OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to find out mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid mutations in preeclampsia because Mendelian models fail to explain all the patterns of inheritance in preeclampsia. METHODS: Ten preeclampsia patients and two of their related family members who have the obstetric history of preeclampsia were studied. The mitochondrial transfer ribonucleic acidleu[UUR] gene was amplified using polymerase chain reaction, cut by a restriction endonuclease (Apa , and also sequenced to see the whole gene. RESULTS: There were neither the known mutation at Nucleotide 3243 nor other mutations on the mitochondrial transfer ribonucleic acidleu[UUR] gene in these objects. CONCLUSION: It seems that the known mutation of mitochondrial transfer ribonucleic acidleu[UUR] gene is not so frequently detected in preeclampsia of South Korean, But it could not be concluded how many South Korean women with preeclampsia have the mutation.

The maxillary alveolar ridge separates the palate from the lip and clefts of the primary palate have a cleft of the alveolus as well. In the most common clefts of the primary palate, the alveolar portion of the cleft is located between the lateral incisor, if present, and the canine. The cleft may also pass between the central incisor and the lateral incisor, rarer forms of clefts may pass between the central incisor or more distally on the maxillary arch. There are still considerable differences of opinion as to the optimal time for closure of alveolar defects, with or without concomitant bone grafting. But the preferred time for the operation with bone graft is between age 9 and 11 before the canine teeth have fully erupted. As an alternative to primary bone grafting, Skoog developed the periosteoplasty, or "boneless bone graft" technique, in which periosteal continuity was established between maxillary segments by the transfer of local periosteal flaps from the anterior maxillary wall. this procedure, which takes advantage of the propensity of periosteum to form bone in young children, leads to the formation of new bone within the alveolar cleft in spite of the fact that no bone graft is used.This study attempts to defin the effectiveness of early alveolar cleft repair with gingivo-vestibular-mucoperiosteal flap.The results in 6 unilateral alveolar clefts and 1 bilateral alveolar cleft, which is corrected early by gingivo-vestibular-mucoperiosteal flap, have been satisfactory alveolar arch continuity and alveolar bone formation with tooth eruption.
