We experienced a case of unilateral vocal cord paralysis following tracheal extubation. The patient was a 60-year-old man undergoing subtotal gastrectomy. He had no laryngeal symptoms prior to operation and the trachea was intubated with a cuffed endotracheal tube. The surgical procedure lasted 6 hours and was uneventful. Three days later after operation, he began to complain of hoarseness and mild aspiration symptom. On endoscopic examination, left vocal cord paralysis was found. Fifteen weeks later the voice and left vocal cord function return to normal without specific management. In this case, we suggested that possible causes of unilateral vocal cord paralysis are compression of recurrent laryngeal nerve by overexpanded endotracheal cuff, laryngeal trauma during difficult intubation, stretching of the nerve as a result of traction on distant organ, decreased elasticity of trachea and surrounding tissues in the older age group and long operating time.

Here we report an autopsy case of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) with severe hypertriglyceridemia (12,900 mg/dl). A 29-year-old woman with a history of type 1 diabetes was found dead at a motel. There was no injury on external inspection, but a lump of cheese-like material was noted in the heart at autopsy and peripheral blood plasma had a creamy appearance. After postmortem biochemical analysis, we made a diagnosis of DKA with severe hypertriglyceridemia and concluded that these unusual autopsy findings were caused by DKA and postmortem change. Uncontrolled diabetes often causes DKA and hypertriglyceridemia. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report in Korea of DKA with severe hypertriglyceridemia diagnosed by autopsy.

5.The accuracy of the radiographic method in root canal length measurement.
Journal of Korean Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology 1998;28(2):471-490
For the successful endodontic treatment, root canal should be cleaned thoroughly by accurate mechanical and chemical canal preparation and sealed completely with canal filling material without damaging the periapical tissues. The accuracy of the root canal length measurement is a prerequisite for the success of the endodontic treatment, and the root canal length is often determined by the standard periapical radiographs and digital tactile sense. In this study, the accuracy and the clinical usefulness of Digora(R), an intraoral digital imaging processor and the conventional standard radiographs were compared by measuring the length from the top of the file to the root apex. 30 single rooted premolars were invested in a uniformly sized blocks and No.25 K-file was inserted into and fixed in each canal. Each block was placed in equal distance and position to satisfy the principle of the bisecting angle and paralleling techniques and Digora(R) system's image and standard periapical radiographs were taken. Each radiograph was examined by 3 different observers by measuring the length from top of the file to the root apex and each data was compared and analyzed. The results were as follows; 1. In the bisecting angle technique, the average difference between the Digora(R) system and standard periapical radiograph was 0.002 mmand the standard deviation was 0.341 mmwhich showed no statistically significant difference between the two systems(p>0.05). Also, in the paralleling technique, the average difference between these two system was 0.007 mmand the standard deviation was 0.323 mmwhich showed no statistically significant difference between the two systems(p>0.05). 2. In Digora(R) system, the average difference between the bisecting angle and paralleling technique was -0.336 mmand the standard deviation was 0.472 mmwhich showed a statistically significant difference between the two techniques(p<0.05). also> 3. In Digora(R) system and the standard periapical radiographs, there was a statistically significant difference between the measurement using the bisecting angle technique and the actual length(p<0.05). but there was no statistically significant difference between the measurement using the paralleling technique and the actual length>0.05). In conclusion, the determination of the root canal length by using the Digora(R) system can give us as good an image as the standard periapical radiograph and using the paralleling technique instead of the bisecting angle technique can give a measurement closer to the actual canal length, thereby contributing to a successful result. Also, considering the advantages of the digital imaging processor such as decreasing the amount of exposure to the patient, immediate use of the image, magnification of image size, control of the contrast and brightness and the ability of storing the image can give us good reason to replace the standard periapical radiographs.
