Based on our experience with 23 frontotemporal reconstructions performed, this paper attempts to provide guidelines for appropriate selection among the four most commonly employed materials (e.g., autogenous parietal bone, silicone rubber, methylmethacrylate, and porous polyethylene) so that optimal results can be achieved. Clinical follow-up ranged from 6 to 91 months (mean 32 months). Every patient was analyzed clinically by ordinary scale method. The mean defect size was 134.8 cm2 in the silicone rubber, 36.5 cm2 in the methylmethacrylate, 17.4 cm2 in the autogenous bone graft and 7.3 cm2 in the porous polyethylene. The clinical assessment was excellent (mean, 29.3 points) in silicone rubber, excellent (mean, 28.6 points) in autogenous bone, excellent (mean, 26.8 points) in methylmethacrylate, and good (mean, 24.8 points) in polyethylene. To sum up, a large bony defect of congenital calvarial anomaly produced an excellent result using custom-made silicone implant. A relatively small bony defect with a scarred bed produced an excellent result using autogenous parietal bone grafting. Unexpected and medium-sized defect was reconstructed successfully through a simple procedure using methylmethacrylate. Porous Polyethylene was used at an incidental small defect because of its expensiveness.

Trichinellosis is a parasitic zoonosis of public health importance. It is caused by Trichinella spiralis which has a wide host range including humans. In the present communication, the ELISA technique was employed on a total of 803 blood samples from 7 selected pig breeding farms in 1996 for diagnosis and surveillance of trichinellosis. Out of the entire 803 samples, nine were found to be suspected while one was positive by ELISA. But western blot analyses employed for further confirmation have shown that all of 10 samples did not react to larval excretory-secretory product antigens. These results indicate that pig breeding farms included in the present study are free from trichinellosis. However, it does not mean Korea is free from trichinellosis since human trichinellosis has recently been reported. The necessity of continued surveillance for trichinellosis in both pigs and wild animals was discussed.
