Spontaneous rupture of symphysis pubis during delivery is rare condition. The overall incidence is 1/600~1/30000 deliveries. The Separation was associated with considerable pain, swelling and tenderness over the symphysis pubis and confirmed roentgenographically. The condition was treated conservatively with bed rest, mostly in the lateral decubitus position, aided by a restrictive pelvic binder. Mobilization was initiated after pain relieved. Recovery can be expected to be complete. We present a case of spontaneous rupture of symphysis pubis during delivery with a brief review of the literature.

Separation of the symphysis pubis in association with delivery is very rare. The Korean orthopedic and obstetrical literature pertaining to this syndrome is absent. The physiological widening is small and asymptomatic, but a separation of more than one centimeter may occur and in usually symptomatic. A twenty-six-year-old woman of separation of symphysis pubis associated with delivery was treated successfully with the treatment of reduction and pelvic band, with absolute bed rest in the lateral decubitus position.

4.Adrenal tumors: surgical treatment
Ho Chi Minh city Medical Association 2003;8(3):158-159
Both benign and malignant tumors in adrenal glands could make hypersecretion syndrom arised. Benign tumor usually has small size, homogenous intensity on cross-section. Opening surgery to remove the adrenal gland remains a safe and effective operation. However, a well trained surgeons can remove the tumors by endoscopy. It is an invasive interference with a short term hospitalisation with very low rate of complications.

Testicular adrenal rest tumors (TART) occur often as asymptomatic nodules in corticotropin-dependent lesions aberrant adrenal tissue in congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) patients. The present manuscript is about an unusual case of a 16-year-old CAH patient due to 11beta-hydroxylase deficiency. He underwent testicle biopsy because of testicle tumor suspicion and diagnosed with TART.

6.Treatment for Acute Stage Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Type II with Polydeoxyribonucleotide Injection.
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 2016;59(5):529-532
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) type II is a syndrome that develops after nerve injury. Symptoms may be severe, and vary depending on the degree of sympathetic nerve involvement. As yet, there is no satisfactory treatment. We report the case of a female patient who had an L5 left transverse process fracture and an S2 body fracture, who developed symptoms of CRPS type II in her left lower leg that were aggravated during ambulation in spite of absolute bed rest for one month after the trauma. Several treatments, including bed rest, medication, and numerous nerve blocks were attempted, but the pain persisted. We finally tried injection of polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) solution at the left L5 transverse process fracture site because we knew of the anti-inflammatory effect of PDRN. One day after this treatment, her symptoms had almost disappeared and three days later, she was discharged. We will also further discuss the possibility of using PDRN solution for the treatment of CRPS.

Separation of symphysis pubis during vaginal delivery is rare condition with incidence ranging from 1/500 to 1/30000 deliveries. The injury is caused by fetal head exerting pressure on pelvic ligaments that have been relaxed by progesterone and relaxin. The separation might be associated with considerable pain, swelling and tenderness over the pubic area. Diagnosis is based on clinical findings and X-ray findings. The condition is treated conservatively with bed rest, analgesics and physical therapy. Prognosis is exellent. We experienced 3cases of separation of symphysis pubis during vaginal delivery and report these cases with a brief review of literature.

We report four cases of spontaneous intracranial hypotension that were investigated by radionuclide cisternography Tc-99m-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid radionuclide cisternography of all our patients showed direct sign of cerebrospinal fluid leakage as well as indirect signs of less activity than expected over the cerebral convexities and rapid appearance of bladder activity. The headache of all patients was eventually controlled with bed rest and hydration.

The incidence of postspinal headache is one of the well known complications of spinal anesthesia. Several factors such as needle size, bevel direction, multiple dural puncture and previous history of postspinal headache were thought to influence the incidence of postspinal headache. This studies were done to see the effect of needle size (22 and 25 gauge needle) and needle bevel direction (parallel, vertical, oblique insertion to the longitudinal dural fiber) on the incidence, duration, severity and location of spinal headache in the 548 patients underwent spinal anesthesia. The following results wre observed: 1) Neither needle size nor needle bevel direction had effect on the incidence of severity, duration and location of postspinal headache. 2) The ineidence of headache was 8.8% (48 cases), 3) The onset of headache was 1~2 day (67%) and duration of headache was 4~5 day (85%) in postanesthetic day. 4) The severity of headache was mild and moderate in 77% cases. 5) In the half cases, headache was relieved by means of bed rest alone.

10.Surgical Treatment of Femoral & Popliteal Arteries Thrombosis Caused by Collagen Material Closure Device: A case report.
The Korean Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery 2005;38(5):396-399
Manual or mechanical compression followed by 4 to 8 hours of bed rest is still the standard technique for accessing site management of the femoral arterial puncture site. But these methods are often uncomfortable and delay hospital discharge. Recently, a number of new devices to achieve hemostasis have been developed. These devices uses collagen to facilitate local hemostasis. But many complications associated with the use these devices have been reported internationally. We present a case of successful treatment of Rt. femoral and Rt. popliteal arteries thrombosis caused by Angioseal.
