4.The First Neurosurgical Analysis of 8 Korean Children with Sotos Syndrome.
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society 2008;44(4):240-244
OBJECTIVE: Sotos Syndrome is characterized by macrocephaly, overgrowth, and developmental delay, and more than 300 patients have been reported worldwide to date. The authors reviewed the clinical characteristics of 8 patients with Sotos Syndrome in Korea for a new understanding and treatment strategies. METHODS: The medical records of a total of eight Korean children with Sotos Syndrome were reviewed. All patients underwent developmental checkup, lumbar punctures for measurement of intracranial pressure (ICP), brain and spine magnetic resonance imaging and computerized tomography. RESULTS: All 8 patients showed macrocephaly and the characteristic craniofacial features of Sotos Syndrome. Other clinical characteristics shown were overgrowth (7/8), developmental delay (7/8), congenital heart defect (3/8), flat foot (8/8), scoliosis (4/8), spina bifida (8/8), hydrocephalus (4/8), cavum vergae (3/8), and increased subdural fluid collection (5/8). Mean ICP measured via lumbar puncture was 27.35+/-6.25 cm H2O (range 20 to 36 cm H2O). Two patients received ventriculo-peritoneal shunt, and 1 patient underwent subduro-peritoneal shunt with improvement. Spinal orthosis was applied to 4/5 patients with scoliosis and 4/8 children with flat foot were provided with foot orthosis. CONCLUSION: In this first Korean study of 8 Sotos Syndrome patients we demonstrated the presence of spina bifida and increased ICP, which had not been previously described. The authors therefore suggest that all patients with Sotos Syndrome should undergo examination for the presence of spina bifida, and that shunt procedures would improve development and alleviate clinical symptoms.

The ankle is a complex, weight bearing joint consisting of tibia, fibula, talus, and many soft tissue structures, which play an important role biomechanically. The injuries to the ankle joint include not only fractures of bone but significant injuries of ligaments and other soft tissues. It is very important to understand the mechanisms of trauma in order to make definite diagnosis and proper treatment. The author' analysed 127 eases(126 patients) of the ankle fractures which were admitted and treated in Orthopaedic Department,Hanyang University Hospital from January 1978 to December 1985. The results obtained from this study were as follows: 1. Of the 127 cases, male was 90 cases(70.87%), female was 37 cases(29.13%), and average age of the patients was 37.6 years. 2. Open fractures were 12 cases(9.4%) and closed fractures were 115 cases(90.6%). 3. According to the classification of Lauge-Hansen, the most common type of the ankle fracture was supination-external rotation type (35.43%). 4. Of the 127 cases, 63 cases were treated by closed reduction and 64 cases by open reduction. 5. The average period of the cast immobilization after open reduction was 7.8 weeks, where as that of closed reduction was 10.5 weeks. 6. According to clinical and radiological assessment of the result of the treatment, open reduction was better than closed reduction. 7. The best result of the treatment was noticed in supination-adduction type, according to the classification of Lauge-Hansen. 8. Accurate reduction and rigid internal fixation of the fractured lateral malleolus and distal fibuIa was important in treatment of the ankle fracture.

Paget's disease is one of the chronic disorders of skeletal system which is frequently accompained with pathologic fractures. This disease is extremely rare in Korea and only three cases have been reported in the Journal of Korean Orthopaedic Associstion. And all these cases were not associated with pathologic fracture. We experienced a case of Paget's disease with pathologic fracture of the femur which is typical in radiologic, laboratory and histopathologic findings.
