In order to identify the correlations between clinical results and quantitative data of gait analysis, we analyzed the results of 20 cases of total knee joint replacement arthroplasty in 15 patients with degenerative arthritis. We also evaluated the gait analysis of ten age-matched healthy candidates as a control group. Mean follow-up periods were 30 months. Clinical results included post-operative HSS (Hospital for Special Surgery) knee rating scores and the changes of the tibiofemoral angles. The three dimensional gait analysis included clinical assessment, video-taping, three dimensional kinematics and kinetics. The three dimensional kinematics were obtained using a 5 camera VICON system, and the three dimensional kinetic data was collected using two AMTI force plates. There was no statistical difference in linear parameters between the patient and control group. In patients group, however, double support time decreased as the HSS score increased, and range of knee motion and maximum knee flexion increased in accordance with the increase of pain score. Kinematic data of the patients group revealed that some parameters, such as knee flexion during loading response, knee flexion in swing phase, and knee varus during swing phase, were decreased. On the other hand, internal rotation of the knee from initial contact to initial swing was increased when compared with that of control group. There was no significant correlation between the degrees of tibiofemoral angle and coronal plane moment in the patients group. In three cases which showed mild varus instability post-operatively, knee flexion during loading response decreased and valgus moment in midstance increased as compared with the cases without instability. We believe that three dimensional gait analysis will be a good modality for evaluation of the results after total knee arthroplasty. With further accumulation of long term. follow-up data of gait analysis, we might be able to predict the long term results of total knee arthroplasty including possibility of loosening.

The most frequent perioperative cardiovascular event is cardiac dysrhythmia, defined as an abnormality of cardiac rate, rhythm or conduction. Although the occurrence of arrhythmia during the perioperative period is not uncommon, a case of newly developed perioperative atrial flutter which spontaneously converts to atrial fibrillation is rare. We report a case of atrial flutter that developed immediately after induction of general anesthesia, in a 70-year-old male patient who previously had a normal sinus rhythm. Atrial flutter changed spontaneously to atrial fibrillation after discharge to the recovery room. Dysrhythmia was unresponsive to drug therapy, and the atrial fibrillation disappeared after electric cardioversion.

Impaction of an ingested foreign body in the colon is uncommon but surgical or endoscopic intervention is occasionally needed when serious complications such as perforation, obstruction or hemorrhage occur. Several factors may predispose a patient to ingestion and subsequent impaction of lower intestinal foreign body. It is more common in the elderly who wear dentures, in the mentally infirm, in chronic alcoholics or rapid eating. The majority of impaction occurs at narrowing and angulation such as ileocecal valve or rectosigmoid junction. The diagnosis of lower intestinal foreign body should be considered, among more common conditions, in the differential diagnosis of elderly patients who present with altered bowel habits. We report the case with a literature review that successfully endoscopically removed the fish bones impacted in the rectosigmoid colon complicated by rectal bleeding.

PURPOSE: Although laparoscopic appendectomy is a safe and effective procedure for the management of acute appendicitis, laparoscopic appendectomy in pregnancy has not been considered the preferred procedure until recently. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) during pregnancy as compared with the control group that underwent open appendectomy (OA) during pregnancy. METHODS: The clinical data of all the patients who underwent appendectomy during pregnancy at our hospital between 2006 and 2009 was collected and retrospectively analyzed. Nineteen patients underwent LA and 11 patients underwent OA. The general features of the cases, the outcomes and the fetal status were evaluated. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the length of the procedure, the hospital stay and the complication rate between the LA and OA groups. All the laparoscopic procedures were completed without conversion to an open operation. There were no significant differences between the two groups for premature delivery, the delivery type and the birth weight. There were no fetal losses or abortions. CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate that LA was not inferior to OA in terms of the operative outcomes, the complication and both the fetal and maternal safety during 1st and 2nd trimesters of pregnancy. LA could be safely performed even in the 1st and 2nd trimesters of pregnancy using careful patient selection, safe operative techniques and the appropriate application of instruments.

Since Kalloo and colleagues first reported the feasibility and safety of a peroral transgastric approach in the porcine model in 2004, various groups have reported more complex natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) procedures, such as the cholecystectomy, splenectomy and liver biopsy, in the porcine model. Natural orifice access to the abdominal cavity, such as transgastric, transvesical, transcolonic, and transvaginal, has been described. Although a novel, minimally invasive approach to the abdominal cavity is a peroral endoscopic transgastric approach, there are still some challenging issues, such as the risk of infection and leakage, and the method of gastric closure. Hybrid-NOTES is an ideal first step in humans. Human hybrid transvaginal access has been used for years by many surgeons for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Here, we report a transvaginal flexible endoscopic appendectomy, with a 5-mm umbilical port using ultrasonic scissors in a 74-year-old woman with acute appendicitis.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is rarely encountered during pregnancy but its prompt diagnosis and treatment if encountered during pregnancy is important because it can carry considerable morbidity not only for the mother but also for the fetus. It tends to remain undiagnosed because 50~80% of the patients are asymptomatic. Even if they do demonstrate symptoms, those are often nonspecific. The other reason for non-diagnosis is masking of hypercalcemia due to the change of calcium homeostasis during pregnancy. Neonatal tetany can be a clue for the presence and diagnosis maternal hyperparathyroidism. The asymptomatic patient who is diagnosed postpartum when her newborn is symptomatic should undergo elective parathyroidectomy to avoid future complication. We experienced a woman with undiagnosed primary hyperparathyroidism during pregnancy whose two children suffered neonatal tetany. We report this case along with a review of literature on primary hyperparathyroidism in pregnancy and calcium homeostasis during pregnancy.
