Abstract

The occurrence of subclavian steal syndrome is possible in patients with either severe stenosis or occlusion in the left proximal subclavian or brachiocephalic arteries. Limited and insufficient blood flow in the vessel with a lesion induces blood supply from the opposite side via any of the connected vessels, which is called a subclavian steal phenomenon. The duplex sonography is useful for detecting this phenomenon. Some patients who experience this phenomenon complain of vertebrobasilar insufficiency, such as headache or numbness and weakness in the arm, and so on. Subclavian steal syndrome means subclavian steal phenomenon accompanied by these symptoms. We present a patient with focal severe stenosis of the brachiocephalic artery, manifested as blood flow reversal in the vertebral, and a "to-and-fro" waveform pattern in the external carotid, internal carotid, and common carotid arteries.

빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군은 좌측 몸쪽부분 빗장밑동맥 혹은 팔머리동맥에 심한 혈관 협착이나 폐색이 원인이 되어 발생한다. 병변이 있는 부위에서는 제한적이며, 불충분한 혈류가 발생하여 반대쪽으로부터 연결혈관을 통해 일부 혈액이 유입될 수 있다. 이러한 현상을 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상이라고 한다. 이중초음파검사는 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상을 측정하는데 유용한다. 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상을 보이는 일부 환자에서는 척추뇌바닥혈류부전 혹은 허혈성 말초동맥질환 증상을 호소한다. 빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군은 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상과 더불어 신경학적 증상이 반드시 동반될 경우로 정의할 수 있다. 저자는 팔머리동맥의 심한 협착을 보이는 환자에서 척추동맥과 더불어 바깥목동맥과 전방순환계를 담당하는 온목동맥 및 속목동맥에서 이중초음파검사를 이용한 혈류빼앗김현상이 관찰된 증례를 보고하고자 한다.
