Primary cardiac tumors are extremely rare and about 20-25% of primary cardiac tumors are malignant. Recently we have experienced a case of primary cardiac rhabdomyosarcoma originated on the right atrial wall. Patient was 41 years-old women and chief complaints were pitting edema and exertional dyspnea. Emergency operation was performed to relieve symptoms by pericardial effusion that hac been seen on the echocardiogram and large soft mass in right atrial cavity on the MRI. About 700ml amounts of bloody pericardial effusion was collected into the pericardial cavity. 4X5X5 cm sized ingrowing soft mass in the right atrial cavity and two small sized outgrowing masses were inspected. A tumor was invaded into the SA node and superior limbic portion of fossa ovalis. And then mass & right atrial free wall was resected but areas of SA node and fossa ovalis were not resected. Defect of right atrial wall was reconstruced with bovine patch. She was discharged after 2 weeks without any problems and she has been treated with chemotherapy.

흉벽에 발생하는 전이성 악성 종양은 드문 질환이며 주위 장기로부터 전이되는 경우가 대부분으로 유방, 폐, 흉막, 그리고 종격동 등으로부터 주로 전이되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 특히 흉부가 아닌 먼장기로부터 전이되는 경우는 더욱 드문 것으로 알려져 있고 원발성 악성 종양이 없이 흉벽 전이에 의해 발현되는 예는 몇몇의 보고만이 있을 뿐이다. 환자는 51세 남자로 전흉벽 좌상부에 촉지되는 종괴로 절제 수술을 시행 후 전이성 간세포암종으로 진단 받았고 당시 검사상 간에 원발성 간세포암종의 증거는 없는 상태였다. 이에 원발성 종양의 증거 없이 간세포암이 흉벽으로 전이된 예를 치험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

The wall thickness of the Ti-6Al-4V Large-Diameter Seamless Tube, which is supposed to be a very important parameter in a system design, was measured during $360^{\circ}$ cold bending processes. The factors or processes affecting the wall thickness include 1) primary bending, 2)secondary or finishing step of the $360^{\circ}$ bending, 3)cleaning processes in CERO TRUTM(CT)process. But thinning effects of the wall thickness during the cleaning processes are negligible compared to those during the formers. The variations in the percentages of the change in wall thickness were found to be from -14% to +16%.

The cell wall components of fruit include cellulose. hemicellulose, pectin, glycoprotein etc., and the cell wall composition differs according to the kind of fruit. Fruit softening occurs as a result of a change in the cell wall polysaccharides : the middle lamella which links primary cell walls is composed of pectin. and primary cell walls are decomposed by a solution of middle lamella caused due to a result of pectin degradation by pectin degrading enzymes during ripening and softening, During fruit ripening and softening, contents of arabinose and galactose among non-cellulosic neutral sugars are notably decreased, and this occurs as a result of the degradation of pectin during fruit repening and softening since they are side-chained with pectin in the form of arabinogalactan and galactan Enzymes involved in the degradation of the cell wall include polygalacturonase, cellulose, pectinmethylesterase, glycosidase, etc., and various studies have been done on the change in enzyme activities during the ripening and softning of fruit. Among cell wall-degrading enzymes, polygalacturonase has the greatest effect on fruit softening, and its activity Increases during the maturating and softening of fruit. This softening leads to the textural change of fruit as a result of the degradation of cell wall polysaccharides by a cell wall degrading enzyme which exists in fruit.

Background: Primary chest wall sarcoma is a rare disease with limited reports of surgical resection. Methods: This retrospective review included 41 patients with primary chest wall sarcoma who underwent chest wall resection and reconstruction from 2001 to 2015. The clinical, histologic, and surgical variables were collected and analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses for overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Results: The OS rates at 5 and 10 years were 73% and 61%, respectively. The RFS rate at 10 years was 57.1%. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed old age (hazard ratio [HR], 5.16; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.71-15.48) as a significant risk factor for death. A surgical resection margin distance of less than 1.5 cm (HR, 15.759; 95% CI, 1.78-139.46) and histologic grade III (HR, 28.36; 95% CI, 2.76-290.87) were independent risk factors for recurrence. Conclusion: Long-term OS and RFS after the surgical resection of primary chest wall sarcoma were clinically acceptable.

Purpose: The alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) is widely conducted for implant placement. However, experimental results using deproteinized porcine bone mineral (DPBM) have been scarce. This retrospective study evaluated factors affecting the primary stability of implants in an area where ARP was performed using DPBM. Materials and Methods: Thirty-eight patients were divided into two groups based on the primary stability, with torque value of 30 Ncm as borderline. To determine the factors that affect the primary stability of implants, we collected data from patients' medical records including age, sex, reentry time, socket location, remaining bone wall at the time of extraction, and type of collagen membrane, as well as from radiographs and histomorphometric analysis. Result: The results showed statistically significant difference for the remaining extraction socket wall (P=0.014), residual graft (P=0.029), and fibrovascular tissue (P=0.02) between the two groups. There was an insignificant tendency toward the time of reentry surgery (P=0.052) and location (P=0.077). All implants placed in sites using DPBM functioned well up to 3 years. Conclusion: Within the limitations of the present study, extraction socket wall, residual graft, and fibrovascular tissue can affect the primary stability at the time of implant placement on grafted sites using DPBM and collagen membranes. In addition, reentry time and locations can be considered. In future studies, comparative experiments in quantified models will be required to supporting the findings.

A comparative study of the structure and organization of the primary and secondary walls in different types of tropical plant waste fibers was carried out using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The thickness of each layer was also measured using Image Analyzer. TEM micrographs haveconfirmed that cell wall structure of all six types of tropical plant waste fibers (empty fruit bunch, oil palm frond, oil palm trunk, coir, banana stem and pineapple leaf) has the same ultrastructure with wood fibre. The fibers consisted of middle lamella, primary and thick secondary wall with different thickness for different types of fibers. The secondary wall was differentiated into a $S_1$ layer, a unique multi-lamellae $S_2$ layer, and $S_3$ layer.

Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the chest wall is extremely rare and is characterized by aggressive features, including a high incidence of local recurrence and distant metastasis. Surgical resection of the chest wall is the primary modality of management. However, surgical treatment is not generally recommended in patients with evidence of distant metastasis. Here, we present a case of chest wall MFH along with a schwannoma mimicking distant metastasis in the right upper arm. The patient was treated by radical en bloc resection and survived for more than 9 years without recurrence.

Traumatic abdominal wall hernia is a rare presentation, most commonly reported in the context of motor vehicle accidents and associated with blunt abdominal injuries and handlebar injuries in the pediatric population. A 13-year-old boy presented with multiple traumatic injuries and hemodynamic instability after a high-speed motor vehicle accident. His injuries consisted of massive traumatic abdominal wall hernia (grade 4) with bowel injury and perforation, blunt aortic injury, a Chance fracture, hemopneumothorax, and a humeral shaft fracture. Initial surgical management included partial resection of the terminal ileum, sigmoid colon, and descending colon. Laparostomy was managed with negative pressure wound therapy. The patient underwent skin-only primary closure of the abdominal wall and required multiple returns to theatre for debridement, dressing changes, and repair of other injuries. Various surgical management options for abdominal wall closure were considered. In total, he underwent 36 procedures. The multiple injuries had competing management aims, which required close collaboration between specialist clinicians to form an individualized management plan. The severity and complexity of this injury was of a scale not previously experienced by many clinicians and benefited from intrahospital and interhospital specialist collaboration. The ideal aim of primary surgical repair was not possible in this case of a giant abdominal wall defect.
