  • 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.

  • 심장질환과 혈관질환을 포함하는 심뇌혈관질환은 한국인 사망원인 1위이다. 대표적인 질환으로서의 뇌경색과 심근경색은 혈관이 막힌 후 6시간 이내에 뚫어주지 않으면 사망 또는 돌이킬 수 없는 상태에 이른다. 가족 중 이러한 환자가 있으면 환자가 사망할 때까지 수년간 환자 본인은 물론 가족 전체의 삶의 질이 크게 저하되며, 국내 심뇌혈관질환의 사회 경제적 비용은 5조 4천억원에 이른다. 따라서, 이와 같은 질환은 조기에 검출하는 것이 중요하다. 최근 경동맥 헐관벽 두께가 이러한 질환의 가능성과 상관성이 높다는 사실이 밝혀지면서 미국심장협회에서는 무증상이더라도 45세 이상이면 주기적으로 이 지표를 측정할 것을 권장함에 따라 이 분야의 연구가 전세계적으로 확산되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 경동맥의 내막과 중막 두께가 이러한 질환의 위험인자와 어떠한 상관성을 갖는지 밝힘으로써 궁극적으로는 삶의 질을 향상시키고자 한다.

  • Radial artery aneurysm is an extremely rare disease and this is usually caused by iatrogenic trauma such as arterial cannulation. Most traumatic aneurysms in the extremities are false aneurysms and most cases have occurred at the level of the wrist. Very few true aneurysms of the radial artery have been reported, with most of them being iatrogenic. A right handed 38-year-old female had a true aneurysm of the distal radial artery in the thenar groove of the palm. The patient had a history of excessive handclapping and the injury was suggestive of repetitive occupational injury due to scissoring. She underwent surgical treatment for the aneurysm of the radial artery in the thenar groove of the palm of her hand.

  • A 62-year-old male was admitted to our hospital complaining of coldness in both legs and discolorization in the right toes. On angiogram, obstruction of right external iliac artery and left common iliac artery was shown. The patient underwent extended extraanatomic arterial reconstruction due to poor general conditions. From right subclavian artery to right popliteal artery, artery bypass was done with 8 mm PTFE and 6 mm PTFE Suprapubic crossover bypass was done with another 8 mm PTFE from 8 mm PTFE in right inguinal area that was anastomosed with right subclavian artery and left common femoral artery The patient was discharged from hospital and OPD follow up was done. Right leg pain and discolorization of entire toes disappeared and were normalized. We report a case of extended extraanatomic arterial reconstruction: subclavian artery-popliteo-crossover-femoral-PEFE-bypass.
