To elucidate a potential contribution of endotheline-1[ET-1] to the genesis of pulmonary hypertension and postoperative pulmonary hypertensive crisis in the patients with heart disease, we measured plasma levels of the ET-1 during perioperative period of open heart surgery. In addition, we examined changes of ET-1 during perioperative period and correlations between ET-1 levels and hemodynamic variables. 12 patients including 5 acquired heart disease and 7 congenital heart disease patients were selected randomly as a study group, Group A and B, respectively. 6 patients proved not having heart or hemodynamic problem were selected as a control, Group C. 110 blood samples from pulmonary artery[ET-P] and radial artery[ET-S] were taken and assayed by Sep-pak extraction and RIA. ET-1 levels of Group A were ET-P, 3.94$\pm$5.31pg /ml, ET-S, 3.10$\pm$2.90pg/ml[p>0.05], Group B were ET-P, 1.63$\pm$0.62pg/ml, ET-S, 1.99$\pm$2.45pg/ml[p>0.05], Group C were ET-P, 1.97$\pm$2.02pg/ml, ET-S, 1.72$\pm$0.77pg/ml[p>0.05]. There were no statistically significant differences of ET-1 levels among the Group A, B, C[p>0.05]. There was no correlation between pulmonary artery pressure[PAP] and ET-1 level[p>0.05], and ET-1 levels were not increased even in the cases of pulmonary hypertensive criwis or low cardiac output syndrome, whereas significant correlation between ET-S and pulmonary vascular res-istance[Rp] [r=0.36, p<0.05], and negative correlation between ET-S and OS saturation of pulmonary artery[OS-P][r= -0.49, p<0.01] were identified. Another significant finding was peak increase of ET-1 levels in the postoperative period 1 hour[p<0.05] and then gra-dualy decrease through the postoperative period. In conclusion, ET-1 has no correlation with PAP, whereas correlation with Rp, and inverse correlation with OS-P. It is suggested that ET-1 is neither the direct causative substance of pulmonary hypertension nor pulmonary vasospasm but there must be increased production of ET-1 in chronic pulmonary hypertensive state. Counter-regulatory mechanism to ET-1 is speculated during the pulmonary vasospasm.

목적: 위암 수술 후 회복을 위한 입원기간은 지금까지 대개 1주일 이상이었다. 이러한 회복기간을 요구하는 가장 큰 이유는 수술 후 3~4일간의 금식기간의 필요성과 합병증 발생 여부에 대한 관찰 때문이다. 본 연구진은 이번 연구를 통하여 수술 후 환자를 빠른 시일 내에 일상으로 복귀시키기 위한 임상진료 지침서를 만들고 이를 환자들에게 적용하여, 그 유용성과 안정성을 평가 하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2007년 10월부터 2008년 6월까지 성모병원에서 연속적으로 수술을 받은 103명의 환자를 수술 후 조기회복을 위한 임상진료 지침서의 적용대상으로 하였다. 임상진료 지침서에는 수술 전 최소한의 시술, 수술 후 적절한 통증관리 및 수액공급, 수술 후 조기 보행과 조기경구영양공급 등을 포함하고 있다. 진료지침 제외 기준을 수술 전, 수술 중 그리고 수술 후에 따라 마련하였다. 결과: 103명의 환자들 중 모두 19명의 환자가 각각 수술 전 5명, 수술 중 7명 그리고 수술 직후 7명의 제외 기준에 따라 제외되었다. 제외되지 않은 84명(81.6%)에 대하여 진료지침 시행 초기엔 수술 8일 후 퇴원을 계획하였으며, 최근엔 6일 후 퇴원을 계획하고 있다. 이들 중 22명(26.2%)의 환자에서 수술 후 합병증이 발생하였으며, 위장관 관련 합병증은 6명, 감염 관련 합병증은 8명에서 발생하였다. 환자들의 임상적, 수술적 특징에 따라서 합병증 발생률의 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 결론: 위암 수술 후 조기회복을 위한 임상진료 지침서는 제외 기준을 적용 후 대상 환자를 선정하고 활용한 결과, 환자들에게 유용하고 안전하게 사용되었다.

Alterations in serum enzymes were studied in twenty-five patients who underwent open heart surgery in N.M.C. during the period from June 1979, to Feb. 1980. There were fifteen congenital and ten acquired heart diseases. In all patients, Rygg-Kyvsgaard five head roller pump and Polystan bubble oxygenator were used and serial determination of total level of Creatine phosphokinase [CPK], Lactic dehydrogenase [LDH], Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT] were made preoperatively, operation day [just after aortic clamp release, 2 hrs later, 4 hrs later, 6 hrs later], and postoperative days up to 5th day. Immediate postoperative clinical courses were also evaluated. Twenty-five patients were divided into two groups: Group A[13] was cardiopulmonary bypass time more than 95 minutes and aortic clamp time more than 45 minutes. Group B[12] was cardiopulmonary bypass time less than 95 minutes and aortic clamp time less than 45 minutes. The peak levels of SGOT, LDH in Group A were more significantly elevated than Group B [P<0.05]. But peak levels of CPK were not significant between two groups. In the view of clinical evaluation, poor clinical courses were more frequent in Group A [54%] than Group B[8%].

Many varieties of space-occupying lesions can occur in the mediastinum. During the twenty-three-year period 1966-1988, we had experienced the 151 cases of primary mediastinal tumors and cysts at the Thoracic k Cardiovascular Dept., CUMC. The most common histologic types were thymomas and germ cell tumors, followed by neurogenic tumors and lymphomas. Most non-neoplastic lesions were granulomatous lesions and cysts. The mediastinal tumors were often asymptomatic, the malignant tumors in 35.4%, the benign tumors and cysts in 72.8% of the cases. The most common symptom was pain, which occurred in one-fourth of the patients. The most useful diagnostic method was X-ray examination of the chest. However, a final diagnosis could usually be made only at operation. Nine malignant tumors[30.0%] were excised radically, 17[56.7%] palliatively and 4[13.3%] were only biopsied. Almost all benign tumors except tuberculous lymphadenitis were radically excised. Fourteen patients received postoperative radiation therapy and 17 received chemotherapy. The postoperative complications were developed in 15[11.7%] and hospital mortality was 0.8%.

A double aorto-coronary bypass procedure performed in 2 cases, one with a Prinzmetal`s variant angina and the other with an unstable angina, is presented. The patient with a Prinzmetal`s angina who had a high-grade obstruction of the left anterior descending and the right coronary system showed a marked postoperative improvement with complete disappearance of anginal pain. The other patient with unstable angina had obstruction of the left anterior descending as well as a marginal branch of the left circumflex artery. Following bypass of these vessels, the patient did well during the immediate postoperative period. However, he developed hypotension in the recovery room and died 6 hours postoperatively, in spite of an intensive effort at resuscitation. The most likely cause of death in this patient is a myocardial infarction.

We experienced eleven cases of pulmonary aspergllosis treated surgically in the period from 1981 to 1992. There were 5 men and 6 women, ranging in age from 28 to 64 years [mean age 40.4 years]. The most common chief complaint of the patients was hemoptysis and blood tinged sputum[7 cases, 63.6%], On preoperativechest film, the case of cavity with fungus ball[7 cases] and only cavity[4 cases] were seen. The location of the lesion were both upper lobe[6 cases] and lower lobe[5 cases]. The underlying disease were tuberculosis[5 cases], bronchiectasis[2 cases], tuberculosis and bronchiectasis[1 case], pneumonia[1 case] and none[2 cases]. The operative procedures of pulmonary aspergillosis were lobectomy[8 cases], cavernostomy[1 case] and thoracoplasty[2 cases]. The postoperative complications were postoperative massive bleeding[reoperation, 2 cases], wound infection[2 cases] and no operative mortality.

Unstable angina pectoris is often premonitory to an acute myocardial infarction. Surgical revascularization in this syndrome is of great potential benefit and relatively low mortality. A patient with unstable angina pectoris is reported. A 65-year-old man complained of dyspnea and pain in the left anterior chest. The pain was brought on by mild exercise, occurred at rest and sleeping time. The pain worsened over a month period and more aggravated in intensity and duration. Physical examination showed no abnormalities except hypertension and laboratory data were within normal limits. His anginal pain was not relived by nitroglycerin ingestion. Preoperative coronary angiograms revealed significant obstruction [>90%] of left anterior descending coronary artery. Aorto-left anterior descending coronary bypass with autogenous saphenous vein used as conduit was performed. The postoperative course was uneventful and he was discharged on 16th postoperative day in a healthy condition.

The extended transseptal approach to the mitral valve replacement has been used for 30 patients. There were 19 women and 11 men. Twenty five patients had rheumatic heart disease, 4 had degenerative valve ,and 1 had valve prolapse. Fifteen of 30 patients had other associated procedure; 10 had aortic valve replacement; 5 had tricuspid annuloplasty. There were no postoperative complications associated with the approaches, ie, no bleeding, no sinus node dysfuction, and no atrioventricular conduction disturbance. Despite division of the sinus node artery, preoperative atrial rhythms[3 sinus rhythms and 27 atrial fibrillations were not changed during postoperative period. The extended transseptal approach provides good mitral valve exposure without inherent complications, and is superior to that of standard approach, so we use it routinely for mitral valve procedure.
