A Hanwoo cow with a delayed gestation and abdominal distension was delivered following PGF_2α injection. There was excessive amniotic fluid, and a male calf was delivered but died immediately. The calf had no eyes and nose, and a cleft palate on the upper jaw. Gross appearance and computed tomography image showed that upper teeth were spread out on both sides due to cleft palate in the upper jaw, and lower jaw and teeth were positioned upward. There were no other brain parts except cerebellum. These findings show a rare case of hydramnios related to fetal congenital deformity in a Hanwoo cow.

Medication used during pregnancy may affect the growth of fetus and maintenance of pregnancy so that it may cause fetal deformity or abortion. Before 1940 it was recognized that only genetic factor could affect the incidence of fetal deformity and the teratogen was protected by placenta barrier. But since the report that Thalidomide caused phocomelia was announced in l962 and 1962, it was acknowledged that the placenta barrier was imperfect. In oriental medical care, there were so many prescription used during pregnancy for nausea, threatened abortion, recurrent spontaneous abortion and it was acknowledged that those medication did not harm both maternity and fetus. Most of them are composed of the material that was not classified as prohibition during pregnancy. But we thought that it should be demonstrated through objective methods that these materials do not affect the incidence of fetal deformity or abortion and have the effect of preventing abortion and maintenance of pregnancy. As the first step of that study we researched 78 prescription and each materials, their kinds and using frequency, used for illness and symptoms during pregnancy written in Dongeuibokam(東醫寶鑑) so that we got to know the tendency about what materials are used for each illness and symptoms.

Cerebral palsy(CP) is one of the most common motor disease, due to brain injury during fetal and neonatal development which results in neuromotor paralysis and associated neuromuscular symptoms. Features of CP include motor disability due to the lack of muscle control, often accompanied by sensory disorders, mental retardation, speech disorders, hearing loss, epilepsy, behavior disorders, etc. There are increasing chances of treatment of dental patients with cerebral palsy, as the occurrence of CP is increasing with the decrease in infant mortality and an increase in immature birth and premature birth and also, there is a trend to pursue of higher quality of life. Reports on the relationship between CP and maxillofacial deformity are uncommon, but it is well known that the unbalance and discontrol of the facial muscles, lip, tongue and the jaws leads to malocclusion and temporomandibular joint disorders, and statistics show that class 2 relationship of the jaws and open bite is frequently reported. However, it is difficult to perform maxillofacial deformity treatment, which consists of orthodontic treatment, maxillofacial surgery and muscle adaptation training, due to difficulties in communication and problems of muscle adaptation caused by difficulties in motor control which leads to a high recurrence rate. This case report is to trearment of maxillofacial deformity in CP patient. A 26 year old female patient came to the department with the chief complaint of prognathism of the mandible and facial asymmetry. According to the past medical history, she was diagnosed as cerebral palsy 1 week after birth, classified as GMFC, classII accompanied with left side torticollis. The patient's intelligence was moderate, and there were no serious problems in communication. For two years time, the patient underwent lingual frenectomy, pre-operation orthodontic treatment and then bimaxillary orthognathic surgery to treat mandibular prognathism and facial asymmetry followed by rehabilitatory exercise of facial muscle. After 6 months of follow up, there was a good result. This is to report to the typical signs and symptoms of DFD in CP patient and the limitation of the usual method of the treatment of DFD in CP patient with literature review.

Purpose: This study was designed to establish safety and efficacy of using herbal medicine during pregnancy. Methods : We searched through 23 sources, which had been previously published frome 1988 to 2007, concerned patients that used herbal medicine during pregnancy. We searched diseases for that used herbal medicine, kinds of herbal medicine taken, the period of herbal medicine taken, the duration of herbal medicine taken and results of herbal medicine taken. Results: 1. Whaltae(habitual abortion) was the most of diseases that used herbal medicine during pregnancy. Second disease was hyperemesis gravidum. Third disease was Taegibulan (fetal restlessness). 2. The most of Herb medicines of used for Whaltae was Kyoesamultang and Anjeonecheontang. The most of Herb medicines of used for hyperemesis gravidum was Bosaengtang. The most of Herb medicines of used for Taegibulan was Kyoesamultang. 3. The time of herbal medicine taken mostly was the first period of pregnancy. The rate was 78%. 4. The duration of herbal medicine taken mostly was $18.58{\pm}14.24day$ at mean. 5.

Cleft lip and/or palate is the congenital orofacial malformation most commonly occurred in humans, The disease is multifactorial and is probably caused by genetic and/or environmental factors, So, there are many problems in research concerning etiology and in treatment of the disease, Even the most practiced and sophisticated methods of surgical repair are necessarily followed by scar contraction and fibrosis, which result in skeletal defects, dental abnormalities, cosmetic disfigurement, and speech impairment, As a result, Fetal surgery can be considered but practiced rarely when the deformity is not fatal to life, And treatment of cleft palate is performed in the form of medicine projection into uterus in animal experiments, Many studies show that growth factor and its receptor emerge from the developing palate; and the epidermal growth factor receptors have a important role in craniofacial development and in palatal fusion, The palatal morphogenesis of the avine is different from the mammal's; it takes the form of physiologic cleft palate, Recently, cleft palate fusion experiment was performed when the avine were in the period of palate formation through the exogenous TGF-β3 addition, and it showed that the exogenous TGF-β3 makes fusion of divided palate through certain process when cleft palate is occurred in palatal formation, In this study, I had the conformation of the fusion of cleft palate through the addition of TGF-β in case of chicken embryo, and observed the effect of TGF-β in EGF receptor distribution, And the following is the results of this study, 1. In case of the TGF-βl and β3 addition group, there was the decrease of EGFR(Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) immunoreactivity in mesenchymal cells beneath the medial edge epithelium and also in epithelial mesenchymal interface which is between medial edge epithelium and nasal septum in 72 hours, 2, The immunoreactivity of the control group resembles that of normal chicken embryo palate in development, 3. In the view through fluorescence confocal microscopy, there was confluence in TGF-β3 addition group, This shows that the confluence induced by exogenous TGF-β3 is related to EGFR expression in palate of chicken embryo, which is a physiologic cleft palate model.
