Tracheoinnominate artery fistula is a rare but a catastrophic complication after tacheostomy or tracheal reconstruction. We experienced one case of tracheoinnominate artery fistula after tracheal reconstruction. The patient was a 11 year old girl with cerebral arteriovenous malformation who maintained tracheostomy for 6 months before undergoing tracheal reconstruction. She complained of dyspnea and paroxysmal cough 5 months after tracheostomy and was diagnosed as tracheal stenosis. We performed 4cm of tracheal resection and end to end anastomosis. Three days after tracheal reconstruction, massive bleeding occurred through the intubation tube. She underwent emergency reoperation of repair the innominate artery with 5-0 Prolene and re-reconstruction of trachea. The patient died of bleeding 3 days after the reoperation.

One hundred and sixty patients had reconstructive surgery of the lower extremity with the microsurgical technique at the department of orthopaedic surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine from 1982 to 1989. There were ninty-six cases of men and sixty-four cases of women, in which the mean age was 23.8 years. These patients were followed for 21.4 months. The causes were 114 cases from traffic accidents, 18 cases from tumors, 12 cases from machinery injuries, 5 cases from burns, 2 cases from explosive injuries, and 9 cases from other reasons. There were 55 cases of scapular flap, 35 cases of groin flap, 23 cases of free vascularized osteocutaneous flap, 18 cases of parascapular flap, 9 cases of combined scapular and latissimus dorsi flaps, and 8 cases of segmental resection and rotationplasty. Success in reconstructive surgery with the microsurgical technique was achieved in one hundred and thirty four cases, and function and cosmetic results were excellent. Free vascularized flap with development of the microsurgical technique has taken an important role in reconstruction of large extremity defects where skin graft and distant flap were not applicable. Reconstruction of the lower extremity with the microsurgical technique is indicated with free vascularized osteocutaneous flap when there is a large defect of bone, a need for injured nerve replacement, and in the case of needed multiple staged operations. In these instences, this technique is regarded as simple one-staged reconstructive surgery.

흉부 둔상에 의한 기도와 식도의 동시적 파열상은 매우 드물게 발생되고 있다. 그러나 최그들어 고속 교통사고의 증가와 환자에 대한 응급체계의 발전으로 점차 치험 보고례가 증가되고 있다. 저자들은 흉부의 둔상에 의하여 기도와 식도에 종적으로 긴 파열상을 입은 환자 2례의 치험을 보고한다. 1례는 이전 병원에서 시행한 기관식도 재건술이 실패한 상태에서 전원되어와 2차적으로 식도절제 및 기관재건술을 실시하였으나 사망하였고. 다른 1례는 식도절제 및 기도재건술로 합병증이 없이 생존하였다.

식도와 인두 재건은 연하작용을 원활하게하고 발선기능을 보존하면서 위험부담이 가장 절은 술식을 선택하는 것이 원칙이다. 술식의 선택에 고려되어야 할 주요 인자는 결손부위의 크기, 창상의 상태, 술전 방사선치료 여부, 환자의 전신상태 등이다. 부분인두결손에는 유경근피판(pedicled myocutaneous flap)이나 유리피판이 적합하며 방사선 치료를 받은 경우는 유리피판이 유리하다. 흉곽입구 상부에 국한된 인두와 식도의 전체둘레결손에는 전완부, 외측 대퇴부, 공장의 유리피판이 좋다. 전완부는 피판이 다루기 쉽다는 장점이 있지만 공여부에 합병증이나 미용상의 문제가 있고 외측 대퇴부는 공여부의 문제는 매우 적으나 피판의 사용이 전완부에 비하여 약간 제한적이다. 공장은 허혈에 약하고 공여부 합병증이 다른 피판에 비해 불리하다. 저자의 경험으로는 흉곽상부에 국한된 결손의 재건에 환자가 비만하거나 대퇴부에 털이 많은 경우는 전완부 유리피판이 좋고 그렇지 않으면 외측 대퇴부 유리피판을 선택하는 것이 좋다고 생각된다. 흉곽입구 하방까지 연장된 결손이나 식도전적출술로 인한 결손에는 위전위술이 가장 적합하다. 방사선치료 등으로 창상에 혈관보호가 요구되는 경우는 대흉근피판이 유용하다. 앞으로 새로운 재건술의 개발이 이어지겠지만 모든 환자에게 맞는 이상적인 재건술은 없다. 재건술마다의 장단점과 제약점을 파악하고 환자의 조건에 따라 가장 적절한 재건술을 선택하는 것이 중요하다.

A 75-year-old man presented with worsening dyspnea and intermittent dysphagia of one month's duration. A plain chest X-ray showed severe tracheal indentation by the right superior mediastinal mass. A chest CT established the diagnosis of a saccular aneurysm arising from the right proximal subclavian artery. Resection of the aneurysm and arterial revascularization was done through a median sternotomy with supraclavicular extension. Aneurysm wall and thrombus culture results were negative and pathology showed an atherosclerotic aneurysm. After the operation, dyspnea and dysphagia were reduced, but he died of advanced stomach cancer 8 months later.

The Rastelli operation has been a standard procedure for repairing complete transposition of the great arteries combined with a ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. Yet this procedure has several shortcomings, including the risk of incurring left ventricular outflow tract obstruction on long-term follow-up. In this regard, aortic translocation has recently been regarded as a potent alternative to Rastelli's operation. We report here on a case of complete transposition of the great arteries that was combined with an inlet-extended perimembranous ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis in a 2-year-old boy. All the problems were successfully repaired using the aortic translocation technique. Postoperative echocardiography showed a straight and wide left ventricular outflow tract.
