With the arm in hyperabduction, we have carried out 525 procedures of supraclavicular brachial plexus block from Aug. 1976 to June 1980, whereas block with the arm in adduction has been customarily performed by other authors. The anesthetic procedure is as follows: 1) The patient lies in the dorsal recumbent position without a pillow under his head or shoulder. His arm is hyperabducted more than a 90 degree angle from his side, and his head is turned to the side opposite from that to be blocked. 2) An "X" is marked at a point 1 cm above the mid clavicle, immediately lateral to the edge of the anterior scalene muscle, and on the palpable portion of the subclavian artery. The area is aseptically prepared and draped. 3) A 22 gauge 3.5cm needle attached to a syringe filled with 2% lidocaine (7~8mg/kg of body weight) and epineprine(1 : 200,000) is inserted caudally toward the second portion of the artery where it crosses the first rib and parallel with the lateral border of the muscle until a paresthesia is obtained. 4) Paresthesia is usually elicited while inserting the needle tip about 1~2 em in depth. If so, the local anesthetic solution is injected after careful aspiration. 5) If no paresthesia is elicited, the needle is withdrawn and redirected in an attempt to elicit paresthesia. 6) If, after several attempts, no paresthesia is obtained, the local anesthetic solution is injected into the perivascular sheath after confirming that the artery is not punctured. 7) Immediately after starting surgery, Valium is injected for sedation by the intravenous route in almost all cases. The age distribution of the cases was from 11 to 80 years. Sex distribution was 476 males and 49 females (Table 1). Operative procedures consisted of 103 open reductions, 114 skin grafts combined with spinal anesthesia in 14, 87 debridements, 75 repairs, i.e. tendon (41), nerve(32), and artery (2), 58 corrections of abnormalities, 27 amputations above the elbow (5), below the elbow (3) and fingers (17), 20 primary closures, 18 incisions and curettages, 2 replantations of cut fingers. respectively (Table 2). Paresthesia was obtained in all cases. Onset of analgesia occured within 5 minutes, starting in the deltoid region in almost all cases. Complete anesthesia of the entire arm appeared within 10 minutes but was delayed 15 to 20 minutes in 5 cases and failed in one case. Thus, our success rate was nearly 100%. The duration of anesthesia after a single injection ranged from $3\frac{1}{2}$ to $4\frac{1}{2}$, hours in 94% of the cases. The operative time ranged from 0.5 to 4 hours in 92.4% of the cases(Table 3). Repeat blocks were carried out in 33 cases when operative times which were more than 4 hours in 22 cases and the others were completed within 4 hours (Table 4). Two patients of the 33 cases, who received microvasular surgery were injected twice with 2% lidocaine 20 ml for a total of $13\frac{1}{2}$ hours. The 157 patients who received surgery on the forearms or hands had pneumatic tourniquets (250 torrs) applied without tourniquet pain. There was no pneumothorax, hematoma or phrenic nerve paralysis in any of the unilateral and 27 bilateral blocks, but there was hoarseness in two, Horner's syndrome in 11 and shivering in 7 cases. No general seizures or other side effects were observed. By 20ml of 60% urcgratin study, we confirm ed the position of the needle tip to be in a safer position when the arm is in hyperabduction than when it is in adduction. And also that the humoral head caused some obstraction of the distal flow of the dye, indicating that less local anesthetic solution would be needed for satisfactory anesthesia. (Fig. 3,4).

목 적 : 소장조영술과 복부골반 CT검사의 진단 결과를 비교함으로써 방사선학적 영상의 특징 파악 및 질환에 따른 적절한 방사선학적 검사법을 선택하는데 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 1999년부터 2000년까지 소장조영술과 복부골반 CT검사를 병행하여 시행한 환자 284명을 대상으로 하여, 각각의 진단 소견을 병명별로 분류하였다. 소장조영술은 250 ml 황산바륨 현탁액(W/V 40W/V%, Methylcellulose+$BaSo_4$)을 경구로 복용시키고, Rt. recumbent position을 취하게 한 후 약 10분 후에 Carboxymethylcellulose solution(0.5%) 600 ml 복용시켰다. 20분, 40분, 1시간 정규촬영을 하고, 조영제가 회맹판(I-C valve)을 통과하면 투시 하에 저격촬영을 시행하였다. 복부골반전산화단층촬영은 검사 1시간 전에 $BaSO_4$+Methylcellulose 1.5 W/V% 450 ml를 복용시키고 검사직전 450 ml 추가로 복용시켰다. 요오드 성분의 비이온성 조영제 2.5 ml flow/sec로 주입하고, 조영제 주입 후 72초 지연 촬영을 하였다. 촬영은 간 상연에서부터 치골결합 부위까지 continuous scan을 시행하였으며, 검사 protocol은 Helical thick 5 mm, picth 1.375 : 1, speed 27.50, increment 5 mm, 120 kV, 245 mA로 하였다. 결 과 : 소장조영술에서는 정상(Normal)이 131예(46.1%), 감염성 장질환(Inflammatory bowel disease ; 이하 IBS)이 65예(22.9%), ischemia+ileocolitis+vasculitis 22예(7.7%), obstruction+stricture 21예(7.4%)의 순으로 나타났고, 복부골반 CT검사에서는 정상이 103예(36.3%) IBS가 65예(22.9%), wall thickening+lymphadenopathy가 42예(14.8%), fluid collection이 17예(6%)의 순으로 나타났다. 소장조영술과 복부골반 CT검사에서 동일하지 않은 결과로 진단된 경우는 소장조영술에서 정상으로 진단된 132명(46.1%) 중 14예(10.6%), 복부골반 CT검사 결과에서는 wall thickening+lymphadenopathy와 IBS로 진단되어 차이를 보였으며, 복부골반 CT검사 결과 정상으로 진단된 103예(36.3%) 중 5예(5.8%)가 소장조영술에서 ischemia+ileocolitis+vasculitis로 진단되었다. 정상으로 진단 된 235예 중 37예(15.9%)가 서로 다른 결과로 진단되어 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(P<0.05). 결 론 : 본 연구에서 특정질환에 특정검사의 진단결과가 우수하게 나타나는 것으로 조사되었으므로 방사선학적 검사의 진단적 민감도를 높이기 위해서는 처방 및 검사에 있어서 질환에 따른 적절한 검사법의 선택이 무엇보다도 중요하리라 사료된다.

The results observed are summarized as follows: Fluoroacetate poisoning (cattle and goat): in the clinical signs, there were depression, convulsion, dyspnea, groan, grinding of the teeth, vomiting, opisthotonus and post-mortem tympany. In the macroscopical findings, the blood was more or less poor coagulative and dark red, bloody fluid with foam in the trachea, hyperemia and hemorrhage of tracheal mucosa and lung, cloudy swelling and hyperemia of kidney, epicardial hemorrhage(cattle), and hyperemia of abomasum, intestine and brain were observed. In the microscopical findings, there were pulmonary edema and hemorrhage, necrosis of convoluted tubular epithelium and interstitial hemorrhage of kidney, focal coagulative necrosis of myocardium, hemorrhage of pancreas and spleen, dilatation of Virchow-Robin space and hyperemia of brain, and necrosis with desquamation of mucosal epithelia of abomasum and upper small intestine. In the histological lesions of the liver, lobular peripheral hyperemia, centrilobular necrosis and cytoplasmic inclusion bodies of the hetatic cells were observed. The cytoplasmic inclusion body of the hepatic cells was not seen in the affected goat, but hydropic degeneration of the hepatic cells was marked. Zinc phosphide poisoning (cattle and goat): clinically, the affected animals died in recumbent position after ataxia, dyspnea and convulsion. In the macroscopical findings, hyperemia and hemorrhage of lung, cloudy swelling and hyperemia of liver and kidney, hemorrhage of spleen (cattle), and catarrh of abomasum and small intestine were observed. In the microscopical findings, necrosis of the convoluted tubular epithelium and hyperemia of kidney, hemorrhage of spleen, hyperemia of lung, hyperemia or hemorrhage of heart, cloudy. swelling and fatty changes of hepatic cells, dilatation of hepatic central vein, hyperemia of brain, and catarrh of abomasal and small intestinal mucosae were observed. Thallium sulfate poisoning (cattle): in the macroscopical findings dark red color of blood, hyperemia and hemorrhage of lung, bloody fluid with foam in the tracheal mucosa, petechiae of tracheal mucosa, cloudy swelling and hemorrhage of liver, necrotic lesions and hemorrhage of renal cortex and epicardial hemorrhage were observed. In the microscopical findings, severe hemorrhages of the lung, cloudy swelling and necrosis of hepatic cells, hyperemia and hemorrhage of liver, focal coagulative necrosis of mycordium, necrosis of the convoluted tubular epithelium and hyperemia of kidney, hyperemia and hemorrhage of spleen and dilatation of Virchow-Robin apace in brain were observed. Coumarin poisoning (goat): the poisoned animals died in the state of groan and depression. In the macroscopical findings, poor coagulation of blood, hemorrhage of lung, cloudy swelling and severe hemorrhages of liver, cloudy swelling and hemorrhage of kidney, abomasal hemorrhage, catarrh of small intestine, and hyperemia and hemorrhage of the other organs were observed, In the microscopical findings, hyperemia and hemorrhage of lung and kidney, cloudy swelling of the convoluted tubular epithelium of kidney, severe hepatic hyperemia, cloudy swelling and hydropic degeneration of heptatic cell, and hyperemia and hemorrhage of brain and spleen were observed. NaCN poisoning (cattle and goat): clinically, there were convulsion, severe dyspnea, paresis of hind limb, depression and then rigor of four limbs.
