Congenital anomalies of the hand were reviewed, which were treated at Seoul National University Hospital from 1973 to 1982. The Conclusions are as follows. 1. Polydactyly is the most common congenital anomaly of the hand in this series. The next common congenital hand anomalies are trigger digit, syndactyly in that order. 2. Better results had been obtained with early reconstructive surgery within one year after birth. 3. Authors propose a new classification of polydactyly. In Joint type (type 1), the extradigit has its own epiphysis in its origin,and in Epiphyseal plate type (type 2) the extradigit do not have its own epiphyseal plate and seems to be derived from the physis of the more developed adjacent digit. We observed 22 cases of joint type and 10 cases of epiphyseal plate type. 4. 6 cases of macrodactyly had been observed. The complicated reconstructive surgery such as Tsuge and Barsky operation resulted in digital necrosis. So more simple and effective operation such as symphalangization would be attempted.

It had heen emphasized the necessity for upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examinations in patients. Who has had gastrectomy and presents persisting gastrointestinal symptoms. This study was conducted to evaluate endoscopic findings and clinical symptoms in patients following gastrectomy. (continue...)

Craniofacial clefts are rare among facial anomalies with an incidence of 1.5 to 5 per 100,000 births, and 1 per 100 cases of cleft lip and palate. The Tessier No. 7 clefts are unusual lesions that result from failure of the embryonic mandibular and maxillary processes to properly fuse and form the corners of the mouth. We experienced a case of Tessier No. 7 craniofacial cleft in a 1 day-old female patient who presented with a macrostomia and auricular malformation. The diagnosis was established by clinical and radiographic findings. A brief review of literature was made.

It is commonly believed that the branchial anomalies are persistent remnants of the embryologic branchial apparatus. These anomalies are originated from branchial cleft and most commonly involved in second branchial deft. Clinically they present palpable mass, discharge from fistula, recurrent infection due to obstruction of Gstula tract. As respiratory symptoms, they may present hoarseness, preceeded by or associated with upper respiratory infection. However, it has not been reported that they caused airway obstruction in newborn infants. Wc experienced a case of the fourth branchial deft cyst in a 2 day old infant who showed respiratory difficulty due to airway obstruction.

9.What can we do for dying neonate in NICU?.
Korean Journal of Pediatrics 2009;52(8):851-855
Death is not only a medical problem; it is also an ethical problem. When doctors face a dying neonate, their knowledge of bioethics and the opinions of ethical specialists and religious leaders are helpful for them and the family of the dying baby. In recent years, due to the increase of surviving babies who have suffered from severe illness, those born too small or too early, and those with severe anomalies in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), we have met with complicated bioethical problems frequently. To lessen the burdens of doctors and the parents of the dying baby, I reviewed medical, ethical and religious articles about bioethics in adult death. My suggestions are listed as follows: 1) regular bioethical education and activation of bioethical committees in NICU, 2) a well-controlled nationwide database, 3) a hospice unit space and programs for dying baby in NICU, and 4) social support for pregnant women and financial support for the NICU.
