2.Singificance of Bone Scan in the Early Diagnosis of Acute Osteomyelitis
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1986;21(2):323-328
Bone imagings have played important role in early detection of acute osteomyelitis. In acute osteomylitis, bone scan findings precede the appearance of bone change on radiograph. Also, recent studies have reported accuracies of bone scan in diagnosis of osteomyelitis ranging from 84% to 100%. But, in above datas, bone scan reading were only qualitative studies. So we have reviewed Technetium-99m labelled methylen dipho sphonate(99mTc-MDP) scan on 21 patients who had been diagnosed acute osteomyelitis by clinical symptoms, blood culture, pus culture and operative findings from January, 1984 to September, 1985. The purpose of this study is to establish the quantitative study of bone scan using computed pixel counting method. The 21 cases were classified into group I and group II according to initial radiographic findihgs. The group I showed normal radiographic finding or soft tissue swelling without osseous change. The group II showed osseous change. The results obtained were as follows: 1. We obtained positive bone scans in the all cases which were confirmed acute osteomyelitis. 2. We experienced diagnosis of acute osteomyelitis by bone scan which was confirmed as early as 48 hours after onset of clinical symptom. 3, In group I, the average uptake ratio of 99mTc-MDP was 3.22±0.82 ranging from 2.20 to 4.80. 4. In group II, the average uptake ratio of 99mTc-MDT was 6.20±2.27 ranging from 4.00 to 9.40. (p <0.001).

The role of the Orthodontist in cleft lip and cleft palate therapy is primarily ill correction of malocclusion which is required by practically every child who has these defects. He can contribute to the assessment of dento-facial growth and development. We may gain the possible limited correction of delayed malocclusion due to cleft lip and palate. The authors have attempted delayed orthodontic treatment of a cleft lip and palate of 12.9 years old girl, who had a cleft lip and palate of surgical closure at 2,3 and 4 years old.

A case of the neurovascalar island pedicle graft for restoration of sensation after amputation of both thumb fingertip pulp in 17 years old male patient is presented at Department of Orthopedic Surgery, College of Medicine, Korea University. Tho island pedicle graft is suggested by Esser firstly and it is very difficult and excitement. At postoperative follow up check within one month, we obtained very good result without other complications.

We analysed forty-six cases of femoral neck fracture treated with internal fixation and followed for more than one year at Korea University Hospital from January 1979 to June 1986 and the following results were obtained. 1. Sex distribution was 23 cases(50%) male and 23 cases(50%) female, and average age was sixty years old (range from 21 to 91 years). 2. The most common cause of injury was slip down(76%). 3. The most common type of fracture was Garden's type III(46%) and Pauwels' type III (67%). 4. In cases of internal fixation, the most commonly used method was closed reduction and multiple pinning under the local aneshtesia(83%). 5. Bony union was established within 5.9 months in average. 6. Among forty six cases, 7 cases(15%) of avascular necrosis, 4 cases(9%) of malunion, and 2 cases(4%) of nonunion was occurred. 7. The clinical results were excellent in twenty cases(43%), good in sixteen cases(35%), fair in seven cases(15%), and poor in three cases(7%) according to Lunceford's assessment.

Access to the craniofacial skeleton and skull base requires osteotomies. An adequate exposure of neoplasms occupying the skull base and the oral cavity and oropharynx, especially retromolar trigone, is very important for precise tumor ablation. The demonstration by Tessier of the capacity for large segments of bone to survive removal and replacement has enabled skull base tumor surgery to grow into a subspeciality. Through the refined craniofacial exposure osteotomies, the surgery is safer, the operation shorter, and the result better both oncologically and reconstructively. We experienced 24 cases of exposure osteotomies consisting of 12 cases transzygomatic approaches, 1 case tranglabellar osteotomy, 1 case lateral transmaxillary approach, 1 case Le Fort II & midline splitting, and 9 cases mandibulotomy. There was no significant complication except a local wound infection in transzygomatic approach and one case of minimal malocclusion after parasymphyseal mandibulotomy. The orthotopic bone graft and the rigid fixation enables the postoperative morbidity to decrease. It seems that the previously inaccessible craniofacial tumors can be treated through the various exposure osteotomies.

Evaluations of residual renal function and the therapeutic effectiveness in renal tuberculosis have largely been dependent on intravenous pyelogram or Contrast-CT scan, even though, exact renal function are not evaluated with there methads. 99mTc-DMSA is a radiopharmaceutical that is trapped in the functioning tubular cells of the kidney and therefore, quantitative renal function could be evaluoted by ineasuring the counts of renal radioactivity and concomittant evaluation of renal morphology could be passible with the analog imapes of the radioactivity. The authors retrospectively analyzed 99mTc-DMSA scans of 75 kidndys of 67 patients with confirmed renal tuberculosis. We classified the morphologies of tuberculous kidneys as 6 types. We classified the morphologies of tuberculous kidneys as 6 types such as the type with small cortical defect, with parenchymal ulcerocavernous lesions, ulcerocavernous fistula to pelvis, mass-like defects, contracted kidney with ureter visualization, and the type with nonvisualization of kidney, corresponding to the characters of renal tuberculous pathogenesis with abscess formation, ulcerocavernous fistula, and fibrosis, and correspondings to the renal anatomy with parenchyma, and pelvocalyceal collecting system. Their mean residual renal functions measured with 99mTc-DMSA uptake rates were 19.0%, 18.4%, 7.9%, 12%, 4.1%, 3.4% respectively.
