OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to obtain basal information to establish a proper birth-encouraging policy in the future through the survey of the attitude towards childbirth and its related factors among female students in junior, senior high school, and university. METHODS: A survey was performed for 2 weeks in June, 2006, for a total of 688 female students which included 185 ones in a girls' junior high school and 242 ones in a girls' senior high school in Sacheon, and 261 ones in two universities in Jinju. The selfadministered questionnaires developed by the authors included the socio-demographic characteristics, the attitude towards childbirth, the preference of a son for their future child, the belief on relative importance of family or work after marriage, the seriousness perception of low birth rate in Korea, frequencies of education in school about low birth rate. The attitude was measured by an answer to the question of 'To what degree do you think you are going to have a child(or children)?' RESULTS: The proportion of positive attitude towards their future childbirth was 76.2% in junior high school, 63.9% in high school, and 82.8% in university students (p<0.01). In the logistic regression analysis, the significant factors related with positive attitude towards future childbirth were school grade, preference of a son for their future children, and belief on relative importance of family or work after marriage. CONCLUSIONS: It suggests that the related factors with positive attitude towards future childbirth need to be considered to make a proper birth policy.

The ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a rare but serious complication of ovulation induction therapy with gonadotropin. The pathogenesis of OHSS is unclear, but the proposed mechanisms are the production of vasoactive substances that increase local capillary permeability resulting in shifting of fluid from the intravascular space to the third space. The clinical manifestations varies from ascites, hypovolemia, oliguria, hemoconcentration, thromboembolism, and even death. We have experienced a case of severe OHSS with severe ascites, pleural effusion and bilateral enlarged ovaries associated with spontaneous pregnancy without any ovarian stimulation for ovulation induction.

Mucocele arised at the vermiform appendix is uncommon, either benign or malignancy and their clinical presentation is not specific. The preoperative diagnosis is rare,1 and their diagnosis is an incidental event. Mucocele seems to be developed due to chronic obstruction of the lumen of the appendix. Higa and Cowerkers2 classified 73 cases of "mucocele" into three clinicopathologic entities; focal or diffuse mucosal hyperplasia, mucinous cystadenoma, mucinous cystadenocarcinoma. Appendiceal mucoceles are rare lesions of the appendix, characterized by a gross enlargement of the appendix from accumulation of mucoid substance within the lumen. It is encountered in only 0.1-0.4% of all appendectomies with a female predominance and an average age at the time of diagnosis over 50 years. A case of appendiceal mucocle found during total hysterectomy is presented with a brief review of the literatures.

OBJECTIVES: In three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT), the cant is evaluated by measuring the distance between the reference plane (or line) and the tooth. The purpose of this study was to determine the horizontal skeletal reference plane that showed the greatest correlation with clinical evaluation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The subjects were 15 patients who closed their eyes during the CT image taking process. The menton points of all patients deviated by more than 3 mm. In the first evaluation, clinical cant was measured. The distance from the inner canthus to the ipsilateral canine tip and the distance from the eyelid to the ipsilateral first molar were obtained. The distance between the left and right sides was also measured. In the second evaluation, skeletal cant was measured. Six reference planes and one line were used for the evaluation of occlusal cant: 1) FH plane R: Or.R - Or.L - Po.R; 2) FH plane L: Or.R - Or.L - Po.L; 3) F. Ovale plane R: Rt.F.Ovale - Lt.F.Ovale - Or.R; 4) F. Ovale plane L: Rt.F.Ovale - Lt.F.Ovale - Or.L; 5) FZS plane R: Rt.FZS - Lt.FZS - Po.R; 6) FZS plane R: Rt.FZS - Lt.FZS - Po.L, and; 7) FZS line: Rt.FZS - Lt.FZS. RESULTS: The clinical and skeletal cants were compared using linear regression analysis. The FH plane R, FH plane L, and FZS line showed the highest correlation (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The FH plane R and FH plane L are the most appropriate horizontal reference plane in evaluation of occlusal cant on 3D-CT.

The calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) is a rare disorder of the jaws and shows various radiographic features. The purpose of this study is to describe the different radiographic appearances of 2 cases of COC. Case 1 was located in the posterior maxilla extending into maxillary sinus, showing unilocular radiolucency with a well-defined margin. Cortical bone expansion and thinning were prominent. Root resorption of adjacent teeth was apparent. Case 2 showed unilocular radiolucency with a calcified material. Calcification was supposed to be dystrophic dental hard structures, detected at the periphery of the lesion. Ghost cell and proliferation of ameloblastoma-like tissues were common features for these two lesions on histopathological findings. This reports presented common and atypical radiographic features of the COC.

A 60-year-old man visited the outpatient clinic due to one month of recurrent exertional chest pain. Eleven years earlier he had undergone off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting using bilateral internal thoracic artery (ITA) Y-composite grafts based on the left ITA. Preoperative coronary angiography showed patent distal graft anastomoses and visualized the left ITA retrogradely. The arch aortography revealed near-total occlusion of the left subclavian artery at the level of the ostium. The patient underwent left carotid-to-subclavian artery bypass grafting using a 6 mm vascular conduit. Postoperative computed tomographic angiography revealed a patent bypass conduit between the left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 4 with no symptoms or signs of myocardial ischemia.

INTRODUCTION: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) has various advantages and is used favorably in many fields in dentistry. Especially, CBCT is being used as basic diagnostic tool for 3-dimensional analysis in orthognathic patient. Two-dimensional cephalograms can be synthesized from CBCT digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) data. In this study, conventional cephalograms and CBCT were taken simultaneously, and representative landmarks were located and analyzed in its accuracy and reproducibility. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ten patients who had orthognathic surgery in Wonkwang University Daejeon Dental Hospital participated in this study. For each patient, CBCT and conventional cephalogram was taken. By using Ondemand (Cybermad, Korea), 2-dimensional cephalograms was established on CBCT. In addition, 19 landmarks were designated and measured by 3 orthodontists twice a week. After these landmarks were transferred to a coordinate, distance of landmark and axis, standard error, distribution degree were measured, compared and analyzed. RESULTS: Comparing the CT ceph group and conventional cephalogram group, CT ceph group had shown shorter distance of landmark and axis in S, Hinge axis, Bpt, Ba, Or, Corpus left. Standard error of the mean shows that CT ceph group has better reproducibility in Or, Corpus left, Hinge axis at X axis and Na, U1R, U1T, Bpt, PNS, Ba Corpus left, Hinge axis at Y axis. In both groups, mean error was less than 1.00 mm, no significant difference were found between CT ceph group and conventional cephalogram group in all measurements. Furthermore, comparing two groups, each 17 landmarks out of 19 had its characteristic in distribution degree. CONCLUSION: No significant difference were found between CBCT composed cephalographic radiograph and conventional cephalograghic radiograph, clinical application may be possible if improved.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of minilaparotomy total hysterectomy compared with other methods of hysterectomy ever used. METHODS: Data of 300 women who had been done hysterectomy due to benign gynecologic disease were used for this thesis. Minilaparotomy hysterectomy was done for 40 women, classical transabdominal hysterectomy for 186 women, laparoscopic assisted vaginal total hysterectomy for 28 women and vaginal total hysterectomy for 46 women. Women's clinical data and clinical outcome were compared using Excel and SPSS. RESULTS: Minilaparotomy hysterectomy has no limitation in choosing patient and adnexal surgery like classical transabdominal hysterectomy, and postoperative clinical course is so rapid similar with laparosocopic assisted vaginal total hysterectomy. CONCLUSION: Minilaparotomy hysterecomy is good choice for treatment of benign gynecologic disease.

OBJECTIVE: The purposes of this study were to introduce a superficial temporal artery (STA)-sparing mini-pterional approach for the treatment of cerebral aneurysms and review the surgical results of this approach. METHODS: Between June 2010 and December 2015, we performed the STA-sparing mini-pterional approach for 117 patients with 141 unruptured intracranial aneurysms. We analyzed demographic, radiologic, and clinical variables including age, sex, craniotomy size, aneurysm location, height of STA bifurcation, and postoperative complications. RESULTS: The mean age of patients was 58.4 years. The height of STA bifurcation from the superior border of the zygomatic arch was 20.5 mm±10.0 (standard deviation [SD]). The craniotomy size was 1051.6 mm²±206.5 (SD). Aneurysm neck clipping was possible in all cases. Intradural anterior clinoidectomy was performed in four cases. Contralateral approaches to aneurysms were adopted for four cases. Surgery-related complications occurred in two cases. Permanent morbidity occurred in one case. CONCLUSION: Our STA-sparing mini-pterional approach for surgical treatment of cerebral aneurysms is easy to learn and has the advantages of small incision, STA sparing, and a relatively wide surgical field. It may be a good alternative to the conventional pterional approach for treating cerebral aneurysms.
