초록

무명동맥은 길이가 짧고 흉곽에 의해 잘 보호되기 때문에 흉부둔상에 의한 무명동맥의 손상은 매우 드물다. 본 증례는 흉부둔상을 수상한 37세의 남자에서 발생한 무명동맥 파열로 흉부W와 대동맥 조영술로 진단되었다. 정중흉골절개를 통한 응급 수술을 시행한 바 무명동맥의 근위부에 길이와 폭이 각각 3 cm의 가성동맥류를 형성하고 있었고 혈관 내피의 완전파열을 관찰할 수 있었다 무명동맥의 근위부를 대동맥궁 쪽에서 폐쇄시키고 손상된 부위를 절제한 후 10 m Gore-tex를 이용하여 대동맥-무명동맥 우회술을 실시하였다. 수술후 환자는 20일째에 신경학적 합병증없이 퇴원하였고 양측상지의 혈압도 동일하게 측정되었다.

Rupture of an innominate artery caused by blunt chest trauma is extremel rare because this artery is short and relatively well protected by the bony cage. This report describes a 37-year-old male who sustained a blunt chest injury that resulted in an innominate artery rupture, detected by chest CT and thoracic aortography. The patient underwent an urgent operation through median sternotomy. A 3 by 3 m sized pseudoaneurysm of proximal innominate artery was found with a complete intimal tear. After the origin of the innominate artery was closed, the injured segment of artery was excised and an aorto-innominate artery bypass with a 10 mm Gore-tex graft was performed without use of a shunt. The patient was discharged 20 days later without neurologic complications and had equal blood pressure in both arms.
