Abstract

Duplex sonography is used widely in various medical fields because of its repeatability and low cost. In particular, the carotid duplex sonography is a useful non-invasive test for diagnosing cerebrovascular disease and predicting the prognosis. In clinical practice, it is very important to reduce the test time and improve accuracy. The patient's clinical information must be known in advance to perform carotid duplex sonography quickly and accurately. Despite this, there are often difficulties finding new cervical vascular diseases that are not mentioned in the clinical information. Therefore, knowing a variety of cases can lead to fast and accurate results. In this context, this paper reports three cases of cervical vascular disease discovered unexpectedly during carotid duplex sonography: CASE 1, internal carotid artery occlusion and cerebral arteries branched from the external carotid artery; CASE 2, internal jugular vein thrombosis; CASE 3, microembolism observed in the vertebral artery.

이중초음파는 반복적으로 검사를 실시할 수 있고, 비교적 저렴하기 때문에 다양한 진료분야에서 널리 이용되고 있다. 그중, 목동맥이중초음파는 뇌혈관질환을 진단하고 예후를 예측하는데 매우 유용한 비침습적 검사이다. 임상에서 목동맥이중초음파의 소요시간을 줄이고 결과의 정확성을 높이는 것은 매우 중요한 작업이다. 일반적으로 환자의 정보를 미리 숙지하는 것만으로도 신속히 정확한 검사를 수행할 수 있다. 하지만 예상과 달리 새롭게 발견되는 목 혈관질환으로 인해 검사하는데 종종 어려움을 겪기도 한다. 따라서 목 부위에서 발생할 수 있는 다양한 증례들을 숙지하는 것은 신속히 정확한 검사결과를 산출하는데 큰 도움이 될 것이다. 이러한 맥락에서, 본 연구는 목동맥이중초음파를 시행하던 중 예기치 않게 발견된 목 혈관질환 증례 3가지를 소개하고자 한다. 증례1. 속목동맥 폐색과 바깥목동맥으로부터 분지된 대뇌혈관; 증례 2. 속목정맥에서 관찰된 혈전; 증례 3. 척추동맥에서 관찰된 미세색전.
