원발성 심장종양은 드문 것으로 알려져 있으며, 더구나 부정맥을 동반하는 경우는 매우 드문 것으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 발작성 심방성 빈맥을 동반한 심장지방종 환자를 치험하여 보고하는 바이다.

It is well known that multipoint and computerized intraoperative mapping systems improve the results of surgery for Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and show tremendous potential for opening an entirely new era of surgical intervention for the more common and lethal types of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias such as atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation. In addition, the ability to map and ablate the sometimes fleeting automatic atrial tachycardia is greatly enhanced by computerized mapping systems. In this study, we have developed 16 channel computerized data analysis system using microcomputer for basic research of electrophysiology and electrical propagation. This system is expected to enable us to study pathophysiology of cardiac arrhythmia and to improve the results of diagnosis and surgical treatment for cardiac arrhythmia.

Background: Recently, a hybrid surgical-electrophysiological (EP) approach for confirming ablation lines in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) was suggested. The aim of this approach was to overcome the limitations of current surgery- and catheter-based techniques to yield better outcomes. Methods: Ten consecutive patients with AF underwent total thoracoscopic ablation (TTA) following transvenous catheter EP ablation (residual gap and cavotricuspid isthmus [CTI] ablation). Holter monitoring was performed 6 months postoperatively. Results: Ten patients (90% with persistent AF) underwent successful hybrid procedures, and there was no in-hospital mortality. An EP study was performed in 8 patients and showed that successful antral ablation in all pulmonary veins was achieved in 7 of them. The median follow-up duration was 7.63 months (range, 6.7 to 11.6 months). Nine patients underwent Holter monitoring 6 months postoperatively, and the results indicated an underlying sinus rhythm without AF, atrial flutter, or atrial tachycardia lasting more than 30 seconds in all of the patients. There was no recurrence of AF during follow-up. Conclusion: A hybrid approach that consists of TTA followed by transvenous catheter EP ablation (residual gap and CTI ablation) yielded excellent outcomes in our patient population. A hybrid approach should be considered in patients with a high risk of AF recurrence.

Arrhythmias in the neonatal period are not uncommon, and may occur in neonates with a normal heart or in those with structural heart disease. Neonatal arrhythmias are classified as either benign or nonbenign. Benign arrhythmias include sinus arrhythmia, premature atrial contraction, premature ventricular contraction, and junctional rhythm; these arrhythmias have no clinical significance and do not need therapy. Supraventricular tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia, atrioventricular conduction abnormalities, and genetic arrhythmia such as congenital long-QT syndrome are classified as nonbenign arrhythmias. Although most neonatal arrhythmias are asymptomatic and rarely life-threatening, the prognosis depends on the early recognition and proper management of the condition in some serious cases. Precise diagnosis with risk stratification of patients with nonbenign neonatal arrhythmia is needed to reduce morbidity and mortality. In this article, I review the current understanding of the common clinical presentation, etiology, natural history, and management of neonatal arrhythmias in the absence of an underlying congenital heart disease.

This is case report of total anomalous pulmonary venous return with atrial septal defect which were corrected surgically by intracardiac procedure under total cardiopulmonary bypass.Two patients were supracardiac type,cardiac and mixed type was each one.The mixed type was three years old female patient.She was diagnosed as atrial septal defect with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return[right pulmonary vein drains into superior vena cava and right atrium] and corrected as usual.After operation,she underwent exertional dyspnea and frequent tachycardia.Chest x-ray film showed pulmonary congestion.Follow up cardiac cineangiogram revealed that left pulmonary vein also anomalously drained into left innominate vein through vertical vein.Through left thoracotomy,anastomosis was successfully carried between left atrium and vertical vein without cardiopulmonary bypass and there was no sign of pulmonary artery obstruction for two years follow up.The other three patient were corrected successfully without complication and got good result.

It is well known that multipoint and computerized intraoperative mapping systems improve the results of surgery for Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and show tremendous potential for opening an entirely new era of surgical intervention for the more common and lethal types of supraventricular tachyarrhythmias such as atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation. In addition, the ability to map and ablate the sometimes fleeting automatic atrial tachycardia is greatly enhanced by computerized mapping systems. In this study, we have developed 64 channel computerized data analysis system using microcomputer (Macintosh ${II}_{x}$) for basic research of electrophysiology and electrical propagation. The bipolar electrogram information is acquired from 64 cardiac sites simultaneously at a sampling rate of 1 ksampls/sec with continuous and total data storage of up to 30 seconds. When the reference electrogram is selected and reference point is picked up, delay time from the reference point is displayed on two dimensional diagram of the heart. System design permits easy expansion to almost 256 simultaneous sites. this system is expected to enable us to study pathophysiology of cardiac arrhythmia and to improve the result of diagnosis and surgical treatment for cardiac arrhythmia.

저자들은 심장수술 후 발생한 심정지로 심폐소생술을 시행한 신생아에서 성공적인 체외막산소화 장치(ECMO)사용 1례를 경험하였다. 환자는 울혈성 심부전과 폐동맥 고혈압을 가졌던 4.4kg의 35일된 남아로 술중에 특별한 문제없이 심실중격결손증을 첨포봉합법으로 봉합하였다. 심장 중환자실에서의 술후 경과는 junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET)가 나타나기 전까지 약 5시간 동안은 특별한 문제가 없었다. junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET)가 나타난 후 50분경과한 뒤 갑작스러운 서맥이 나타나면서 수축기 혈압이 50mmHg로 하강하여 곧 흉골절개 봉합부(sternotomy incision)를 열고 심폐소생술을 바로 시행하였으며 심폐소생술을 시행한 지 4시간 후에 상행대동맥에 동맥관을 그리고 정맥관은 우심방이에 삽관하여 체외막산소화 장치를 시작하였다. 환자의 혈액동력학은 체외막산소화 동안 안정적이었으며, 시작 후 38.5시간 만에 중지하였다. 흉골지연봉합을 시도하였고, 환자는 수술 후 7일째 인공호흡기를 제거했으며, 신경학적 합병증없이 수술 후 21일째 퇴원하였다.
