방파제의 경사면에 거치된 콘크리트 피복재의 단면파괴에 대한 신뢰성 해석을 수행하였다. 신뢰함수는 피복재의 흔들림 또는 동요의 크기를 정량적으로 나타내는 회전각의 함수로 유도되었다. 방파제 단면에 거치된 피복재의 재질적 성질 및 기하학적 형상과 관련된 확률변수들의 단면파괴에 미치는 영향 정도가 자세히 해석되었다. 또한 파고의 함수로 피복재 개개의 단면파괴에 대한 파괴확률이 산정 되었다. 마지막으로 Bernoulli과정과 허용파손율의 개념을 동시에 고려하여 피복재의 단면파괴가 어떻게 방파제 제체의 파괴확률로 이어지는가가 해석되었다. 허용파손율 개념은 본 연구에서 도입된 것으로, 허용파손율을 어떻게 정의하느냐에 따라 피복재의 단면파괴에 의하여 유발되는 방파제 제체의 파괴확률이 다르게 거동되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다 따라서 상대적으로 수심이 깊은 곳에 중량이 큰 콘크리트 피복재를 사용하여 방파제를 설계할 때는 수리학적 안전성뿐만 아니라 구조적 안전성도 중요하게 고려되어야 한다.

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical outcome of an operation with early rehabilitation from ankle fracture in accordance with the injury type. Materials and Methods: A total of 136 patients (70 males and 66 females) who underwent surgery and early rehabilitation for ankle fractures between December 2008 and December 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. The average age was 47.9 years, with a range of 18~79 years. The mean follow-up period was 28.7 months, with a range of 24~102 months. All patients were classified in accordance with the Lauge Hansen classification and anatomic fracture site. Moreover, the presence of ligament injuries were documented. A short-leg cast was applied postoperatively for two weeks; thereafter, patients began the range-of-motion exercises after cast removal. Full weightbearing was allowed at 2 weeks postoperatively. Each patient was assessed radiologically and clinically based on the OlerudMolander score, visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain, joint stiffness, and capability of single heel raising. Results: Seventeen patients (12.5%) complained of postoperative pain (VAS score 1~3), and the incidence was higher in patients with trimalleolar fractures or associated ligament injuries. Twenty-three patients (16.9%) complained of postoperative ankle stiffness. The mean Olerud-Molander score was 75.4/80 (range, 55~80). Olerud-Molander scores were lower in patients with ligament injuries than in those with fracture alone. There was no nonunion or fracture displacement even after early weightbearing walking. Conclusion: In this retrospective series, early rehabilitation after surgical restoration of ankle mortise by anatomical reduction and stabilization was shown to be successful. Earlier motion exercise and weightbearing walking can minimize fracture complications like joint stiffness or weakness in ankle fracture.

A four months old, 3.6 kg intact female Miniature Dachshund dog was referred for non-weight bearing lameness at right hind limb due to car accident. On physical examination, the patient was non-weight bearing on the right hind leg and had moderate swelling in the proximal to middle tibia region. There was palpable crepitus. Radiographs revealed a slightly displaced, spiral, oblique fracture involving the proximal diaphyseal region of the right tibia. Fibular fracture was also noted. Internal fixation was performed to repair the fracture. Due to bowed shape of fractured tibia, it was not possible to apply K-wire, containing appropriate diameter ($60{\sim}80%$ of bone marrow diameter) for intramedullary fixation. We fixed the bowed tibia fracture using a smaller diameter (30% of bone marrow diameter) K-wire with cross pins and cerclage wires. Four weeks after the operation, radiographs demonstrated healing of the tibia fracture as well as the fibular fracture.

A common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) was presented with inability to stand and fly at Chungnam Wild Animal Rescue Center. The kestrel showed non-weight bearing ambulation on both legs and crepitation with no external wound. Radiographs revealed a fracture on mid-diaphysis of right tibiotarsus and a distal end fracture of left femur. Intramedullary pinning was chosen for reduction of both fractures. The right tibiotarsal fracture was corrected first, and left femur was repaired 5 days later. The kestrel was managed with a specially designed sling to prevent further iatrogenic damage for 2 weeks. Three weeks after the surgery, the kestrel was able to stand and found to perch in 4 weeks. On 5 weeks, The kestrel could fly free at outdoor aviary and was released through rehabilitation for 3 months finally.

Recently, open reduction and internal fixation has been the treatment of choice for displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures for many orthopaedic surgeons. However controversy still surrounds the optimal treatment with regard to whether displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures should be treated operatively or conservatively. Conservative treatments include use of splint, rest, leg elevation, icing, use of analgesics and early mobilization. Operative treatment is open reduction and internal fixation, performed through an extensile lateral approach with interfragmentary screws and application of a neutralization plate. We reviewed the question of whether operative treatment by open reduction and internal fixation provides a benefit compared with conservative treatment for displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures.

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign disease that causes replacement of the medullary bone with fibrous tissue in one or more bones. Long bone like femur, tibia and fibular are often affected and occurring under 30 years old. We report a case of two solitary lesions of fibrous dysplasia with pathologic fracture treated with bone curettage, bone graft, plate fixation, who complains of lower leg pain.

Psoas compartment block has been used to provide anesthesia and analgesia of hip joint. This block is advocated for relief of pain of various origins in the thigh, leg and lumbar area. A-40-year-old women complained of pain in the left thigh and lumbar area after operation of the second lumbar vertebral compression fracture. To relieve pain, caudal block was performed. This block reduced in lumbar pain but left thigh pain persisted. So, we were performed psoas compartment block using mepivacaine and dexamethasone, which relieved the pain in the left thigh and lumbar area. We recommend psoas compartment block as useful and simple method for patients with thigh and lumbar area pain, especially when the epidural block is not feasible.

Rare complications of distal tibia fracture are claw-toe deformity, cavus deformity and checkrein deformity. These complications may be due to contracture of the muscles of the deep posterior compartment of the leg after a compartment syndrome. These 4 cases were treated by selective tendon lengthening of flexor tendon at the retromalleolar level.

Massive bleeding due to traumatic pelvic bone fracture is a leading cause of death. Thus, several methods to control bleeding have been attempted, but none of these has yet been clearly established. After an automobile accident, a 34-year-old motorist was admitted to the Emergency Department for right hip,leg and abdominal pain. Because the patient's pressure remained consistently low and pelvic bone fracture and abdominal bleeding were found on radiologic examination, an explorative laparotomy was performed. After pelvic packing and bleeding control, bleeding still continued, so Angiography was performed, and arterial embolization for bleeding was performed.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is frequently associated with inflammatory lesions of the spine and continuous fatigue stress fractures; however, an association with an intraspinal synovial cyst has not been previously reported. A 55-year-old man with a five year history of AS who presented with back pain and a right radiculopathy was admitted to the hospital. Five years previously, he underwent a percutaneous vertebroplasty for an osteoporotic L1 compression fracture, and was diagnosed with AS at that time. Plain radiographs showed aggravated kyphosis and a stress fracture through the ossified posterior element, below the prior vertebroplasty. Magnetic resonance images revealed a right foraminal cystic lesion at the L2-L3 level with effacement of the nerve root. A 1.6 cm cystic lesion that appeared to arise from the L2-L3 facet joint without direct communication was excised from the L2-L3 foramen. Pathological examination confirmed synovial cyst. The patient's symptoms resolved immediately after surgery except for a mild dysesthesia of the right leg. We report herein a rare case of foraminal synovial cyst associated with AS accompanying posterior element fracture with a review of literature.
