Congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula is a rare cardiac defect that causes coronary arterial flow to drain into the right cardiac chambers, the pulmonary artery, the coronary sinus, or the left cardiac chambers. The most frequently involved vessel is the right coronary artery. We experienced a case that had a coronary arteriovenous fistula associated with valvular heart disease. With the cardiopulmonary bypass done under hypothermia, mitral valve replacement was accomplished and the fistulas of both proximal and distal portions of the right coronary artery were closed with 3-0 prolene. Postoperative course was uneventful.

양방향 상행대정맥-폐동맥 단락술 후 폰탄 수술의 위험이 큰 2명의 환자에서 청색증의 증가와 운동 능력의 감소를 보여 액와동정맥루 형성술을 시행하였다. 수술 후 두 환자 모두 수술 후 1일째 일반 병실로 전원되었으며, 수술 후 각각 4일, 3일에 퇴원하였다. 두 증례 모두 수술 후 volume loading의 소견은 없었고, 8개월째 추적 관찰 중이며 청색증의 감소와 운동 능력의 향상을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러나 수술 후 6개월째 시행한 폐관류스캔이나 contrast심초음파 검사에서 폐동정맥루가 아직 충분히 경감되지 않아, 향후 이에 대한 면밀한 추적 관찰이 필요할 것으로 생각한다.

\ulcorner증례는 매우 드물게 보고되는 질환인 체동맥에서 혈류공급을 받는 폐동정맥루의 수술례에 관한 보고이다. 이 체동맥 폐동정맥루는 수술시 부행혈관으로 인한 출혈과 폐의 울혈로 어려움을 겪기 쉽다. 환자는 재발성의 빈번한 객혈을 주소로 내원한 16세 여자 환자로 다발성의 공급혈관을 갖는 체폐동정맥루로 진단받고 수술 전에 동맥색전술을 시행한 후 수술을 시행한 경우이다. 우중엽과 우하엽에 걸친 15$\times$8 cm의 동정맥루로 우하엽 및 우중엽 절제술을 시행하였다. 수술시 심한 출혈과 폐울혈로 어려움을 겪었으나 수술후 15일째에 별 다른 합병증없이 퇴원하였다. 안전한 수술을 위해서는 비록 많은 수의 부행혈관으로 어려움이 있더라도 폐정맥의 결찰전에 이를 모두 결찰하는 것이 반드시 필요할 것으로 사료되어 보고하는 바이다.

상하지 혈관 손상은 높은 사망률과 관계가 있다. 사지 혈관 손상에 대한 전통적인 치료법은 수술이었으나 최근 기술과 시술법의 비약적인 발달로 인해 혈관 내 치료법(endovascular treatment)의 효용 및 임상 적용이 증가하고 있다. 상하지 혈관 손상에서 시행할 수 있는 혈관 내 치료는 크게 스텐트 그래프트(stent graft) 설치술과 색전술로 나눠볼 수 있으며 일반적으로 손상 혈관의 위치와 크기, 혈관 손상의 성격에 따라 치료법이 달라진다. 겨드랑-쇄골하동맥과 장골 동맥 손상의 경우 해부학적 위치상 수술적인 접근이 어려운 것으로 알려져 있으며 스텐트 그래프트 설치술이 수술을 대신할 수 있는 중요한 치료법으로 활용되고 있다. 활동성 출혈, 가성동맥류, 동정맥루 및 색전 시 허혈이 우려되지 않는 동맥의 손상에 대해서는 색전술을 고려해 볼 수 있다. 상하지의 혈관 손상에 대한 혈관 내 치료법은 최소침습적으로 진단과 치료를 동시에 할 수 있다는 장점이 있어 향후 그 적응증이 더 넓어질 것으로 기대된다.

Coronary arteriovenous fistula is a relatively rare congenital heart disease and it drains into right atrium, right ventricle, pulmonary artery, coronary sinus or superior vena cava. We experienced one case of fistulous communication between right coronary artery and right ventricle which was most common condition. The patient was a 12 year old female and the only sign was continuous cardiac murmur. The cardiac catheterization and coronary angiography showed the fistulous communication between right coronary artery and right ventricle and aneurysmal dilatation of right coronary artery. Under the cardiopulmonary bypass with the hypothermic cardioplegia, fistula opening[7mm] which was located at right ventricle below the tricuspid valve annulus between septal and posterior leaflet was closed with 4 - 0 prolene continuous suture through right ventriculotomy. Her postoperative course was uneventful.

Congenital coronary arterial fistulae are the most prevalent hemodynamically significant congenital coronary artery malformations. Definition of congenital coronary arterial fistula is a direct communication between a coronary artery and the lumen of one of the four cardiac chambers or coronary sinus or SVC, pulmonary artery or pulmonary vein close to the heart. It is often associated with additional congenital or acquired heart disease. A 49 year old male patient was admitted with the chief complaints of anginal pain and exertional dyspnea for 9 months. He was diagnosed as the right coronary arterial fistula combined with right coronary arteriosclerotic stenosis and old inferior myocardial infarction by cardiac evaluation. The right coronary arterial fistula was communicated between the just distal portion of acute marginal branch and coronary sinus. The operative procedure was as followings; after suture ligation of fistula opening in the coronary sinus under beating heart, coronary arterial bypass grafting with saphenous vein was performed at the just proximal portion of the posterior descending branch under cardiopulmonary bypass. The postoperative course was uneventful and he was discharged without anginal pain at the 8th postoperative day.

Congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula is a communication of a coronary artery with one of the atria, ventricles, the coronary sinus, the superior vena cava, or the pulmonary artery. We had a successful surgical experience with 63 year-old-female patient who complained substernal chest pain on exertion for 8 years. On auscultation, a continuous murmur was heard at the left second to third intercostal space along the left sternal border. The right cardiac catheterization was revealed to 4% oxygen step up between right ventricle to main pulmonary artery, and Qp/Qs was 1.3:1. The selective coronary arteriography showed markedly tortuous dilated vessel which originated from left coronary artery draining into the main pulmonary artery. The operation performed to mid portion of tortuous and dilated fistula by multiple ligation with 3-0 Mersilene and suture ligation with pledgetted 3-0 Prolene on distal draining site, Postoperative course were uneventful without any symptoms and complications.

Congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula is relatively uncommon, but with widespread use of cardiac catheterization, angiography and selective coronary arteriography are being recognized with increasing frequency. Recently we experienced one case of congenital coronary artery fistula which originated from the right coronary artery. The case was 25 year-old-male, who complained of dyspnea on exertion and continuous murmur was heard, and diagnosed as right coronary artery fistula by the cardiac catheterization and aortography. On the operation field, the right coronary artery was markedly dilated from aorta to the middle segment at acute margin of the right ventricle, which the hen-egg sized aneurysm was noticed. The dilated coronary ostium and fistular site were obliterated with several horizontal mattress sutures. And the dilated tortuous right coronary artery with aneurysm was excised. Postoperative course was uneventful and discharged without problem.

Since Krause first described coronary arteriovenous fistula in 1865, there have been nearly 300 additional patients with this malformation reported in the literature. Increasing numbers of patients with this anomaly are being recognized each year resulting from the widespread use of cardiac catheterization and selective coronary arteriography in the evaluation of a variety of cardiac problems. A 9 month old male was admitted with the chief complaint of cardiac murmur and frequent URI and diagnosed as coronary A-V fistula at the distal portion of left anterior descending coronary artery to the apex of the right ventricle by cardiac catheterization and aortography. On the operative field, the left anterior descending coronary was markedly dilated about 1.5 cm in diameter from the aorta to the apex of the heart. The fistula opening was closed with 5-0 Prolene continuously under cardiopulmonary bypass and moderate hypothermia[28*C]. Postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged without problem.

뇌농양은 심각한 신경학적 후유증을 일으킬 수 있는 중추신경계 감염이다. 신경집중치료 발달에도 불구하고, 여전히 뇌농양은 특정 위험 환자에게 높은 사망률을 보이고 있다. 특히 세균성 뇌농양은 즉각 진단 및 적절한 항생제 치료가 필요한 응급 상황이다. 또한 드물게 뇌농양이 재발되는 경우도 있다. 본 연구에서는 두통으로 내원한 59세 남자환자를 대상으로 증례보고를 통해 동일 분야 연구에 활용하고자 자료분석을 하였다. 59세 남자가 두통을 주소로 내원하였고, 연속적으로 시행한 뇌자기공명영상과 뇌척수액 검사에서 우측 전두엽에 뇌농양을 확인하였고, 항생제 치료 및 수술적 치료 후 완치하였다. 퇴원 후 5개월 뒤 두통 및 경기 증상 있어 다시 촬영한 뇌자기공명영상에서 뇌농양의 재발이 확인되었다. 뇌농양 재발은 특정 조건, 즉, 농양 부위에 이물질이 남아 있거나 만성 부비동염, 동정맥루, 좌우션트 등이 있을 때 생길 수 있다.
