The conventional treatment of skeletal Class III malocclusion has been focused on application of orthopedic force primarily to the mandible. However, In Class III malocclusion with retrograde position or underdevelopment of Maxilla, this approach is not suitable treatment. These patients need an application of orthopedic forces via face-mask to the Maxilla to stimulate its growth and to change the direction of growth. In skeletal Class III patients who were treated by Face-Mask, the following results were obtained. 1. Forward growth of Maxilla was enhanced. 2. Labioversion of upper incisors and linguoversion of lower incisors were observed. 3. Mandible was rotated to clockwise direction and remodeling of B point was observed. 4. Anterior crossbite was corrected by combining of the above results.

We developed a new systematic calibration procedure and applied it to the calibration of the diffusivity, segregation and TED model of the indium impurity. The TED of the indium impurity was studied under 4 different experimental conditions. Although the indium proved to be susceptible to the TED, the RTA was effective in suppressing the TED effect and in maintaining a steep retrograde profile. Just as in the case of boron, indium demonstrated significant oxidation-enhanced diffusion in silicon and its segregation coefficients at the Si/SiO₂ interface were significantly below 1. In contrast, the segregation coefficient of indium decreased as the temperature increased. The accuracy of the proposed technique has been validated by SIMS data and 0.13-㎛ device characteristics such as Vth and Idsat with errors less than 5% between simulation and experiment.

The gallbladder is a pear-shaped, thin walled sac located on the inferior surface of the liver between the right and quadrate lobe, in a recess called fossa vesicae felleae. It is 7.5cm-12.5 cm in length, 3.5 cm in the largest width, and has a volume of about 45 ml with a remarkable capacity for expansion. There are many kinds of diagnostic methods to evaluate diseases of biliary tract including gallbladder-Plain abdomen, Oral cholecystography. Intravenous cholangiography, Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography(PTC), Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography(ERCP), Operative or T-tube cholangiography, Ultrasonography, Radioisotope study, Computed tomography, and Angiography. Especially, ultrasonography is the most effective and noninvasive study in these days. Plain abdomen, oral cholecystography, intravenous cholangiography, and ultrasonography have been performed in our clinic. Methods and findings of above mentioned study are discussed with consideration of references.

A case of Fasciola gigantica-induced biliary obstruction and cholestasis is reported in Turkey. The patient was a 37-year-old woman, and suffered from icterus, ascites, and pain in her right upper abdominal region. A total of 7 living adult flukes were recovered during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). A single dose of triclabendazole was administered to treat possible remaining worms. She was living in a village of southeast of Anatolia region and had sheeps and cows. She had the history of eating lettuce, mallow, dill, and parsley without washing. This is the first case of fascioliasis which was treated via endoscopic biliary extraction during ERCP in Turkey.

Ventricular septal defect associated with patent ductus arteriosus is well known cardiac anomaly that can be treated successfully by operation. This anomaly is found at low frequency. Seven cases of the combined malformation were operated on during the period from 1959 to 1978 in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital. Right heart catheterization and retrograde aortogram can diagnose the disease correctly. Staged operation in one case and one-stage operation in 5 patients were done. In all cases of the open heart surgery the closure of the ductus was done by transpulmonary suture of the PDA opening. Among 6 patients of the open heart surgery 2 operative death [33.3%] and one late death [total 50%] were noted. Four type II and one type I and one Type IV VSDs were found. In one case the anomaly was accompanied with aortic insufficiency by herniation of the right coronary cusp through Type I VSD.

Donor availability is a major limiting factor in heart transplantation. Prolonging donor heart preservation would facilitate distant heart procurement. The setup used was the isolated retrograde perfused nonworking rabbit heart model and 4 hours of preservation at 2oC. And the electron microscopic findings of the myocardium were evaluated after reperfusion for 5 minutes. The following three groups [each group, n=4] were prepared: Group I: the heart was arrested with the St. Thomas Hospital solution [STH] and stored in Ringers lactate solution [RLS]; Group II: the heart was arrested with STH and stored in Modified Collins-Sachs solution [MCS]; Group g: the heart was arrested with and stored in MCS. The result was the most severe myocardial injury in the Group III on electron microscopic study.

The diffuse form of supravalvar aortic stenosis represents a surgical challenge when the ascending aorta, aortic arch, proximal descending thoracic aorta and arch arteries are involved. It can be treated by a variety of surgical approaches. We report a case of severe diffuse supravalvar aortic stenosis combined with an aortic valve anomaly and occlusion of the right coronary artery ostium in a 14-year-old boy with Williams syndrome. We enlarged the aortic root(Nick's procedure), ascending aorta, aortic arch, proximal descending thoracic aorta, and innominate artery with patches and replaced aortic valve with 19 mm St. Jude valve. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and retrograde cerebral perfusion were used during repair of the arch and arch artery.

In the last few years there has been a resurgenceof interest in in-situ saphenous vein arterial bypass for lower extremity revascularization because of improved patency rates. we performed 1 in situ bypass oreration using the intraluminal valve-disruption tecnique. A 65-year-old female who had ztherosclerotic obstruction in the superficial and popliteal arteries underwent in situ saphenous vein arterial bypass. After harvesting of saphenous vein, we used LeMaitre retrograde valvulotome for valve-disruption technique. Completion of the arterrigraphy was performed to evaluate bothh the anastomoses. The two side brances were all ligated. In situ saphenous vein arterial bypass has become the procedure of choice for distal reconstruction in severely ischemic lower extremities because of improved long-term patency compared with reversed-saphenous vein bypass procedure.

Isolated injury to the pancreas after abdominal trauma is uncommon, and a delay in diagnosis and treatment can increase the morbidity and mortality. Therapeutic decisions with respect to pancreatic trauma are usually made based on the site of injury and the status of the pancreatic ductal system. In this report, we describe the surgical management of pancreatic head transection as an isolated injury following blunt abdominal trauma. A 55-year-old man presented with epigastric pain that radiated to the back. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a hematoma in the pancreatic head and upstream dilatation of the main pancreatic duct. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography showed complete disruption of and contrast leakage from the main pancreatic duct in the pancreatic head region with a nonenhanced upstream duct. Emergency pancreaticoduodenectomy was successfully performed, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 9 without any complications.

forty-five claw lamed cows with pododermatitis circumscripta, hyperplasia interdigitalis, and dermatitis verrucosa were treated surgically through resection of necrotic tissues, currettage, antibiotics application, and compressive bandage, under retrograde intravenous regional anesthesia of claw. At 7 days postoperation were showed lameness score 0, absense of swelling of extremitis, without fistulation and purulent exudate in wound. Mean duration time of action of local anesthetic drug was 75 minutes and mean operation time for treatment of pododermatitis circumscripta, hyperplasia interdigitalis, and dermatitis verrucosa was 35 minutes, 20 minutes, and 21 minutes, respectively.
