The $^{14}C$-warfarin used as rodenticids was identified from various organs of sprague dawley with scintillation counter. And the cytochrome p-450 which was induced by coumarin derivatives was identified with electrophoresis. The distributions of $^{14}C$-warfarin after $14.8{\mu}Ci/kg$ oral application at each organ was as follows; urine-7.5%, blood-0.44%, feces-0.9%, liver-0.66%, lung-0.86%, kidney-0.8%, heart-0.43% and spreen-0.33% after 24hrs. The cytochrome p-450 was purified by Octyl Sepharose CL-4B hydrophobic chromatography and isozymes were 50.8 Kd in control group, 53.3 Kd and 55.2 Kd in coumarin pretreated group and 50.8 Kd, 54.6 Kd and 57.7 Kd in warfarin pretreated group.

Fifty cases of Open Heart Surgery due to congenital and acquired heart disease were done using the cardiopulmonary bypass in the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular surgery, Chosun University Hospital from November, 1980 to June, 1985. 1. The age of the congenital heart disease was from 7 to 29 years, the mean age was 14.5 years. In the acquired heart disease, the age was from 14 to 48 years, and the mean age was 22.3 years. The ratio of male to female was about 1.8:1. 2. The number of congenital cyanotic heart disease were 7 patients, congenital acyanotic heart disease were 17 patients and acquired valvular heart disease were 26 patients. All of the acquired heart disease was one or more valve disease. 3. Preoperative symptoms of the congenital heart disease were exertional dyspnea [cyanotic 100%, acyanotic 70.6%] and palpitation [cyanotic 28.6%, acyanotic 76.1%], and the acquired heart diseases were exertional dyspnea [92.3%], palpitation [34.1 %], and chest discomfort [30.8%]. 4. The method of the myocardial protection during the cardiopulmonary bypass were mild or moderate hypothermia, intermittent coronary perfusion of the cardioplegic solution, topical myocardial hypothermia with 4oC Hartmann`s solution. 5. In the cases of the valve replacement, postoperative oral anticoagulant therapy was started at oral intake of food using the warfarin and persantin, and the prothrombin time was maintained 30-50% of control value during 3-6 months for tissue valve replacement and permanently for metal valve replacement. 6. The postoperative complications were appeared in 24 cases and the complications were wound infection, occipital alopecia, hemorrhage etc. 7. The mortality after open heart surgery was 8 percents and the cause of death was low cardiac output syndrome, right heart failure, DIC, and Left ventricle rupture.

Multlvalvular heart surgery was performed In 78 cases, in the Department of Thoracic & Cardiovascu far Surgery of Chonbuk national University Hospital from november 1983 to March 1994. There Where 31 men and 47 women. whose ranged from 14 to 63 years. The causes of the valvular lesions were 57 rheumatic origin, 18 degenerative, 1 previous endocarditls, 1 prosthetic valve mal-function. There were 25 double valve replacement with or wit out tricuspid valve repair, i M VR and aortic valve repair, 18 MVR and tricuspid valve repair, 1 MVR and aortic and tricuspid valve repair, 10 AVR and mi- tral valve repair, 1 AVR and tricuspid valve repair, 8 mitral aortic valve repair, 13 mitral and tricuspid valve repair. They were improved mean New York Heart Association functional cldss, from 2.72% 121 Early deaths were 5 cases(6.4%). The cause of death wet'e low cArdiac output syndrome. veritricular tachycardia, massive bleeding and cerebral thromboembolism. All the survivors belonged to New York Heart Association functional class I or ll at discharge. The patients who had had valve replacement operation were medicated with warfarin to maintain the level of 30∼ 50% of normal prothrombin time. During follow-up(93.6%, mean 49.9 months), 2 late deaths were developed. One was due to intracranial hemorrhage and the other congestive heart failure. The pre-operative New York Heart Association Functional class IV was statistically sig ificant operat- ive risk factors(p< 0.05).
