In 1989, We experienced 2 cases of T.A.P.V.D. corrected successfully under cardiopulmonary bypass. The first case was 27 years old male with mild dyspnea on exertion and easy fatigability. All clinical symptoms, physical examinations, laboratory findings, echocardiogram, cardiac catheterization and angiogram revealed supracardiac type T.A.P.V.D. drained through left innominate vein. Operation was done by manner of modified Schumacker procedure. The other case was 6 years old male with cardiac type drained to right atrium through coronary sinus. Two patients were well in postoperative 15 and 8 months.

Interventional cardiology is a branch of the medical specialty of cardiology that deals specifically with the catheter based treatment of structural heart diseases. A large number of procedures can be performed on the heart by catheterization. Although many cardiac diseases requiring open heart surgery are currently treated with cardiac interventions in human medicine, interventional cardiology is relatively recently introduced in veterinary medicine. Therefore, in this lecture, several interventional methods for various diseases of small animals, more focusing on interventional methods in heart diseases will be discussed.

Tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonic valve is a rare cardiac malformation. The most significant symptoms during early infancy are secondary to bronchial compression resulting from the dilated pulmonary arteries. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by echocardiography, cardiac catheterization and cardioangiography. A case of TOF with absent pulmonic valve was successful operated upon without insertion of the pulmonic valve. The narrow pulmonic valve annulus was enlarged with a transannular pericardial patch graft. The postoperative course was uneventful.

In this investigation we undertook to evaluate the utility of radionuclide cardiac angiography in the detection of cardiac shunts before and after surgical correction. Time-activity curves of ventricles and lungs were evaluated after bolus intravenous injection of 99mTc-human serum albumin in 512 preoperative patients and 551 post-operative patients. Omitting 31 cases of technical failure due to poor bolus, we detected shunts in 459 cases of 481 preoperative evaluations, so the detectability was 95.4%. The cases which couldn`t be detected by this method had small amount of shunt. Also the degree of shunt detected by radioisotope methods were well correlated with oxymetry method. [r=0.89, p<0.01 ] In postoperative evaluations, 18 out of 411 patients with left to right shunt and 10 out of 140 right to left shunt were found to have remnant shunts with radionuclide cardiac angiography. Of the 28 cases with failed operation, 2 were confirmed in reoperation, 2 by cardiac catheterization, 2 by two -dimensional echocardiography. All except one .f these patients had membranous ventricular septal defects and those with left to right shunts had moderate to severe pulmonary hypertension and shunt amount. Also those had larger septal defects than control group. We consider that radionuclide cardiac angiography is a simple and noninvasive method which can show the preoperative diagnosis and postoperative follow up of cardiac shunts.

We experienced a case of congenital tricuspid stenosis. The patient was 5 years old boy. The 2D-echo 4 cardiac catheterization with cineangiogram revealed as Tricuspid Stenosis, associated with functioning patent foramen ovale & mild R.V hypoplasia. The lesion was successfully corrected by TV commissurotomy & closure of PFO. Postoperatively, moderate degree of tricuspid regurgitation was remained.

A persistent left superior vena cava draining into the left atrium associated with atresia of the coronary sinus-ostium, ASD, and PDA is a rare congenital anomaly. The patient was a 4 year-old female whose complaints were frequent URI and exertional dyspnea. The congenital heart anomaly was suspected at 2 months of her age. Chest films showed cardiomegaly [C-T ratio, 75%]. EKG, Echocardiography, cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography were performed. Open heart surgery was done under impression of LV-RA shunt, bilateral superior vena cavae, and ASD. At the time of operation, huge LA and RA, inferior vena caval defect of a secundum type ASD [1.5 x 3cm in diameter], absence of innominate vein, atresia of the coronary sinus-ostium, and persistent LSVC draining into LA were noted. Direct suture closure of ASD and ligation of LSVC were done. The patient`s postoperative course was somewhat eventful: systolic murmur at apex remained. Four months after the operation, congestive heart failure attacked a few times. PDA that was overlooked at the time of open heart surgery was detected through postoperative cardiac catheterization in.4 months later. Emergent operation for closure of PDA was performed on the day of recatheterization. After that, patient`s heart failure was easily controlled without any notable problem.

Evaluation of heart function is of importance in assessing the results of valvular heart surgery. Information on volume and functional change of heart chamber can be obtained by cardiac catheterization and echocardiography. We studied 41 patients with mitral stenosis[MS] and 23 patients with mitral regurgitation[MR] using M-mode echocardiography before and after mitral valve replacement[MVR] at Pusan Paik Hospital. Preoperative cardiac catheterization was available in 56 cases, and the results were obtained as follows. 1. In patients with MS, preoperative average LV end-diastolic dimension[EDD] and end-systolic dimension[ESD] were remained within normal range, but postoperative EDD and ESD were significantly decreased[P<0.01]. The preoperative and postoperative LV ejection fraction[EF] were remained within the normal range and no significant change[P>0.05]. The preoperative left atrial dimension[LAD] was enlarged considerably above normal[P<0.01], but was significantly decreased after surgery[P<0.001]. The preoperative LV posterior wall thickness[PWTh] was within normal range, and no significant change after surgery[P>0.05]. 2. In patients with MR, preoperative average end-diastolic dimension[EDD] and end-systolic dimension[ESD] were significantly greater than normal[P<005], but postoperative EDD and ESD were significantly decreased[P<0.01]. The preoperative LV ejection fraction[EF] and fractional shortening[FS] were within normal range, and no significant change after surgery[P>0.05].The preoperative left atrial dimension[LAD] was enlarged considerably above normal [P<0.01], but was significantly decreased after surgery[P<0.001].The preoperative LV posterior wall thickness[PWTh] was within normal range, and no significant change after surgery[P>0.05].

심장수술시 중심 정맥 상관은 필수적으로 시행해야 하는 수기 중 하나이다. 보통은 내경 정 맥이나 쇄골 하정맥에 경피적 상관을 하는데 기흉이나 혈흉 등의 합병증을 유발할 수 있고,영유아의 경우는 반복된 상관실패로 많은 시간을 허비할 수 있다. 그래서 저자들은 몸무게 10kg이하의 영유아 개심술시 홍골절개가 완료된 상태에서 무명정맥을 노출하여 여기에 삽관을 한다. 술후 중환자실에서 이 무명정맥관은 주로 좌심방이나 폐동맥의 압력을 측정하는데 이용하고 관자가 혈역학적으로 안정되면 우심방이나 상대정맥으로 후퇴시켜 수액보급이나 약물투척 경로로 이용한다. 본원에서는 1989년 이후로 96예에서 시행하여 왔으며 이 삽관술로 인한 기흉이라 혈흉은 없었고 정맥관제거시 출혈에 의한 합병증도 경험하지 않았다.
