Bile leaks are complications that are much more frequent after a high-grade liver injury than after a low-grade liver injury. In this report, we describe the management of bile leaks that were encountered after angiographic embolization in a 27-year-old man with a high-grade blunt liver injury. He had undergone an abdominal irrigation and drainage with a laparotomy on post-injury day (PID) 16 due to bile peritonitis and continuous bile leaks from percutaneous abdominal drainage. He required three percutaneous drainage procedures for a biloma and liver abscesses in hepatic segments 4, 5 and 8, as well as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with biliary stent placement into the intrahepatic biloma via the common bile duct. We detected communication between the biloma and the bilateral intrahepatic duct by using a tubogram. Follow-up abdominal computed tomography on PID 47 showed partial thrombosis of the inferior vena cava at the suprahepatic level, and the patient received anticoagulation therapy with low molecular weight heparin and rivaroxaban. As symptomatic improvement was achieved by using conservative management, the percutaneous drains were removed and the patient was discharged on PID 82.
Nowadays, oral anticoagulants are commonly prescribed to numerous patients for preventing cardiovascular accident such as thromboembolism. An important side effect of anticoagulant is anti-hemostasis. In a major surgery, the oral anticoagulant therapy (OAT) regimen must be changed before the surgery for proper post-operative bleeding control. However, in a minor dental surgery and endodontic surgery, the necessity for changing or discontinuing the OAT is open to debate. In this study, risks of the consequences were weighed and analyzed. In patients who stop the OAT, the occurrence of thromboembolic complication is rare but the result is fatal. In patients who continuing the OAT, post-operative bleeding can be controlled well with the local hemostatic measures. In the endodontic surgery, there are almost no studies about this issue. The intra-operative bleeding control is particularly important in the endodontic surgery because of its delicate and sensitive procedures such as inspection of resected root surface using dental microscope and retrograde filling. Further studies are necessary about this issue in the viewpoint of endodontic surgery.
Congenital duplication of the extrahepatic bile duct (DEBD) is an unusual anomaly of the biliary system. It occurs due to inability of the embryological duplex biliary system to regress. DEBD has various subtypes depending on the morphology and opening of the aberrant common bile duct. It can have distinct complications. We encountered a 38-year-old lady who experienced pain in the right upper abdomen along with a low-grade fever. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography revealed DEBD with multiple calculi in the right hepatic duct (ductolithiasis) and joining of the right hepatic duct with the left hepatic duct in the intrapancreatic region. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography failed to clear the calculi from the right duct. They were then managed by common bile duct exploration and roux-en-Y right hepaticojejunostomy for biliary drainage. Her postoperative period was uneventful. She is currently doing well after three months of follow-up. Hence, a proper preoperative delineation of such rare anomalies is essential. It could avoid inadvertent injury to the bile duct and operative complications.

This is three case-reports of pleomorphic adenomas arising from one parotid gland and two minor salivary glands treated by total parotidectomy and complete enucleation. We conclude as follows : 1. During the parotidectomy, we tried to preserve the facial nerve by retrograde approach to the trunk from the mandibular branch where it passes over the posterior facial vein. Although the paresis of the lower lip following the operation was seen, it disappeared in about 3 months. 2. Microscopically, the tumor of the first patient (case 1) contained equally myxoid and cellular components and showed well encapsulation. 3. In the second patient (case 2), the tumor revealed large areas of hemorrhage, cystic change, dystrophic calcification and stromal hyalinization, but no definite evidence of carcinoma, therefore we labeled this tumer as "atypical mixed tumor". 4. In the third patient (case 3), the tumor showed principally myxoid component and incomplete capsule, but the tumor was well demarcated.
The recent development of cardiovascular surgery as well as aortoarteriogaphy has been established excellent operative result with great aid of limb-salvage. However, less consideration or less experience still exists on the regard of vascular accident and vascular disease, as well as vascular surgery in Korea. During the last 13 years, we experienced only two cases of aorto-iliac occlusion,acute and chronic, regardless of having had more than 300 cases of mitral valvotomy and gradual increasing tendency of arteriosclerosis and hypertension in Korea. Therefore it is noteworthy to report the cases in order to promote the consideration for vascular surgery. Case 1; 52 year old female who had 20 years history of mitral stenosis with uricular fibrillation and received medical treatment for recent 1 year in the medical department. 10 days before admission, acute saddle emboli developed and 15 days after the onset, embolectomy through both common femoral arteries on the groin and abdominal approach was made. The progression of emboll to the right popliteal bifurcation was found by arteriography on operating table and retrograde flushing with heparin solution by the polyethylene catheter inserted through posterior tibial artery. The operation was successful, but 9 hours after operation sudden death occurred. Considering this case, first, mitral valvotomy already before might prevent peripheral embolizatlon, secondarily, the more early detection and surgery might also prevent the progression of emboli. Thirdly, although preoperative or postoperatlve heparinization is controversial for mitraI stenosis, heparinization might prevent additional emboli to vital organs in this case Cases 2; 66 year old female who had 4 years history of left hip and calf intermittent claudication and has had rest pain, inability to walk and ischemic necrosis on the the left leg since last 3 months prior to admission to the orthopedic department under the suspicion of herniated disc. Absence of pulsation on the groin and aortography evidenced aortoillac occlusion predominantly on the left side. Thromboendarterectomy was made and the operative result was successful with absence of claudication, healing of ulcer and aortographic patency of occlusive site. This chronic occlusion is considered to result from arteriosclerosis in origin with the evidence of moderate hypertension, x-ray evidence of calcified plaque on the aortic knob and operative finding of palpable plaques.
Nervous system is clinically important, and involved in most disorders directly or indirectly. It could be injury and be a source of symptoms. Injury of central or peripheral nervous system injury may affect that mechanism and interrupt normal function. An understanding of the concepts of axonal transport is important for physical therapist who treat injury of nerves. Three connective tissue layers are the endoneurium, perineurium, epineurium. Each has its own special structural characteristics and functional properties. The blood supply to the nervous system is well equipped in all dynamic and static postures with intrinsic and extrinsic vasculation. After nerve injury, alternations in the ionic compression or pressures within this environment may interfere with blood flow and, consequently conduction and the flow of axoplasm. The cytoskeleton are not static. On the contrary, elements of the cytoskeleton are dynamically regulated and are very likely in continual motion. It permits neural mobility. There are different axonal transport systems within a single axon, of which two main flows have been identified : First, anterograde transport system, Secondly, retrograde transport system. The nervous system adapts lengthening in two basic ways. The one is that the development of tension or increased pressure within the tissues, increased intradural pressure. The other is movements that are gross movement and movement occurring intraneurally between the connective tissues and the neural tissues. In this article, we emphasize the biologic aspects of nervous system that influenced by therapeutic approaches. Although identified scientific information in basic science is utilized at clinic, we would attain the more therapeutic effects and develop the physical therapy science.
Forty three patients with disease of the aorta were admitted in this department during the period from beginning of 1956 to the end of 1976. They consisted of eighteen cases of aortic aneurysms, eight cases of Takayasu's arteritis, eight Leriche syndromes, six dissecting aneurysms, two aortic coarctations and one case of vascular ring. Of eighteen aortic aneurysms, twelve were operated resulting in eight survivors. Three of four mortalities were in shock preoperatively because of aneurysmal rupture. Among six dissecting aortic aneurysms, four were type III and two were type I according to DeBakey's classification. For the purpose of relief of acute arterial insufficiency in the lower extremities, a re-entry operation grafting a Y-shaped dacron vessel between abdominal aorta and common iliac arteries was performed. The patient regained consciousness soon after the operation and was well until postoperative second day, when severe convulsion developed abruptly and died. And in a chronic case of type III dissecting aneurysm, a dacron graft bypass shunt between ascending aorta and lower descending thoracic aorta with resection of the aneurysm was performed, but acute severe aortic insufficiency developed soon after the operation and fell into intractable heart failure resulting in death. The cause of the aortic insufficiency seems to be retrograde dissection from the proximal anastomosis site in the ascending aorta. Three cases were treated medically with Wheat's regimen. Two of them survived with relief of symptoms. Eight patients of Takayasu's arteritis were all females and aged between twenty and forty-four averaging twenty nine. Bypass graft operation between aortic arch and carotid arteries using Y-shaped nylon prostheses were performed in three patients resulting in death in two cases postoperatively due to severe cerebral arterial insufficiency during the procedure. All the patients with Leriche syndrome were males and over forty. In two cases, bypass graft with Y-shaped dacron vessel between terminal aorta and common iliac or femoral arteries were performed with good result. Thromboembolectomy or thromboendarterectomy was employed in three patients, of whom one was aggravated in sexual problem postoperatively. One out of two aortic coarctations and a vascular ring were treated surgically with excellent results.
Apenetrating head injury by an arrow is extremely rare being only two cases reported in the literature. We report a case of 12-year-old boy who presented with an arrow lodged at the posterior fossa through nasal nostril. He was slightly drowsy, but neurologically intact except a sixth nerve palsy in the left eye. Brain CT showed no intracerebral hemorrhage. The arrow was entered through the right nostril and the tip was stucked in the left cere-bello-pontine angle through the sphenoid sinus. We removed the arrow without craniotomy since the tip was verified smooth and no cerebral arteries were in contact with the arrow. The patient recovered well without any significant complications. The sixth nerve palsy resolved completely after six months. The verification of the shape of the offending material, a retrograde removal of the arrow in the direction of its line of trajectory, and an identification of adjacent cerebral arteries seem to be important in the management of this type of injury.
Objective : The sub-axial injury classification (SLIC) and severity scale was developed to decide whether to operate the cervical injured patient or not, but the reliability of SLIC and severity scale among the different physicians was not well known. Therefore, we evaluated the reliability of SLIC among a spine surgeon, a resident of neurosurgery and a neuro-radiologist. Methods : In retrograde review in single hospital from 2002 to 2009 years, 75 cases of sub-axial spine injured patients underwent operation. Each case was blindly reviewed for the SLIC and severity scale by 3 different observers by two times with 4 weeks interval with randomly allocated. The compared axis was the injury morphology score, the disco-ligamentous complex score, the neurological status score and total SLIC score; the neurological status score was derived from the review of medical record. The kappa value was used for the statistical analysis. Results : Interobserver agreement of SLIC and severity scale was substantial agreement in the score of injury morphology [intraclass correlation (ICC)=0.603] and total SLIC and severity sacle (ICC value=0.775), but was fair agreement in the disco-ligamentous complex score (ICC value= 0.304). Intraobserver agreements were almost perfect agreement in whole scales with ICC of 0.974 in a spine surgeon, 0.948 in a resident of neurosurgery, and 0.963 in a neuro-radiologist. Conclusion : The SLIC and severity scale is comprehensive and easily applicable tool in spine injured patient. Moreover, it is very useful tool to communicate among spine surgeons, residents of neurosurgery and neuro-radiologists with sufficient reproducibility.

Axillo-bifemoral (Ax-Fem) bypass are now well accepted for bilateral iliac artery occlusion as the second best option. This extra-anatomical (unnatural) bypasses, however, have various hemodynamic liabilities affecting the patency. Hemodynamic conditions of each different type of Ax-Fem bypass were assessed with computer simulation model to determine the hemodynamically more sound type. Simulation models of five different types of Ax-Fem bypass were constructed. Our investigation based on the computer simulation models have shown distinct differences between two most popular Lazy-S type and Inverted-C type on the distribution of flow volume, shear stress and recirculation zone, etc., though both types have shown similar clinical results. Lazy-S type has shown better hemodyanmic status than inverted-C type. The theoretical advantage of "Lazy-S" type has never been adequately proved for its superiority clinically over the inverted-C type. Inverted-C type is now in more favor with clinically better results in spite of many hemodynamic liabilities including retrograde flow to the branching graft. The improvement of over-all long-term patency rate of various extra-anatomical bypasses is still warranted through proper correction of the hemodynamic liability. Even though clinical outcome of the extra-anatomical bypass has been equal regardless of the type of crossover femoral graft configuration, there are distinct differences on the hemodynamic characteristics among various types of configuration. Further hemodynamic study in the pulsatile flow status is warranted to correct hemodynamic defects with proper modification of various hemodynamic factors of each model.
