1.Cervical Prevertebral Hematoma - a Rare Complication of Acupuncture Therapy: A Case Report.
Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery 2009;16(4):290-293
A 36-year old man with neck pain developed an acute cervical prevertebral hematoma after acupuncture therapy at an oriental medicine hospital. MR imaging demonstrated a fluid collection, and this suggested a diagnosis of retropharyngeal hematoma, and the patient was managed conservatively. We report here on a case of a retropharyngeal hematoma following acupuncture therapy and we review the relevant literature.

A 24-year-old man with tuberculosis meningitis developed acute paraplegia and sensory disturbances 5 weeks after receiving conventional antituberculous therapy. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intradural extramedullary long segmental mass mimicking en plaque meningioma at the T2-T6 vertebrae levels. Prompt surgical decompression was performed. A histology examination of the mass revealed a tuberculoma. After surgery, the patient showed improved motor power and a normal bladder function. Intradural extramedullary tuberculoma of the spinal cord is rare complication of tuberculosis meningitis, which can occur as a response to conventional antituberculous therapy.

6.Congenital Hypoplasia of the Posterior Arch of the Atlas Associated with a Fracture of the Odontoid Process: A Case Report.
Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery 2012;19(2):64-67
STUDY DESIGN: Case report. OBJECTIVES: To report a rare posterior arch hypoplasia of the atlas and review the clinical significance. SUMMARY OF LITERATURE REVIEW: Congenital hypoplasia of posterior arch of the atlas is uncommon. In particular, the combined fracture of the odontoid process has not been reported. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 56-year-old man developed severe neck pain after a traffic accident. Cervical CT scan revealed a fracture of the odontoid process and hypoplasia of posterior arch of the atlas. RESULTS: Bony union was achieved after halo vest immobilization for three months. CONCLUSIONS: Hypoplasia of posterior arch of the atlas is determined incidentally in asymptomatic patients. However, the patients should be evaluated in detail with a 3D CT and MRI to avoid a misinterpretation as fracture, instability or misdiagnosis.

Congenital hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is a rare genodermatosis. It is characterized by hypohidrosis hypotrichosis, dental hypoplasia and characterstic facial features, which reflect a wide constellation of developmental defec of tissue from the ectoderm. We have encountered three cases of congenital hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in a 28-year-old female, her new-born baby, and a 10-month-old boy with a family history. All of the three patients had hypohidrosis, hypotrichosis, defective dentition, and characterstic facial features, which were characterstic features of this disorder. In addition, they showed dry skin, sparse and thin hairs. Histopathologic findings of previous cases revealed no eccrine gland structure in the dermis with routine and immunohistochemical stainning such cytokeratin and filaggrin. We report three typical cases of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with the review of literature.

9.Congenital Absence of Unilateral Lumbar Articular Process: A Case Report.
Asian Spine Journal 2008;2(2):106-108
A congenital absence of a lumbar articular process is a rare condition with an uncertain etiology. However, an intervertebral instability caused by this anomaly can cause occasional lower back pain. A 20 years old man presented with lower back pain. The physical examination revealed no neurological deficits. Plain radiographs of the lumbar spine revealed an absence of the left inferior articular process at the fourth lumbar vertebra associated with hypoplasia of the left lamina. The patient's symptoms were resolved after conservative treatment. We report a case of a congenital absence of articular process at the fourth lumbar vertebra.
