  • The effects of radiation therapy on salivary function of parotid gland were studied 20 male patients by radiation for tumors of head and neck. Saliva samples were collected before, during the radiotherapy and follow up. Parotid salivary function was quantitatively evaluated using a sialometry, sialochemistry, and scintigraphy. Salivary flow rates decreased in all individuals after irradiation. Glands than were partially irradiated were more likely to have some residual function than fully irradiated glands. Sodium and chloride contents were increased in parotid saliva of radiation patients where as potassium content was not changed definitively, pH was not changed during radiotherapy, but increased during follow up period. Scintigraphic stimulatory response rates showed similar result as flow rates. These results showed that exclusion of partial parotid gland from radiation is necessary to prevent severe xerostomia.

  • Traumatic abdominal vessel injury is rare, but difficult to manage. Approaching the injured vessel and controlling the bleeding is very hard. We experienced the right iliac artery transection managed by iliofemoral bypass grafting using temporary balloon occlusion. Proximal occlusion of an iliac artery with a temporary balloon cab be an option or bridge technique for a definite operation in case of iliac artery rupture. So, we present our case.

  • Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is the condition of having an abnormally low platelet count with an unknown cause. Acute subdural hematomas (ASDHs) usually develop in trauma patients and often involve a high bleeding tendency. However, ITP patients rarely have a large ASDH, and when a traditional decompressive craniectomy is performed on patients with coagulopathy, the mortality rate is higher because of the greater bleeding risk. We report the case of an ITP patient with a large ASDH who treated with a burr-hole trephination and irrigation and who was discharged without any neurological deficit.

  • Since the first description of Kikuchi disease(Subacute necrotizing lymphadenitis) in Japan, 1972, this condition has been reported in a worldwide. The etiology remains unknown. This disease shows a marked predilection for young woman, and a few cases in children has been reported. The usual initial clinical manifestation is localized cervical lymphadenopathy with fever, weight loss and myalgia. We experienced a 6 year-old girl of subacute necrotizing lymphadenitis with ANA, therefore report a brief review with the related literatures.

  • This 18-year-old male patient had a massive epistaxis after motorcycle traffic accident on 1st day of admission. There were no other significant brain parenchymal lesion on initial brain CT exam, except multiple pneumocephalus and basal skull fracture lines. We treated epistaxis conservatively till vital signs were corrected, and then conventional cerebral angiogram was followed. On angiogram, there was traumatic pseudoaneurysm on C5 portion(by Fischer) of ICA, so we treated it only by endovascular stenting. For the purpose of sparing parent arterial patency, endovascular stenting on pseudoaneurysm may play a role with safety and good results.

  • Extensive bone loss associated with severe vascular injury remains a challenge for lower extremity reconstruction. The fibular free flap has been utilized for many decades to reconstruct long-segment tibial defects. We present an unusual scenario of unilateral weight-bearing, wherein we salvaged the sole lower extremity by transfer of the fractured ipsilateral fibula and a bipedicled skin flap. A 38-year-old man sustained a severe crush injury in the right leg with loss of circulation. His left lower leg had a soft tissue defect measuring 20×15 cm with an exposed comminuted fracture and a 17-cm tibial defect, along with a segmental fracture of the fibula. Subsequently, we reconstructed the tibial defect by transferring a 17-cm-long section of the ipsilateral fibula. We covered the soft tissue defect with a bipedicled skin flap. The patient eventually began to ambulate independently after surgery.
