The frontal sinus has importance from the aesthetic and functional points of view, so management of the frontal sinus should be conducted. The management may differ with the severity of displacement, the extent of displacement, as well as the involvement of the brain and nasofrontal duct. Fifteen patients with frontal sinus fracture were managed differently depending on the severity of their injuries for between 14 and 31 months, and then evaluated. During the follow-up period, encountered no complications and the overall result of the foreh ead contour was satisfactory.

Journal of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons 1998;25(6):1046-1052
This retrospective study comprise 595 patients with facial bone fractures in various accidents and treated in the department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the Chung Buk National University Hospital between September 1991 and December 1997. The medical records of these 595 patients were reviewed and analyzed in order to obtain the clinical pattern and understand the therapeutic modalities. The following results were obtained. 1. The most prevalent age group was the third decade(35.1%). 2. The monthly incidence was the highest in September and the most common accident time was between 6:00 p.m. and midnight. 3. The most common etiology was motor vehicle accidents(59.5%) followed by assault(26.2%), fall(11.4%), sports(2.7%). 4. The male predominated over female in 4.27:1 ratio. 5. The most common fracture site was nose(30.0%) followed by mandible(26.7%), zygoma(23.3%), orbit(8.6%), maxilla(8.1%), frontal sinus(3.2%). 6. The most common fracture site of mandible was parasymphsis(34.9%) followed by angle(27.1%), condyle(23.4%), symphysis(14.5%). 7. The soft tissue injury was the most common associated injury(51.1%). Fcial soft tissue injuries were sustained by 53.3% in the highest rate associated with the associated injuries. 8. Open reduction was used for 63.7% of total cases while 33.8% of total cases required closed reduction, and 2.5% of total cases treated conservatively. 9. The complication rate was 14.1% and the ophthalmologic complication rate comprise 44.9% of all complications.

Hydrogen sulfide poisoning is frequently encountered in the workplace. Two workers lost their consciousness in an underground tank at a factory producing paper. The tank contained liquid mixture of used paper, sodium oxygenate chloride(NaOC1), and sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate(NaSO3 5H90). A worker(worker A; 36-year-old man) entered tank to remove sludge. When worker A lost his consciousness, worker B entered the tank to rescue worker A, however he lost consciousness inside the tank. We discuss in detail the clinical features of this condition. Hydrogen sulfide poisonings have occurred in industries involving petroleum refining, the manufacture of heavy water, tanning of hides, vulcanization of rubber, and the manufacture of rayon. And it is necessary to stress the health education for workers and managers in these industries.

OBJECTIVES: To know the present conditions of industrial accidents in automobile factories in Korea and make the basic materials essential to prevention of industrial accidents METHODS: We reviewed and analyzed the records of industrial accidents occurred in an automobile factory in 1997 by time of occurrence, job categories(fixed production, skilled trades, mechanical material handling, and clerical 8r technical), type of injury, kind of accident, and location of injury. RESULTS: 1. By age groups, the accident rate was the highest in age 45-49(1.6 %o) followed by age 35-39(1.3 %), 40-44(0.9 %), 30-34(0.9 %), 25-29(0.6 %), and 20-24(0.4 %) and by working duration, it was highest in group of experience over 25 years, and so we could see that the more age or working duration increases the more accident rate increases. 2. By work time, the accident rate was the highest in 10-11 a.m. (21.4 %) followed by 2-3 p.m. (17.9%). By the day of the week, it was as follows, Friday(20.5%) Wednesday (17. 9%), Monday (16. 2 %), Thesday (15. 4 %), Saturday (12. 0 %), Thursday(11.1 %), Sunday(6.8 %) in order. By the month, it was high in May(17.9 %), March(11.1 %), and April(11.1 %) followed by August(10.3 %) and January(9.4 %), so we could see it was high in spring. 3. The most frequent injury was in the back by 41.0 % followed by 17 cases in fingers(14.5 %), legs(9.4 %), hands(7.7 %), head(6.0 %) in order. And by the type of injuries, the sprain was most frequent by 38. 5% followed by fracture(22. 2 %, lumbar HNP(11.1 %), and contusion(9.4 %) in order. The causes of accident were handling heavy materials(34.2 %), upset(17.1 %), stenosis(16.2 %), and falling(6.8 %) in order. CONCLUSIONS: By the above results, to prevent the industrial accidents in automobile factories in Korea, preventive activities for handling heavy materials and back injury, and continuous industrial education are necessary.

9.Clinical Study on the Postoperative Adhesive Smal Bowel Obstruction.
Journal of the Korean Surgical Society 1997;52(1):37-46
This clinical report is a review of the medical records of the 161 cases of postoperative adhesive intestinal obstruction treated at the Department of Surgery, Chung-Goo Sungsim General Hospital during 5 years from January 1991 to December 1995. The results of the study are as follows; 1) The most frequent age group was the 4th decade and the most prevalent age groups in the strangulated intestinal obstruction were below 10 years and above 60 years. 2) There was no difference among the types of previous abdominal operations in terms of the possibility of the strangulation. 3) The incidence of postoperative complication in the strangulated intestinal obstruction(58.3%) was higher than that in the non-strangulated intestinal obstruction(7.7%). 4) The overall mortality rate was 2.5%. The mortality rate in the strangulated intestinal obstruction was 8.3%, and was higher than that in the non-strangulated intestinal obstruction. 5) It is ideal to operate just before progression to strangulation, but it is not easy to decide when it happens. An operation should be considered in the following cases. (1) The presence of two or more symptoms; abdominal pain, obstipation, vomiting and abdominal distension. (2) The presence of two or more signs; leukocytosis, fever, tachycardia, localized abdominal tenderness, rebound tenderness and continuous abdominal pain. (3) Clinical signs of deterioration after 72 hours of conservative treatment.

10.A Clinical Review of the Treatments of Pancreatic Pseudocyst.
Journal of the Korean Surgical Society 1998;54(2):277-282
This is a retrospective clinical analysis of 27 cases of pancreatic pseudocysts that were treated at the Department of Surgery, Chung Goo Sung Sim Hospital, from 1988 to 1996. The results are as follows:1) The ratio of males to females was 12.5 :1, and the highest incidence was in the 4th decade. 2) Acute & Chronic Pancreatitis was most frequently associated with pancreatic pseudocysts (72.4%). 3) The most frequent symptom of patients with a pancreatic pseudocyst was abdominal pain (92.5%), and the most common site of the pancreatic pseudocyst was the tail of the pancreas (55.6%). 4) Of the 7 cases involving pseudocysts of less than 5 cm, 6 cases were managed conservatively and 1 case surgically . In the 15 cases with sizes from 5 cm to 10 cm, percutaneous catheter drainage was performed in 7 cases, with sizes larger conservative management in 5 cases and surgical management in 4 cases. In the 5 cases with sizes larger than 10 cm, percutaneous catheter drainage was performed in 3 cases and surgical management in 1 case. 5) Cases involving conservative management and percutaneous drainage (average:31 & 34 days), respectively had shorter hospital stays than surgical menagement (42 days). 6) Complications of pancreatic pseudocysts, such as intra-abdominal abscesses, cutaneous fistulas, pulmonary complications, wound infection, leakage or rupture, etc, were relatively common after surgery. In conclusion, we propose that conservative management and percutaneous catheter drainage are first-line treatment modalities for pancreatic pseudocysts if the clinical conditions of the patient can tolerate them.
