매스컴을 통해 유명인의 갑작스러운 죽음에 대한 소식을 접하곤 한다. 교통사고, 자살 등 여러 원인 가운데 급성 심근경색이 원인이 되는 경우도 있다. 최근 인기그룹 2PM의 준수 아버지가 심근경색으로 사망했고 몇해 전 그룹 거북이의 리더 터틀맨 임성훈 씨도 급성 심근경색으로 사망해 팬들을 안타깝게 했다. 급성 심근경색은 현대인 급사의 가장 많은 질환의 하나이다.

이 연구의 목적은 심근경색의 발생 위치와 그 부피에 따른 심실의 여러 가지 생리학적인 특성들을 분석하는 데에 있다. 우리는 심근경색의 발생 사례를 총 8가지로 분류하여 각 병변의 발생 위치와 부피를 달리 하였으며 대조군으로 정상 상태의 심장을 두어 기준 값으로부터 각 사례 별로 전체 심장 대비 심근경색 부위가 차지하는 비율, 압력-부피 선도, 1회 박출량(SV), 분당 심박출량(CO), ATP 소모율, 박출 효율(EF), 1주기의 1ATP 당 소모한 일의 양(SW/ATP) 등을 조사하였다. 또한 본 연구는 심근경색의 발생 위치와 부피에 따른 이의 심각성을 나타내고자 했기 때문에, 각 사례 별로 압력-부피 선도, 들의 변화율 및 세포가 괴사한 정도에 따른 수치 변화율을 퍼센트(%)로 표시하여 그 정도를 조사하였다. 심근경색을 가진 심장은 그렇지 않은 심장에 비해서, ATP 소모량이나 EF의 경우 각 사례 마다 상이한 결과를 가지기는 하지만, 대체적으로 더 적은 1주기 일량(SW) 및 1회 박출량(SV) 분포를 보였으며 SW/ATP의 값은 거의 일괄적으로 감소하였음을 확인하였는데, 이는 심실의 효율이 정상 심장에 비해서 떨어졌음을 의미한다. 결과적으로, 본 연구는 심근경색의 생리학적 특징들을 재확인함과 동시에 임상적으로 확인할 수 없는 특징들의 수학적인 분석과 더불어 심근경색의 공간 특징적인 현상들을 밝히고 있다.

A 62-year-old woman with ischemic heart disease, hypertension and hypercholesterolemia had developed spinal cord infarction after off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB). The incidence of postoperative neurological complications is well known to be less in OPCAB than that of conventional coronary bypass surgery. Furthermore, spinal cord infarction is an uncommon clinical event after coronary bypass surgery Here we report a case of spinal cord infarction following OPCAB, discuss possible mechanism of spinal cord infarction with relate literatures.

To assess the early results, risk factors and optimal timing for coronary artery bypass graft surgery(CABG) after an acute myocardial infarction(AMI), we reviewed our 19 patients who underwent CABG within 30 days after AMI, between June 1994 and October 1996. This study excluded 1 patient whose diagnosis was AMI with ventricular septal rupture. 14 of the patients were male and 5 were female. Their ages ranged from 41 to 77 years(mean age, 60.6$\pm$ 10.4 years), and the amount of time between AMI and CABG ranged from 8 hours to 24 days(mean time, 10.6$\pm$6.4 days). There were 11 anteroseptal infarctions and 8 inferior wall infarctions. 11 patients had trsnsmural infarctions and 8 had subendocardial infarctions. Indications of operations were p imary revascularization and postinfarction angina. Three patients required preoperative intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP) support, and 4 additional patients required IABP to be separated from cardiopulmonary bypass. An average of 3.6 $\pm$ 0.6 vessels per patient were bypassed. The early mortality rate for these 19 patients was 5.3% and late mortality rate was 5.5%, 1-year and 2-year actuarial survival rates were 89.5% Univariate analysis of mortality showed that an ejection fraction less than 30% and intraopretative IABP supports were associated with risk factors(p value=0.018 and 0.015 respectively). Age, sex, time to CABG, emergency operations, types and locations of infarctions were not significant. Although our studies have weak p.oints in that there was only a small number of patients and the lack of long-term results, we could conclude that early myocardial revascularization is relatively safe after AMI for those individuals with an ejection fraction greater than 30%.

Purpose: Omental infarction (OI) following laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) for gastric cancer could become more common in the future because the indications for LAG are expected to expand. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical characteristics of OI following LAG. Materials and Methods: Three hundred ninety patients who underwent LAG for T1 or T2 gastric cancer from April 2003 to November 2007 were enrolled. OI was diagnosed by two radiologists using the patients' abdominal 16 row-detector CT scans. The clinicopathologic characteristics were retrospectively evaluated in the omental infarction (OI) group and the non-omental infarction (non-OI) group using the gastric cancer database of Dong-A University Medical Center and the medical record. Results: Nine omental infarctions (2.3%) of 390 LAGs were diagnosed. All the OIs could be discriminated from omental metastasis on the initial or follow up CT images. The location of the omental infarctions was on the epigastrium in 3 patients and in the left upper quadrant in 3 patients. The mean size of the OIs was 4.1 cm. Most patients with OI had no signs or symptoms. The body mass index of the OI group was higher than that of the non-OI group (P=0230), and OI was more common in patients who underwent total gastrectomy than in the patients who underwent subtotal gastrectomy (P=0.0011). Conclusion: Laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) with partial omentectomy for gastric cancer can be a cause of secondary OI. Omental infarction after LAG has different clinical characteristics and CT findings that those of other omental infarctions or postoperative omental metastases. Further multicenter study will be needed to evaluate in detail the clinical features of omental infarction after LAG.

매서운 칼바람이 부는 겨울은 날씨가 추워지는 만큼 건강관리에도 신경을 써야 하는 계절이다. 특히 심근경색은 더더욱 그러하다. 최근 런던열 의과대학 크리시난 바스카란교수의 연구결과에 의하면 기온 1도가 떨어지면 1개월간 심근경색이 발생할 위험이 2% 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 본격적인 겨울에 들어서는 12월, 심근경색 전선에 이상 징후는 없는지 체크리스트를 통해 점검해보자.

Dizziness is one of the common symptoms in many patients. The disorders of the labyrinth, vestibular nerve, vestibular neclei, or their central connections are responsible for practically all vertigo. Most disorders of the central connections are the vascular diseases and tumors. This study is based on the clinical consideration of one patient who sufferd from the cerebellar infarction and the upper respiratory infection. The patient, 61 - year - old man was diagnosed as the cerebellar infarction has been troubled with dizziness, a headache, a sore throat, a cough etc. The symptoms are classed as the Sanchopungyeul.(上焦風熱) Pungdam(風痰), and we prescribed Qingyanligetang(淸咽利膈湯) for him and his symptoms took a tum for the better.

The most common anatomic location of calcific tendinitis is the suprasupinatus muscle of the shoulder joint. However, it is known to develop in any joint including the hip, knee. Infarction of skeletal muscle in the distal areas of the limbs due to vascular occlusion is a well recognized systemic condition in patients who have diabetes. The author experienced mass-like lesion combined muscle infarction and calcification within pure semitendinosus tendon without diabetes in posterosuperior area of distal thigh in old age.

We studied on some techniques which are able to discriminate the difference between normal and infarcted myocardium by consecutive image analysis in B-mode echocardiogram. In order to analyze two-dimensional echocardiogram, we presented inter-frame and intra-frame analysis method throughout the complete heart cycle in closed-chest human and proposed new analysis parameters which are named HGE and LT. The analysis technique using the proposed parameters revealed quantitatively dominant features between normal and infarcted regions. The infarcted areas yield regions of higher intensity throughout the entire cardiac cycle, but normal tissue demonstrates greater variability throughout the entire cardiac cycle. Hence, we could verify that these parameters varying over the entire cardiac cycle are good indicators for the state of myocardium.
