In 1960 Jacobson and Suarez introduced the operating microscope to vascular surgery and demonstrated the superiority of small vessel repair using magnification. The first clinical replantation of an arm in the western world was performed by Malt in 1962, and Komatsu and Tamai reported the successful replantation of a completely amputated thumb in 1965. To perform a digit or hand replantation, microsurgical anastomosis of blood vessels is absolutely essential to revascularize the severed part. Without accurate repair of bone, nerves and tendons in addition to vascular anastomosis, however, it is impossible to gain functional success when replanting a digit or hand. This is a difficult task because all structures must be reconstructed at the same level and time. Even if the repair of some structures has been postponed, the secondary reconstruction may also be troublesome due to circular scarring at the replantation level. Since replantation surgery has been popularized throughout the world in recent years, the replantation sucess rate has increased and the surgeons interest in functional reconstruction of replanted digits or hands has been stimulated. The authors have seen and studied 6 cases of upper Jimb and 20 cases of finger replantation from May, 1980 through January, 1982 at the department of orthopedic surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine. The results were as follows: I. The average age was 20 years and the male to female sex ratio was 4.5:1. 2, The causes of injury are detailed as follows: electric saw(6); cutting machine(5); roller(4}; presser(2); stone(2); others(3). 3. The level of amputation in 26 replantations was as follows: thumb, 3 cases; index finger, 4 cases; middle finger, 9 cases; ring finger, 4 cases; palm, I case, wrist, 3 cases; forearm, 1 case; upper arm, 1 case. 4. The maximum ischemic times for successtul results were 16 hours in limb replantation and 22 hours in finger replantation. 5. Six limbs, with four complete and two incomplete amputations, have been replanted and all six limbs survived: Twenty digits, with nine complete and eleven incomplete amputations, have also been replanted and 6.5 cases of nine complete amputations and 10 cases ot eleven incomplete amputations survived. A total of 22.5 cases(86.5%) of replanted limbs and digits survived. 6. The results of joint motion, two point discrimination, sensory recovery and status of sweating due to recovery ot sympathetic nervous function following replantation were satisfactory. 7. In the early stage of our series, postoperative systemic heparinization was used in some cases, but recently we have achieved good recults without it. 8. Main causes of reattachment failure were tissue crushing and secondary thrombosis of the anstomosed vessels.

Goltz syndrome is known as a rare mesoectodermal hereditary disease, characterized by focal dermal atrophies with hernias of adipose tissue and also associated with a multitude of possible skeletal, dental, ophthalmological and other abnormalities. We experienced a case of Goltz syndrome. An one day old female newborn had focal atrophic and telangiectatic skin lesions, microphthalmia, syndactyly and urinary tract abnormality. The finding of skin biopsy was consistent with focal dermal hypoplasia. We report the case with a brief review and related literatures.

8.Adult flatfoot.

Flatfoot deformity in adults is a type of postural deformity of the foot in which the arch collapses. This condition includes a wide spectrum of clinical situations, ranging from asymptomatic to progressive and disabling pathology. The common causes of adult-acquired flatfoot deformity are sustained flexible flatfoot from childhood, posterior tibial tendon insufficiency, tarsal coalition, generalized inflammatory diseases, neuropathic arthropathy, and posttraumatic deformities. The treatment of adult acquired flatfoot deformity should be individualized in each case, depending on the causes, symptoms, severity of deformity, and flexibility of the deformity. Therefore, it is mandatory for physicians to be acquainted with the basic pathomechanics of flatfoot deformity as well as the diagnostic procedures and treatments for each condition. The treatment usually begins with conservative methods and variable surgical procedures could be selectively performed. This article reviews the basic pathoanatomy, the diagnostic procedures for various causes and the treatment of flatfoot deformity in adult.

OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to evaluate the long term effect of the epidural injections with steroid and local anesthetics in the low back pain patients by assessments of Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores and several relating factors that influence good results. METHOD: Seventy two low back pain patients with or without sciatica were treated with epidural injections of weekly steroid (methylprednisolone acetate) and daily local anesthetics (lidocaine and bupivacaine) for 2 weeks via an epidural catheter. The efficacy of the epidural injections was assessed with Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score at the day of admission (VAS1), discharge (VAS2) and during the long term follow up period (VAS3)(mean : 14 months, 8~24 months). RESULTS: VAS1, VAS2 and VAS3 were 6.22+/-2.03, 3.36+/-1.49, and 3.39+/-1.45 respectively. VAS2 and VAS3 were significantly different with VAS1 (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: Epidural injections of steroid and local anesthetics are effective not only in the short term period, but also in the long term peroid for patients with low back pain with or without sciatica.

Anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) has been used widely in treatment of glenohumeral osteoarthritis and provides excellent pain relief and functional results. Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) was created to treat the complex problem of rotator cuff tear arthropathy. RSA also has been performed for glenohumeral osteoarthritis even in cases where the rotator cuff is preserved and has shown good results comparable with TSA. The indications for RSA are expanding to include tumors of the proximal humerus, revision of hemiarthroplasty to RSA, and revision of failed TSA to RSA. The purposes of this article were to describe comprehensively the conditions under which RSA should be considered in glenohumeral osteoarthritis, to explain its theoretical background, and to review the literature.
