Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is rare congenital lung disease, in which systemic artery supplies a congenitally cystic portion of the lung. Patient was 19 years old male whose complaints were fever, chest pain and sputum. Chest film showed a round homogenous density and air-fluid level at the left lower lung field and on bronchogram, contrast materials did not enter the abscess pocket. By operation multiple lung abscess pockets at the lower lobe were noted. An aberrant artery, measuring 0.4cm. in diameter and 2 cm. in length, arised from the aorta just above the diaphragm and entered the pusterior basal segment of left lower lobe. After division of the artery, left lower lobectomy was done ana postoperative hospital course was uneventful. Pathologic findings were multiple lung cysts which were not connected to the left lower lobe bronchi and an aberrant artery which showed elastic lamillation and mild sclerotic change.

Multistage unifocalization and complete repair have been performed for pulmonary atresia ventricular septal defect and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries. We reported a case that divided major aortopulmonary collateral artery was changed into an aneurysm that compressed the left main bronchus. A 1-year-8-month old boy was operated. The Rastelli operation with left pulmonary artery reconstructuion ligation of patent ductus arteriosus and take-down of right Blalock-Taussing shunt was performed on the patient who had pulmonary atreisia ventricular septal defect patent ductus arteriosus and MAPCA at 1 year and 8 months of his age. He previously underwent the unifocalization and right B-T shunt at 9 months of age,. He repeatedly had difficulty in weaning from the mechanical ventilator, After removing the aneurysm from the divided MAPCA that compressed the left main bronchus externally it was possible to wean him from the mechanical ventilator.

Penetrating chest trauma by stab injury may result in massive hemothorax from damage to single or multiple intrathoracic organs such as heart, aorta, internal mammary artery, intercostal artery or pulmonary parenchyme. Prognosis of massive hemothorax necessitating emergency thoracotomy is fatal especially so if there exists concomitant underlying compromise of cardiopulmonary function. A 56 year old man with destroyed left lung due to old pulmonary tuberculosis was stabbed in right parasternal lesion through third intercostal space. Intubation with cardiopulmonary resuscitation and closed thoracostomy were performed to resuscitate from cardiac asystole from hemorrhagic shock and acute respiratory distress. Midsternotomy was made to expose active bleeding foci in right mammary artery, subclavian vein, intercostal artery and anterior segment of right upper lung showing severe bullous change and pleural adhesion. Postoperative care included ventilator support, inotropic instillation and cautious, balance fluid therapy ; successful extubation was done on third postoperative day and patient was discharged on tenth postoperative day without any complication.

The pulmonary sequestration is rare congenital pulmonary disease with nonfunctioning lung tissue supplied by aberrant arteries arising from systemic arteries-thoracic aorta, subclavian artery, innominate artery, internal mammary artery, etc. In our country, only 23 cases were reported previously and the majority was intralobar pulmonary sequestration except 2 cases. The patient was 17 year-old man and admitted due to intermittent cough, productive sputum and fever for 8 years. On simple chest P \ulcornerA view, multiple cysts with air-fluid levels were located at left lower lobe area. Aortogram revealed two aberrant arteries arising from thoracic aorta just above the diaphragm. On the operative field, the arteries were 0.7 and 0.3 cm in diameter. Left lower lobectomy was done with ligation of aberrant arteries. The patient was recovered and discharged uneventfully.

A 43-year-old woman was diagnosed with an intravenous leiomyomatosis at a previous hospital and transferred to our hospital to undergo surgical treatment. Emergency one-stage operation for coincidental removal of intra-abdominal, right atrial, and intravenous masses were planned. Upon arriving at the operating room, she suffered a sudden onset of severe dyspnea and showed hemodynamic instability. Intraoperative TEE showed pulmonary embolization of a right atrial mass. Removal of the pulmonary artery mass and the intra-abdominal mass, and the cardiopulmonary bypass were performed without any complications.

Truncus Arteriosus is uncommon, accounting for 0.4%-2.8% of all congenital cardiac malformations. Truncus arteriosus has a poor prognosis in early infancy and defined as "a single arterial trunk that leaves the heart by way of a single arterial valve and that gives rise to the coronary, systemic and one or both pulmonary arteries directly." Through antemortem study of patients with truncus arteriosus the development of surgical techniques for palliation and correction was established. Recently we had surgical experience of truncus arteriosus - Collett '||'&'||' Edwards type 2. The main pulmonary artery was originated from truncus at right posterolateral aspect. Truncal valve was tricuspid with good coaptation. Ventricular septal defect was subarterial type of 2.0 cm in diameter. After detachment of the main pulmonary artery from truncus, truncus was repaired directly. Ventricular septal defect was closed with Dacron patch. Extracardiac valved conduit [Carpentier-Edwards: 16mm] was employed for making continuity between right ventricular outflow tract and pulmonary artery. Postoperatively, incomplete right bundle branch block on electrocardiogram was continued. Patient was died due to respiratory failure in postoperative 40 days.s.

Patients with anomalous connection of the left coronary artery to the pulmonary artery are at risk for myocardial infarction, and early or sudden death. Between 1986 to 1992, a total of 4 of these patients underwent surgical intervention with various operative techniques at our institution. Age at operation ranged from 2 months to 43 years. Three infant patients had congestive heart failure, 2 of them had mitral regurgitaion, and 1 had ST-T change on elctrocardiogram. Operative techniques included direct coronary artery transfer to the aorta[n=2], intrapulmonary tunnel from the aortopulmonary window[n=1], coronary artery bypass using saphenous vein[n=1]. One deaths occured at 2 weeks after direct coronary arterial transfer due to respiratory failure caused by Respiratory Syncitial virus pneumonia. Supravalvar pulmoanry stenosis occured after intrapulmoanry tunnel. We recommend direct aortic implatation of the anomalous coronary artery at the time of diagnosis. Intrapulmonary tunnel from aortopulmonary window or subclavian-coronary anastomosis could be alternatives in whom aortic implantation is not feasible anatomically.

Pulmonary sequestration Is an unusual congenital malformation characterized by the presence of nonfunctioning lung tissue which usually has no communication with the normal bronchial tree and which receives its blood supply from an anomalous systemic artery instead of a pulmonary arterial branch. Two forms of pulmonary sequestration occur: Intralobar sequestration, in which the abnormal pulmonary tissue is incorporated within the normal lung and shares a common covering of visceral pleura, and extralobar sequestration, in which the abnormal pulmonary tissue is separated from the normal lung and has its own pleural investment. Since 1970, five cases of pulmonary sequestration were operated at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, College of Medicine, Seoul National University. 1. Among five cues, one was male and the others were female. 2. All were intralobar type and involved left lower lobe. 3. There was no operative mortality following left lower lobectomy and ligation of the aberrant artery.
