PURPOSE: This study is aimed to evaluate the position of mandibular foramen of mandibula prognathism patients using 3-dimensional CT images in order to reduce the chance of an anesthetic failure of the mandibular nerve and to prevent the damage to the inferior alveolar nerve during the orthognathic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The control group consist of 30 patients with class I occlusion. The experimental group consist of 44 patients with class III malocclusion. Three-dimensional computed tomography was used to evaluate the position of the mandibular foramina. RESULTS: The distance between mandibular plane and mandibular foramen, class I was 25.385 mm, class III was 23.628 mm. About the distance between occlusal plane and mandibular foramen, class I was 1.478 mm, class III was 5.144 mm. The distance between posterior border plan of mandibular ramus and mandibular foramen had not statistically significant. About the distance between sagittal plane of mandible and mandibular foramen did not also showed statistically significant. CONCLUSION: The result of this study could help the clinicians to apprehend more accurate anatomical locations of the foramina on the mandible with various facial skeletal types. thereby to perform more accurate block anesthesia of the mandibular nerve and osteotomy with minimal nerve damage. In addition, this study could provide fundamental data for any related researches about the location of the mandibular foramina for other purposes.

A male baby with intrauterine growth retardation had a short neck, small hands and feet, hypospadia, both grade I hydronephrosis, type II atrial septal defect, and moderate valvular pulmonary stenosis. The routine chromosome and banding analyses revealed a 46,XY,rec(8)del(8)(p21)dup(8) (q24.1)inv(8)(p21q24.1)pat chromosome constitution. His mother has normal chromosomes, but the father had 46,XY,inv(8)(p21q24.1). Also his uncle had an inv(8) chromosome constitution. We used lymphocytes and examined 40 mitotic cells. All mitotic cells showed deletion of 8p21-->pter and duplication of 8q24.1-->qter. Because 8p21 involves secretion of macrophage and lymphocyte against cancer cells, long-term follow-up for cancer will be needed.

Cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita (CMTC) is a rare congenital vascular disorder. The skin lesions associated with CMTC include persistent, reticulated vascular patches and telangiectasia, and they are sometimes associated with underlying atrophy and ulceration. The condition is present at birth and tends to improve with age, although some skin lesions remain unchanged throughout life. We encountered two patients with CMTC: a 12-day-old infant and a 21-year-old woman with a history of CMTC since birth. Both patients had localized reticulated purpuric patches with atrophy. During follow-up, although the purpuric patches improved in both patients, there were no changes in the skin atrophy in either patient. Herein, we present these cases showing the changes in the cutaneous features of CMTC over time and demonstrate that CMTC at birth may persist throughout life.
