Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Breast －A Case Report－: Jun Mo Kim, Mi Soo Hwang, Su Hwan Kang, Soo Jung Lee, Young Kyung Bae; Yeungnam Univ J Med. 2007;24(2 Suppl):S749-754. Published online December 31, 2007; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12701/yujm.2007.24.2S.S749

Abstract PDF: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignant neoplasm of the breast accounting for approximately 0.1% of all breast carcinomas with a total 200 cases reported in the literature. In contrast to the aggressive nature of ACC in other organs, ACC of the breast is known to have an excellent prognosis. Recently we experienced the first case of ACC of the breast at Yeungnam University hospital. The case was diagnosed by preoperative fine needle aspiration cytology. We report a case of ACC of the breast managed with breast conserving surgery and review the literature.

Effect of adenoidectomy on dentofacial skeleton in naso-respiratory dysfunction children.: Hee Kyoung Lee, Jang Soo Seo; Yeungnam Univ J Med. 1991;8(1):32-41. Published online June 30, 1991; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12701/yujm.1991.8.1.32

Abstract PDF: This study was made to investigate the effect of adenoidectomy on dentofacial skeleton in naso-respiratory dysfunction children. The clinical material compromised the 24 children in a previous study who had naso-respiratory dysfunction and 24 children who were the nasal breathing with normal occlusion. The cephalograms were taken at the initial examination and 1 year later for the control group and experimental group the paired sample statistical analysis was performed. The results were as follows. 1. In cranial base variable, difference between two groups were not statistically significant. 2. In craniofacial variables, experimental group showed brachyfacial pattern but control groups didn't show significant growth pattern. 3. In maxillary variables, experimental group showed flattening the plane. 4. In mandibular variables, experimental group showed the decrease of mandibular plane angle and gonial angle. 5. In facial height variables, experimental group showed horizontal growth rotation.
