Moyamoya disease is an unusual vascular disorder highlighted by progressive bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion and collateralization of intracranial blood flow. The purposes of the bypass procedures : 1) reduce or arrest of the chance of repeated ischemic attack by making the additional collateral blood flow, 2) decrease the chance of repeated bleeding by reducing the number of moyamoya vessels. During the period from June 1989 through February 1991, 8 moyamoya diseases associated with intraventricular hemorrhage were operated by STA-MCA anastomosis plus EMS. Results are as follows : 1) Slightly female dominancy in incidence(5 : 3), and all of the patients were middle aged(range 32 to 55 years). 2) All of the patients had sudden onset of headache, and most patients whad neck stiffness and vomiting. 3) In all of the patients, confirmatory diagnosis could be done by angiography, and all of the patients had gypical angiographic findings of moyamoya disease. 4) All of the patients had IVH in brain CT scan. 5) All of the patients were surgically treated : STA-MCA anastomosis plus EMS. 6) The postoperative revascularization rate was 89%(8 sides in 9 sides). 7) The postoperative results were excellent in 5, good in 1, and death in 2. The rarity of such lesions in KOrea and their surgical results are reviewed briefly.

Endometriosis in the abdominal wall following Cesarean section is one of the very rare condition among the extrapelvic endometriosis. Although benign, endometriosis possesses the unique ability to invade tissue and to disseminate or metastasize by hematogeneous, lymphatic route, or direct implantation. We reported the case with brief review of the literature.

5.An Anesthetic Experience for Automatic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator Implantation: A case report.
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology 1997;32(6):1017-1022
Automatic implantable cardioverter defibrillator(AICD) is a device that senses ventricular tarchycardia and ventricular fibrillation and responses with counter-shocks to the heart. We experienced a case of AICD implantation to prevent sudden cardiac death. A-22-year-old male was operated under O2, N2o, fentanyl, low dose enflurane anesthesia. The diagnosis was familial long QT syndrome. Lead was introduced to the right ventricular apex through left subclavian vein and generator was placed between pectoralis muscles. Then defibrillation threshold testing was performed. Ventricular fibrillation was induced with Twave shock of 3 joule and defibrillation with 5 joule terminated ventricular fibrillation successfully. After ventricular fibrillation, his blood pressure decreased to 30mmHg. When ventricular fibrillation was converted to normal rhythm, it retured to normal range. After operation, patient was transferred to the ICU and stayed there for 3 days.

6.Sternum-Splitting Approach for Anterior Space-Taking Lesions in the Upper Thoracic Lesion.

Recently we performed a modified sternum-splitting approach in surgery for anterior space-taking lesion in the upper thoracic region. In contrast to the original trans-sternal approach introduced by Cauchoix, we cut only the manubrium and split it using vertebral spreader. After reaching the anterior surface of the cervico-Thoracic vertebrae, the central portion of the vertebral body was removed with air-drill under an operating microscope. The longitudinal bone defect of the vertebral bodies was filled with a bone graft obtained from the iliac bone. Removal of the space-taking lesions in the cervico-thoracic junction and upper thoracic region can be performed safely by utilizing the modified sternum-splitting approach. This approach can be applied also to endarterectomies at the origins of the vertebral arteries and the subclavian artery.

OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to determine the clinical value of human papilloma virus deoxyribonucleic acid testing with the hybrid capture test, specifically to examine whether human papillomavirus testing could identify which women with Papanicolaou smears read as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance were most likely to have histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. STUDY DESIGN: Hybrid capture testing for high-risk human paillomavirus types(type 31, 33, 35, 45, 51, 52, 56), repeat Papanicolaou smears and colposcopically directed biopsies were performed concurrently on 55 women refered to chosun university hospital with a previous Papanicolaou smear read as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance. RESULTS: Human papillomavirus eoxyribonucleic acid positivity was associated with a six fold increased likelihood of histologic confirmation of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia. The sensitivity of hybrid capture for any cervical intraepithelial neoplasia was 92% (12/13) and specificity was 86%(36/42), whereas the corresponding values for the repeat Papanicilaou smear was 85%(11/13) and 38%(16/42), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Testing for human papillomavirus deoxyribonucleic acid with hybrid capture appears to offer an effective means by which patients whose cervical Papanicolaou smears have been read as atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance could be triaged for colposcopy. In particular, high sensitivity and specificity for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia could be maintained.

A 11-year-old, female Russian Blue cat was presented with anorexia, vomiting, and diarrhea lasting for 3 days. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a hypoechoic, non-circumferential, and eccentrically formed intestinal loop with altered wall layering and thickening of the tunica muscularis. After surgical resection, histopathologic examination confirmed an infiltrative, round-cell neoplasm composed of sheets and cords of neoplastic mast cells within a fibrotic, edematous stroma. The cat was alive and healthy 6 months after surgery. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an intestinal mast cell tumor in a Russian Blue cat in South Korea.

Collagenous gastroduodenitis is a rare gastrointestinal disease diagnosed histologically by subepithelial collagen deposition in the lamina propria. Its clinical presentation is diverse. The authors encountered a 17-year-old female patient who complained of epigastric pain. Endoscopy revealed several deep ulcers in the gastric body. The gastric mucosa around the ulcer showed diffuse fine nodularity in the shape of cobblestones with open-type atrophy. The duodenal mucosa showed nodular lesions similar to those of the gastric mucosa. The gastric ulcer healed completely with proton pump inhibitor treatment. The patient was followed up, showing no remarkable mucosal change of stomach or duodenum for several years. Collagenous gastroduodenitis was diagnosed by repeated histologic examinations. This paper reports a rare case of chronic collagen gastritis with deep gastric ulcer and its long-term clinical progress.
