Objective: Acne scarring is the most common sequela after dermal inflammation caused by acne. Many methods are currently used to treat acne scarring; doctors using traditional Korean medicine have also attempted to treat acne scarring in a new way that was developed from traditional methods. This study examines the effectiveness of re-cell therapy.Method: Eleven patients with various types of acne scars were treated by re-cell therapy. We used the global acne scarring classification (GASC) and ECCA (from the French “echelle d’evaluation clinique des cicatrices d’acne”), both of which are generally used to measure and grade the degree of acne scarring.Results: As a result of the treatment, the conditions of all patients were conspicuously improved in both scales. The GASC scores of the patients changed from grade 19.6±10.4 to grade 4.9±3.3 (p=0.001), and the ECCA scores changed from grade 120.9±28.7 to grade 41.8±18.3.Conclusion: Re-cell therapy showed effectiveness in treating acne scarring and could be applied in clinical cases.

Spinal cord infarction in vascular impairment of spinal cord is rare in the world. and besides, because spinal cord has small cross-sectional area and almost all tract of sensory system and motor system pass away, spinal cord disease is one of the terrible diseases, that leaves usually permanent and severe neurological sequela. The case is about a patient who is 57 years old woman. Both of her legs were suddenly paralyzed and her case was diagnosed as spinal cord infarction in medical center. In our hospital, we focussed on her basic physiological condition-defecation, urination, dormitio, diet, etc. In the case of this patient, power and sense of both legs with physiolocal condition improved remarkably through Sasang Constitutional Medicine with rehabilitative therapy.

Intraorbital wooden foreign bodies may present difficulties in diagnosis due to their radiolucent nature. Delayed recognition and management can cause significant complications. We present a case report that demonstrates these problems and the sequela that can follow. A 56-year-old man presented with a 3-cm laceration in the right upper eyelid, sustained by a slipping accident. After computed tomography (CT) scanning and ophthalmology consultation, which revealed no fractures and suggested only pneumophthalmos, the wound was repaired by a plastic surgery resident. Ten days later, the patient's eyelid displayed signs of infection including pus discharge. Antibiotics and revisional repair failed to solve the infection. Nearly 2 months after the initial repair, a CT scan revealed a large wooden fragment in the superomedial orbit. Surgical exploration successfully removed the foreign body and inflamed pocket, and the patient healed uneventfully. However, the prolonged intraorbital infection had caused irreversible damage to the superior rectus muscle, with upgaze diplopia persisting 1 year after surgery and only minimal muscle function remaining. We report this case to warn clinicians of the difficulties in early diagnosis of intraorbital wooden foreign bodies and the grave prognosis of delayed management.

Tracheal granuloma, the most commonly reported sequela of pediatric tracheotomy. A variety of techniques are available for the management of tracheal granuloma. Potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser has been previously established as an acceptable technique for removal of laryngeal surgery, which emits a green light with a wave length of 532 nm, which is well-absorbed by hemoglobin and can coagulate and vaporize tissue. The ability to deliver laser energy through a flexible glass fiber makes the technique convenient for use with a rigid bronchoscope, overcoming problems with intraluminal access encountered with earlier attempts at CO2 laser therapy for this problem. Another advantage of KTP laser is the avoidance of the risks and morbidity associated with an open procedure. We report our surgical technique KTP laser in the management of tracheal granuloma removal into the tracheostomy site. KTP laser is good tool for management of tracheal granuloma with low incidence of complications.

This study aimed to help build a quality control program to improve cardiac arrest treatment via analysis of medical records in a local tertiary general hospital to evaluate factors that influence clinical outcomes of in-hospital cardiac arrest. At first, the medical records of in-hospital cardiac arrest were analyzed, and targeted surveys about functional and structural factors associated with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) were conducted amongst the workforce in charge of cardiac arrest treatment. From January 2012 through June 2013, a total of 486 adult cases of in-hospital cardiac arrests, except for those occurring in the emergency room, were enrolled in this study. Among the patients, those of recovery of spontaneous circulation were 57.8%; 13.8% of patients were discharged alive; 8.9% of patients were discharged without significant neurologic sequela. Despite CPR is usually successful when administered as quickly as possible, in this analysis showed that prompt reaction after initial recognition was significantly lower in nurses compared with doctors. Analysis of survey results showed that confidence in performing CPR was significantly associated with the experience of CPR in doctors, while in nurses educational experience showed a correlation. In order to improve quality of in-hospital CPR system maintaining and increasing confidence of CPR performance is the most important factor. Therefore it can be helpful to develop and apply a phased, customized education program using training simulators as well as personalizing them to increase the personnel's confidence in CPR performance.

An 11-year-old neutered male Dachshund dog weighing 7 kg presented with acute onset of respiratory distress after subcutaneous administration of cytosine arabinoside (CA). The patient previously diagnosed with meningoencephalitis of unknown origin and was being treated with oral prednisolone, levetiracetam, potassium bromide, gabapentin, and periodic subcutaneous CA administration (50 mg/m², q 12 h, subcutaneous, 4 times, every 3 weeks). The patient developed tachypnea with labored respiratory effort after 9th CA administration. Thoracic radiograph revealed bilateral diffuse interstitial to alveolar pulmonary opacities, and echocardiogram indicated no evidence of left-sided heart failure. Based on the onset coinciding with the administration of CA, low possibility of other pulmonary disease, remission of symptom showed after discontinuation of CA, we suspected CA-induced interstitial lung disease. The patient's pulmonary opacities on the radiograph improved to a similar degree as before the adverse event over time, but respiratory symptoms were not fully resolved. Sildenafil (2 mg/kg, per oral, q 12 h) was given as therapeutic trial to manage possible pulmonary hypertension, suspected a sequela of the lung disease, based on an echocardiographic evidence and clinical signs. The patient's respiratory symptom was well managed since, and achieved discontinuation of sildenafil.
