배경 : 류마티스성 승모판막 폐쇄부전증과 퇴행성 승모판막 폐쇄부전증에서 승모판막 성형술의 결과와 비교하여 류마티스성 승모판막 폐쇄부전증에서도 승모팍막성형술이 적합한 치료방법이 될 수 있는지를 알아보았다. 대상 및 방법 : 95년 1월부터 98년 12월 까지 승모판막 성형술을 시행받은 184명의 환자중에서 류마티스성 승모판막 폐쇄부전증 49례(1군)의 퇴행성 승모판막 폐쇄부전증 78례(2군)를 대상으로 하였다. 평균연령은 1군이 36.3$\pm$14.6(16-74세) 2군은 52.5$\pm$13.4(14-77)세였다 총 추적 관찰기간은 1군이 72.2인년 2군이77.2인년이었다 두군에서 수술후와 수술후 6개월 1년 및 이후 1년 단위로 주기적인 심초음파를 시행하였고 이를 통계적 검정하였다. 결과 : 두 군간에 수술전 혈류역학적인 차이를 보이지 않았고 수술전 평균 승모판막 폐쇄 부전의 정도는 1군이 3.0$\pm$0.4, 2군이 3.9$\pm$0.3였으나 수술후 추적 관찰에서 각각 0.9$\pm$0.9와 0.8$\pm$0.7정도의 양호한 판막 성형술의 결과를 보였고 승모판막 면적의 변화나 승모판막에서의 평균압력차이 등 혈류역학적인 결과에도 차이를 보이고 있지 않았다 수술조기 사망과 후기 사망은 없었으며 재수술율은 1군이 인년대비 1.4% 2군이 인년대비 2.6%였고 색전발생율은 1군이 인년대비 2.8% 2군이 1.3%였다. 심내막염발생은 1군에서만 1례있었으며 상기 결과들에서 두군간에 의미있는 차이를 보이고 있지는 않았다 결론 : 향후 장기적인 추적 관찰이 필요하나 중기 성적에서 승모판막 성형술이 류마티스성 승모판막 폐쇄 부전증에서도 효과적인 치료방법임을 알수 있었다.다 출생후 폐포막의 FN의 활성은 출생후 5일 및 7일에 최고주에 달했다. 출생직후 1-2일경에 혈관의 조직내 FN의 활성이 양성을 나타내지만 3일이후 활성이감소되었다. 폐포대식세포내 FN의 활성은 출생후 증가되었다. 폐조직내 소기관지의 FN의 활성은 출생후 완만하게 상승되었다. 큰 폐포세포는 출생 1-3일에 일정량의 FN 반응이 세포질과 미세융모내에 관찰되었다. 결론 : 이상과 같은 결과로 흰쥐의 폐포의 분화과정이 계속되는 출생후 폐에서 FN의 분비는 7일이내에 성숙흰쥐의 폐포내 반응과 비슷한 반응으르 보이며 이때 폐의 실질조직은 분화가 거의 완료되었을 것으로 사료되었고 큰 폐포세포에서도 FN이 분비되는 것으로 결론지울수 있다.X>에서 $1,332.75{\mu}g/mL$으로 최 대값을 나타내었으며, 추출시간 4.24시간 및 시료에 대한 용매비 9.71 mL/g에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 추출온도가 높고, 추출시간이 증가할수록 총 polyphenol 함량이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. Gallic acid 함량은 $65.84^{\circ}C$에서 $30.51{\mu}g/mL$으로 최대값을 나타내 었으며, 추출시간 1.65시간 및 시료에 대한 용매비 17.17mL/g에서 가장 높은 추출율을 보였다. Gallic acid 함량에 대한 추출조건의 영향은 추출시간과 용매비에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 설정된 범위 내에서 온도에 대한 영향은 거의 나타나지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 실험연구가 더 필요하리라 본다. 혈액학적 변화를 유도하고 환자의 연령, 혈소판 수, 대동맥 차단 시간, 체외 순환 시간, 술후 PT 및 aPTT와 같은 다인적 상황들이 술후 출혈에 영향을 미친다는 점들을 시사하고

A 60-year-old female was admitted to our hospital complaining of dyspnea. In the past history, she had received tracheal diversion due to recurrent aspiration after brain surgery and tracheostomy. Emergency three dimensional spiral tracheal computed tomograhpy revealed distal tracheal stenosis. The operation was performed by anterior tracheoplasty using glutaraldehyde-soaked autologous pericardium through median sternotomy. Herein we report a case of anterior tracheoplasty using glutaraldehyde-soaked autologous pericardium.

A 52-year-old man was taken to the emergency room following a motor vehicle accident. An echocardiogram showed moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation due to rupture of the anterior chordae. An operation to repair the tarumatic tricuspid regurgitation was recommended; however, the patient refused because he was asymptomatic. Two years later, he developed mild generalized edema and dyspnea. The echocardiogram revealed progressive severe tricuspid regurgitation and annular dilatation. We treated the tricuspid regurgitation successfully using artificial chordae and ring annuloplasty.

Surgical angioplasty of isolated stenosis of the left main coronary artery(LMCA) restores a more physiologic flow to the myocardium, allows percutdneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) of distal coronary stenoses at a later stage, and is a less time consuming and convenient procedure than the conventional coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) . Between Jul. 1994 and Dec. 1995, 7 surgical angioplasty had been performed. LMCA stenoses involved ostium in 2 patients, middle third in 3, and dis- tal third in 2. In 2 patients, the origin of left anterior descending coronary artery was involved in conjunction with LMCA. T e additional coronary artery stenoses were found in 2 cases. One patient was emergently operated after coronary angiography following his cardiac arrest. LMCA was approached anteriorly in all patients. The pulmonary artery was transected in 3 patients for a better exposure. The onlay patch consisted or autologous or bovine pericardium. There was no postoperative myocardial infarction or mortality. Left ventricular functions were well preserved in all patients. Postoperative coronary angiography revealed widely patent LMCA in 5 cases, and mild narrowing of distal anastomotic sites in 2 cases. Provided that well defined indications are followed correctly, surgical angioplasty can be a safe alternative to conventional CABG.

Peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) of the femoropopliteal artery is commonly caused by atherosclerosis. It can present with varying clinical symptoms depending on the degree of disease, ranging from intermittent claudication to critical limb ischemia and tissue loss. Therefore, appropriate and timely treatment is required to improve symptoms and salvage the affected limbs. Interventional approaches for femoropopliteal arterial disease commonly include percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, atherectomy, and stent placement. Over the years, endovascular recanalization has been widely performed for treating PAOD due to continuous developments in its techniques and availability of dedicated devices with the inherent advantage of being minimal invasive. In this review, we introduce various types of endovascular treatment methods, discuss the results of clinical research from existing literature, and illustrate the treatment procedures using representative images.

Background: Salvaging prosthetic arteriovenous grafts can be performed using surgical or endovascular techniques. We conducted a retrospective analysis to compare the efficacy of these two methods for restoring dialysis graft function. Material and Method: We studied 41 patients who had received surgical thrombectomy with revision (Group A) or percutaneous thrombectomy with angioplasty (Group B) from January 2006 to December 2007. We compared them according to the patient characteristics and the location of stenotic lesions, and we analyzed the post-intervention primary patency rates. Result: 21 patients underwent surgery and 20 patients underwent percutaneous balloon angioplasty. There were no significant differences of the patients' characteristics between the two groups. Venous anastomotic stenosis was the most common cause of graft thrombosis in both groups. In Group A, 90.5% of the grafts remained functional at 6 months and 38.1% remained functional at 12 months. In Group B, 55.0% of the grafts were functional at 6 months and 20.0% of the grafts were functional at 12 months. The post-intervention primary patency rate was significantly better in Group A (p=0.034). Conclusion: Surgical treatment resulted in significantly longer post-intervention primary patency in this study, and this supports its use as the primary method of management for most patients in whom dialysis graft obstruction develops.

There are many vessels in oral and maxillofacial region. Therefore blood oozing is a frequent findings in this area when operation takes place. Beacuse of this, most oral and maxillofacial surgeons as well as operators of this region usually use bosmine soaked gauze for oozing control during operation. Theoretically overdose of systemic epiniephrine(bosmine) may lead to pulmonary edema due to secondary systemic volume overload. For this reason, oral and maxillofacial surgeons should give more attention to the use of bosmine soaked gauze. In spite of this possibility, epinephrine induced pulmonary edema using bosmine soaked gauze has not been reported. We experienced one case of pulmonary edema which was induced by epinephrine overdose by bosmine soaked gauze that has not been diluted by mistake in preparing bosmine soaked gauze. The authuors report a case with review of literature.

Percutaneous coronary angioplasty is well established therapeutic modality in the management of coronary artery disease. However, the high restenosis rate of 30 to 50% limits its usefulness. The principal mechanism of restenosis, intimal hyperplasia, is the proliferative response of vessel wall to injury, which consists largely of smooth muscle cells. A large body of animal investigations and a limited number of clinical studies have established the ability of ionizing radiation to reduce neointimal proliferation and restenosis rate significantly. Human studies have been reported that intravascular radiation after first restenosis inhibits a second restenosis. Encouraged by these reports, we are also conducting a double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial to evaluate this new therapeutic modality in patients with coronary artery stenosis. The objective of our trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of catheter-based solutional beta emitting radioisotope system in preventing restenosis after angioplasty. This review describes the vascular brachytherapy systems and isotopes that have been utilized in the initial clinical trials performed in this area of post PTCA coronary restenosis. The results of many worldwide ongoing clinical trials will determine whether this new technology will change the future practice of vascular intervention.

Leiomyoma of the bronchus is a very rare, benign tumor of the lung. We herein report a case of endobronchial leiomyoma which was treated by sleeve bronchoplasty without resection of the lung and without any complications. A 35-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of stridor. Bronchoscopy revealed a round, hypervascular and smooth tumor nearly obstructing the left main bronchus at 1.5 cm distal portion from the carina. Biopsy was not performed for fear of massive hemorrhage. A sleeve resection of left main bronchus including the tumor and end-to-end anastomosis were performed. The histologic diagnosis was leiomyoma. The early diagnosis and appropriate surgical treatment to preserve the pulmonary function are important points of consideration.
