The present study reports 41 cases of congenital and acquired heart diseases, who received open heart surgery under extracorporeal circulation [ECC] by Sarns Heart-Lung-Machine [HLM] at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Hanyang University Hospital during the` period between July 1975 and February 1979. The priming of pump oxygenator was carried out by the hemodilution method using Hartman`s solution, whole blood, and fresh human plasma. The rate of hemodilution was in the average of 50.8 ml/kg. ECC was performed at the average perfusion flow rate of 85.0 ml/kg/min [2.43 L./ kg/2] and at moderate hypothermia. In the total cardiopulmonary bypass, arterial pressure ranged between 55 mmHg and 90 mmHg, but generally maintaining over 70 mmHg. Patient age ranged between 2 and 54 year old, in congenital heart diseases, between 2 and 28, in acquired heart diseases, between 17 and 54 Sex ratio of male to female was 20:21. The cases include a case of pulmonary valvular stenosis, 4 cases of atrial septal defect, 9 cases of ventricular septal defect, 9 cases of tetralogy of Fallot, 5 cases of pentalogy of Fallot, 3 cases of atypical multiple anomalies 7 cases of mitral stenosis or insufficiency, a case of myxoma in left atrium, and a case of ruptured aneurysm of Valsalva`s sinus. The surgical managements were 16 valvulotomy for pulmonary valvular stenosis, 2 Teflon patch graft closure and 5 simple suture closure of atrial septal defect, 16 Teflon patch graft closure and 5 simple suture closure of ventricular septal defect, 12 pericardial patch graft for infundibular stenosis of right ventricle, one anastomosis between left superior vena cava and right atrium, 2 open mitral commissurotomy, 5 mitral valve replacement using Starr-Edward`s ball valve, porcine xenograft by Hancock, by Carpentier-Edward, or Angell-Shiley, one removal of left atrial myxoma, and a repair of ruptured aneurysm of Valsalva`s sinus. Four [9.7%] out 41 cases expired postoperatively and the rest of 37 cases survived with satisfactory results. The causes of death were one coronary embolism in tetralogy of Fallot, 2 postoperative lower cardiac output in atypical multiple anomalies, and one right heart failure in large: ventricular septal defect with pulmonary hypertension.

신경섬유종은 드문 전신 질환으로 여러 장기를 침범하며 특히 다양한 크기의 혈관을 침범하여 혈관병을 발생시켜 대동맥 협착, 모야모야병, 신동맥 협착 등을 일으킨다. 이로 인하여 약 0.4-6.4%의 환자에서 고혈압 증상이 있으며 이의 원인으로 신혈관 협착이 가장 흔하다. 특히 약물에도 조절되지 않는 고혈압은 혈관 협착 등이 원인이 될 수 있기 때문에 도플러 초음파 검사나 전산화 혈관 조영술 등의 정밀 검사가 필요하다. 이에 대한 치료는 약물 치료, 피부경유 혈관경유혈관성형술, 수술적 치료 등의 병합 요법으로 이루어지며 재협착 발생률이 높기 때문에 주의 깊은 추적 관찰이 필요하다. 본 저자들은 제 1형 신경섬유종증에 합병된 모야모야병에서 신장동맥 협착을 동반한 고혈압을 진단받고 치료한 1례를 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

Pulmonary perfusion scan with radioactive $^{113m}In$-iron hydroxide particle was performed in the 25 cases of heart disease which had been diagnosed by cardiac catheterization prior to surgery from July, 1972 to July, 1973 at the Department of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, Yonsei Medical College. It consists of 7 mitral stenosis, 2 mitral insufficiency, 1 aortic insufficiency, 3 atrial septal defect, 5 ventricular septal defect, 2 patent ductus arteriosus, 1 transposition of great vessel and 4 Tetralogy of Fallot. Findings of pulmonary perfusion scan in relation to hemodynamic data of cardiac catheterization were examined. 1) Out of 10 cases of acquired valvular heart disease, In 6 cases of mitral stenosis and 1 case of aortic insufficiency, radioactivity was increased at both upper lung. This finding is noted when pulmonary wedge or venous pressure was elevated above 22 mmHg and arterial systolic pressure above 33 mmHg. 2) Out of 15 cases of congenital heart disease. In almost all cases of atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect except 2 cases, radioactivity was even at both entire lung. In 2 cases of patent ductus arteriosus, radioactivity was decreased especially at the left lung. It is observed that in acyanotic congenital heart disease, radioactivity of lung is not related with pulmonary arterial pressure. In 3 cases of Tetralogy of Fallot, radioactivity was even at both entire lung and in 2 of them, extrapulmonary radioactivity of liver or kidney which depends on size of defect and volume of right to left shunt reversible, was noted.

Background :To assess the accuracy of Electron-Beam Tomography(EBT) in following evaluation of the pulmonary vascular system after a shunt operation in the cyanotic con-genital heart disease with pulmonary stenosis or pulmonary atresia. Material and Method : Sixteen patients(M:F=11:5) who received Blalock-Taussig(n=8) bidirectional cavo-pulmonary shunt(n=10) and unifocalization (n=2) were ncluded in the study. We evaluated the patency of the shunt the morphology of intrapericardial and hilar pulmonary arteries(PA) peripheral pulmonary vascularity by background lung attenuation and the abundance of arterial & venous collateral. Angiography(n=12) and echocardiography(n=20) were used as the gold standard for the comparison of EBT results. Result: EBT was consistent with angiogram/ echo in 100% of the evaluation for the patency of the shunt and in 12(by angiogram 100%) and 19(by echo 95%) for the detection the hypoplasia stenosis or interruption of central PA In measuring of PA EBT and angiogram corrlated(r=0.91) better than EBT-echo(r=0.88) or echo-angiogram(r=0.72) Abundant systemic arterial collateral were noted in 4 and venous collateral in 3 cases. In evaluating the peripheral pulmonary vascularity the homogenous and normal-ranged lung attenuation(m=6) decreased but homo-genous attenuation(n=1) segment-by-sgment heterogeneous attenuation(n=3) homogenous but asymmetrical attenuation(n=3) segment-by-segment heterogeneous attenuation(n=3) homogenous but asymmetrical attenuation(n=3) and venous congestion(n=2) were observed nd 12 of them were compatible with the blood flow pattern revealed by cardiac catheterization. Conclusion: EBT was accurate in the integrated evaluation of the pulmonary vascular system after the shunt including the patency of the shunt operaion the morphology and dimension of the central and hilar PAs and the loco-regional pulmonary flow in the lung parenchyma. It suggests the useful information about the need of secondary shunt operation the proper timing time for total repair and the need of interventional procedure prior to total repair.

Background: As the internal mammary artery is far superior to the vein in the patency rate recently there has been a tendency to use the arterial graft as much as possible in coronary artery bypass grafts with the expectation of better the short- and long-term patency rate. Material and Method: We sequentially grafted the diagonal and the left anterior descending artery significantly influencing the cardiac function with the internal mammary artery. There were 32 cases of sequential grafts from July 1993 to December 1998: 21 men and 11 women. The age range was from 43 to 69 years with a mean age of 56.64$\pm$6.41 years. There were 22 unstable angina 7 stable angina and 3 acute myocardial infarction. 8 cases of them were accompanied by stenosis of the left main coronary artery. The grafts for coronary artery bypass surgery included the great saphenous vein at 60 the right gastroepiploci artery at 5 and the left internal mammary artery at 64 coronary arteries. Result: One patient died from sepsis and multiorgan failure. Complications included wound infections in two cases and gastrointestinal bleeding in one patient. All patients showed decrease or disappearance of angina after operation. The postoperative coronary angiogram performed in 9 patients showed neither occlusion nor stenosis of the grafts. Conclusion: This study suggests that sequential anastomosis of the internal mammary artery to the diagonal and the left anterior descending artery may result in excellent short-term patency diagonal and the left anterior descending artery may result in excellent short-term patency rate and be useful for the coronary artery bypass graft using only arterial grafts

배경: 관상동맥우회술에서 사용된 동맥 도관은 정맥 도관보다 우수한 장기 개존율을 보이며, 그에 따른 향상된 단기 및 장기 임상성적이 보고되어 있다. 또한, 심폐체외순환기를 사용하지 않고 시행하는 관상동맥우회술(Off pump coronary artery bypass grafting; Off pump CABG) 역시 기존의 심폐체외순환기를 사용하는 관상동맥우회술에 비해 좋은 수술성적이 보고되고 있다. 따라서 동맥 도관만을 이용한 Off pump CABG를 시행하면 보다 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 생각하여, 저자들은 동맥 도관만을 이용하여 Off pump CABG을 시행한 환자들의 임상 결과를 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2001년 1월부터 2004년 10월까지 Off pump CABG을 시행 받았던 630명의 환자 중 동맥 도관만을 사용하였던 325명을 대상으로 하였다. 대상 환자들의 수술 전 위험요인, 관상동맥질환의 정도 및 수술성적에 대해 조사하였다. 환자들의 평균 연령은 $59.3\pm11.9\;(36\~83)$세였고, 평균 좌심실박출계수는 $55.4\pm14.0\%\;(15\~86\%)$였다. 대상 환자의 $81.9\%$에서 삼혈관 질환, 또는 좌주관상동맥 질환을 보였다. 동맥을 사용하는 적응증은 좌전하행지는 협착이 $50\%$ 이상, 회선동맥 분지는 $80\%$ 이상, 우관상동맥은 $90\%$ 이상인 경우로 하였다. 수술 후 $7\~10$일에 총 194명의 환자에서 multi-slice 컴퓨터 단층촬영을 시행하여 동맥 이식편의 개존율을 조사하였다. 결과: 이용된 동맥 도관은 좌내흉동맥 322예($99.1\%$), 요골동맥 297예($91.4\%$), 우내흉동맥 157예($48.3\%$), 그리고 우위대망동맥 12예($3.7\%$)였다. 환자당 평균 $2.46\pm0.56$개의 동맥을 획득하여, 좌전하행지 329곳, 대각지 123곳, 변연둔각지 285곳, 그리고 우관상동맥 191곳 등 총 928곳에 문합하여, 환자당 평균 $2.86\pm0.78$개의 문합률을 보였다. 수술 후 사망은 1예($0.3\%$)였다. 수술 후 뇌경색은 없었으며 주요 합병증으로는 종격동염 6예($1.8\%$), 신부전증 4예($1.2\%$), 심근경색이 3예($0.9\%$), 그리고 출혈로 인한 재수술이 3예($0.9\%$) 있었다. 총 혈관 개존율은 $99.3\%$ (581/585)였고, 좌내흉동맥, 요골동맥, 우내흉동맥 및 우위대망동맥의 개존율은 각각 $100\%$(207/207), $99.2\%$(238/240), $98.5\%$(133/135) 및 $100\%$ (313)였다. 각각 두 개의 요골동맥과 우내흉동맥에서 부분협착이나 경쟁혈류가 관찰되었다. 결론: 동맥 도관만을 이용한 Off pump CABG를 시행하여 감염의 위험성을 증가시키지 않으면서 영구적인 신경학적 합병증을 일으키지 않았고 좋은 혈관 개존율을 보여주었다. 따라서 동맥 도관을 이용한 Off pump CABG는 관상동맥의 협착의 정도에 따라 효율적으로 시행 시 좋은 임상결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

During the period from November 1981 through June 1986, 18 cases of coronary arterial bypass graft were performed at Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital. They consisted of 13 males and 5 females with the mean age of 49 [range: 28-69 years]. History of myocardial infarction was noted in 50% of the patients and cardiomegaly on chest PA in 2 patients with preserved LV function. On resting EKG, except the evidences of old myocardial infarction, the findings of LVH were noted in 7 cases, acute myocardial infarction in 2, diffuse myocardial ischemia in 1, and significant ventricular arrhythmia in 2 cases. The angina by type of presentation is stable in 3 patients, unstable in 15 patients with resting, postinfarction and progressive angina as the criteria of unstability. The patterns of involvement of significant disease were single vessel involvement [5 cases] double vessel involvement [8 cases], and triple vessel involvement [5 cases] including 5 cases of left main coronary arterial diseases. The pattern of coronary arterial disease in individual patient was one or more stenosis of the proximal left coronary arterial system with or without right coronary involvement, in every case. We performed 9 cases of double bypass and 9 cases of triple bypass with great saphenous vein using single anastomosis technique except in 4 cases, One of the 4 cases is our first case, sequential anastomosis between LAD and diagonal was performed due to shortage of the prepared vein graft. In the other 3 cases, our latest experience, we adopted the left internal mammary artery for the left anterior descending coronary revascularization. The distribution of sites of distal anastomosis revealed more striking predilection to LAD, showing our attention on the significance of the revascularization of LAD system. The ischemic time was 35 minutes per graft and mean number of grafts per patient was 2.5. Of the 18 patients, 13 [77.2%] had complete revascularization, and incomplete in 5 cases with the causes of incompleteness as presented. The early results of operation were as followed: surgical death in 2 [11%], perioperative infarction 2 [11%], need of inotropic support 5 [28%], arrhythmia 2 [11%], wound problem, bleeding, and emotional dysfunction. The actuarial anginal free survival during the period of 6 months through 2 years was 85.2% with excellent symptomatic control according to the angina classification of Canadian Cardiovascular Society.

We have performed left lung transplantation followed by ligation of right pulmonary artery in 14 dogs at the Chest Disease Research Institute, Yonsei University College of Medicine from May 1992 to February 1994. Excised left lung was perfused with 1500cc of 4$^{\circ}$C cold Euro-Collin`s[E-C] solution at a pressure of 30cmH2O through main pulmonary artery and preserved in 4$^{\circ}$C cold E-C solution for one hour. Left lung transplantation were proceeded in order of left atrium, left main bronchus, left pulmonary artery and right pulmonary artery ligation as usual method. The femoral artery and pulmonary artery pressures were monitored for more than 5 hours after the transplantations in 14 dogs. Six recipient dogs had elevated mean pulmonary artery pressure to greater than 30mmHg after the left lung transplantation and ligation of right pulmonary artery. The cause of elevated mean pulmonary artery pressure was due to inadequate preservation resulting in ischemic damage to donor lungs in 3 cases, and inadequate surgical techniques in 3 cases. Two recipient dogs without surgical complications died immediate post-operatively due to hemorrhagic shock. The bleeding focuses were LA anastomotic site in one case and femoral artery puncture site in another case. The remaining 6 recipient dogs showed mean pulmonary arterial pressure less than 30mmHg. However, one dog had spontaneous pneumothorax in post-operative 4 days, and another dog had rejection phenomenon in post-operative 5 days which was confirmed by pathologic findings of extracted transplanted lung. One dog succumbed of severe hemoptysis which was due to lung abscess with pin point stenosis of bronchial anastomosis in post-operative 38 days. In conclusion, elevated mean pulmonary arterial pressure greater than 30mmHg in immediate postoperative period can be due to inadequate preservation of extracted lung or poor surgical techniques. And the two dogs succumbed of hemorrhagic shock even though the mean pulmonary arterial pressure was less than 30mmHg. It is thought that careful preservation of the extracted donor lung in 4oC E-C solution and complete surgical techniques are the most important factors early and late complications.

폐동맥하 심실중격결손을 동반한 양대혈관 우심실기시증에서 동맥전환술은 심실내 교정의 제한된 적응증과 동맥전환술의 우수한 임상성적으로 인해 최근 이 기형의 선택적 치료법으로 자리잡고 있다. 이 기형에 대한 동맥전환술의 단기 및 중기 성적을 검토하였다. 대상 및 방법 1994년 8월부터 2002년 7월까지 8년 동안 동아대학교 병원에서 심실중격결손증 교정과 동맥전환술을 시행한 폐동맥하 심실중격결손을 동반한 양대혈관 우심실기시증 환자 13명을 대상으로 후향적 조사를 하였다. 양대혈관 우심실기시의 진단은 50% rule을 적용하였다. 중심나이와 평균체증은 각각 27일(범위, 3-120일)과 3.8$\pm$0.7kg (범위, 2.92-5.3kg)이었다. 대동맥궁기형은 6명(46.2%)에서 동반되었고 모두 일차 완전교정(one-stage repair)으로 교정되었다. 양대혈관의 위치관계는 좌우로 위치한 것이 8예(61.5%), 전후로 위치한 것이 5예(38.5%)였다. 관상동맥의 형태는 1LCx-2R과 좌관상동맥이 폐동맥의 뒤로 돌아가는 형태가 각각 6예씩(46.2%)이었으며 1명(7.7%)에서 벽속 좌관상동맥기형이 관찰되었다. 심실중격결손의 확장 및 패치를 이용한 우심실유출로 성형술이 각각 1명(7.7%)에서 시행되었다 좌우 대혈관 위치관계를 갖고 있는 3명(23.1%)을 제외한 모든 환자에서 Lecompte 술식을 시행하였다. 결과: 3예(23.1%)의 수술사망이 발생하였다. 3예 모두 대동맥궁기형을 갖고 있었던 경우였다. 수술 생존자의 평균추적기간 41.3$\pm$30.7개월(범위 1.7-79.1개월) 동안 만기사망은 1예(10%)로 술 후 5개월 뒤 중추신경계 합병증으로 사망하였다. 1예(10.0%)에서 압력차 30mmHg 이상의 폐동맥판 협착이 발견되었고 2예에서 좌폐동맥 협착으로 풍선확장술이 필요하였으며 이 중 1예(10%)에서 술 후 52개월만에 재수술이 필요하였다. 무증상의 중등도 대동맥판 폐쇄부전증이 1예(10%)에서 발견되었다. 수술사망을 포함한 5년 생존율은 68.3%였다. 결론: 대동맥궁기형을 동반한 폐동맥하 심실중격결손의 양대혈관 우심실기시증 환자에서는 높은 수술사망률을 보였으나 동반하지 않은 경우는 낮은 수술사망률과 재수술률을 보여 동맥전환술이 이 심기형에서 유용한 수술방법으로 고려될 수 있을 것이라고 생각한다.
