2.Review of 87 patients with reoperation due to cholelithiasis
Journal of Practical Medicine 2001;395(3):21-22
Study on 87 patients of cholelithiasis (52 males, 35 females) who were reoperated in Hospital No 7, Hi Dng (1996 - 2000) has shown that: Ultrasonography and X-ray should be performed before and post-operation. The patients, who were reoperated many times, should be indicated for choledoco enteroanastomosis.

For undercorrected esotropia after bilateral medial rectus(MR) recession, we performed unilateral or bilateral MR rerecession, unilateral rerecession or marginal myotomy of the recessed medial rectus muscle combined with lateral rectus(LR) resection, or unilateral LR resection. The correction of deviation was 15 delta in unilateral 2.0mm MR rerecession. Bilateral 2.0mm MR rerecession corrected 20 to 25 delta of esodeviation, but undercorrection was noted in one case. With unilateral 2.0mm rerecession or marginal myotomy of the recessed medial rectus muscle combined with 5.5mm or 8.0mm LR resection, the correction of deviation was 26 to 29 delta, and there was no under- or overcorrection. The corrective effect of this procedure was therefore greater and more stable than that of bilateral 2.0mm MR rerecession. Unilateral 8.0mm LR resection performed 3 months after bilateral MR recession showed correction of 15 delta, whereas the same procedure performed 3 weeks after bilateral MR rerecession showed correction of 24 delta. Unilateral LR resection procedure seems to be more efficacious for residual esotropia if performed as soos as possible within 3 months after sufficient bilateral MR recession or rerecession.

Repeated surgery of the lumbar spine after lumbar discectomy was not uncommon. Total 817 cases of lumbar disorders were carried out surgical intervention in author's clinic from Jan. 1993. to May 1997. Among them, 82 cases were reoperated cases after lumbar disc surgery. The causes, methods and outcome of reoperation were reviewed. The most common causes of reoperation was epidural adhesion, and the most frequent method of reoperation was the interbody fusion with adhesiotomy. Epidural fibrosis was the major problem and must be studied forward for preventing reoperaion.

Development of new surgical devices and approaches for management of injuries to the cervical spine has offered various methods of treatment available. Making it is not easy in choosing the most suitable method of treatment. We present our experience and results of 90 operations performed during the past eight-year-period(1986-1993) including 10 halo-vest applications. The timing of operation was within 7 days posttrauma in 34.2%, 8-14 days in 27.4%, 15-28 days in 1.0%, and over 28 days in 27.4%. In 18 cases of upper(C1-3) cervical spine injuries, 23 operations were performed, all approached from the posterior. In 5 cases of lower(C4-7) cervical spine injuries, 67 operations were performed, the anterior approach used in 33 patients and the posterior approach in 18 patients. Halo-vest was applied in 6 patients with upper cervical spine injuries and in 4 patients with lower cervical spine injuries. The halo-vest was inadequate in maintaining the stability of the injured spine in 5 out of 0 cases. The complication rate was 23.3% in postrior approaches and 32.4% in anterior approaches. Overall, 27 complications(0%) occurred in 90 operations, and the reoperation rate was 16.4%(85 operations for 73 patients, except for the halo-vest applications). Internal fixation with a variety of devices has become a popular procedure for ervical spine injuries. Despite the popular and wide usage of such devices, the occurrence of complications and the need to reoperate has rendered the procedure to be applied with much caution regarding its technical aspects and possible problems it may pose. In our study, the rate of reoperation and complications following such procedures were quite high. We conclude that in choosing the most proper surgical approach for ervical spine injuries with minimal occurrence of any complications, a stringent criteria should be adhered to rather then easily select the more fashionable, new of fancy devices over the traditional techniques.

8.The Effect of Reoperation in Inferior Oblique Overaction.
Journal of the Korean Ophthalmological Society 2008;49(6):967-972
PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of re-recession or extirpation of inferior oblique (IO) muscle in recurrent or undercorrected IO overaction (IOOA). METHODS: We reviewed the records of 26 patients (33 eyes) with the recurrent or undercorrected IOOA after the graded recession of IO muscle, who underwent re-recession or extirpation of IO muscle, and was followed up for at least 6 months. We performed extirpation of IO muscle overacting larger than +2 after 14 mm recession of IO muscle or larger than +3 after 10 mm recession of IO muscle. In case of +2 IOOA after 10 or 8 mm recession of IO muscle, we carried out 14 mm re-recession of IO muscle. IOOA under +1 was defined as a successful case after re-operation. RESULTS: Thirty one of 33 eyes (93.9%) were corrected successfully after re-operation; 24 eyes with extirpation of IO muscle (96.0%) and 7 eyes with 14 mm re-reccession of IO muscle (87.5%) were successful. CONCLUSIONS: One of the advantages of graded recession of IO muscle is that additional re recession or extirpation of IO muscle can be preformed if needed. Extirpation or 14 mm re-recession of IO muscle was effective re operation procedure to correct a recurred or undercorrected IOOA.

10.Application of Lateral Approach for the Removal of Migrated Interbody Cage: Taphole and Fixing Technique.

When a revision surgery related with removal of failed interbody cage is required, going through the previous passage can lead to a higher risk of neurological deficits or incidental dural injuries. Recently, the lateral approach has become a popular method instead of the conventional anterior or posterior approaches. The lateral approach is also useful method to remove failed interbody cage previously placed and re-do interbody fusion with lower risks compared to revision surgery via previous passage. However, there is still some difficulty in retrieving the interbody cage from the intervertebral space because of no spacious passage, subsidence, and uncontrolled movable cage. In this study, we introduce our experience that we removed failed interbody cage more easily with only the simple additional steps of making a taphole and fixing the cage using a thread-tipped stick.
