Abdominal organs are the most vulnerable body parts under vehicle trauma, and there is high mortality from acute injuries in accidents. There are various ways to reduce this high mortality; one method is Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta, which has recently become very popular as a minimally invasive alternative in the emergent management of patients with non-compressible hemorrhages below the diaphragm. However, high safety factor for patients is applied in actual clinical practice because there is no exact standard for the operating time. Therefore, in this study, the effects of the mechanical behavior of organ tissues for the duodenum, kidney, and liver on the operating time of Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta is investigated in order to obtain data needed to establish standards of operating time. In characteristic analysis of organ tissues, uniaxial tensile test and compression test are conducted according to the operating time.

A carotid artery resection and replacement including neck dissection are used as a method of treatment for head and neck cancer with infiltration into the carotid artery. The recent development of imaging technique makes it easy to estimate the detailed anatomical relationship between the tumor infiltration into the carotid artery, it's resection and replacement are indicated at radical neck dissection. To detect any possibility of cerebral ischemia at the time of ligation of carotid artery, a temporary occlusion test of internal carotid artery with a ballon catheter (balloon occlusion test) is performed. Recently, we performed a carotid artery resection and replacement using an artificial vessel Gore-Tex) in a case of neck cancer with infiltration into the carotid artery.

Fusiform aneurysms on the basilar artery (BA) trunk are rare. The microsurgical management of these aneurysms is difficult because of their deep location, dense collection of vital cranial nerves, and perforating arteries to the brain stem. Endovascular treatment is relatively easier and safer compared with microsurgical treatment. Selective occlusion of the aneurysmal sac with preservation of the parent artery is the endovascular treatment of choice. But, some cases, particularly giant or fusiform aneurysms, are unsuitable for selective sac occlusion. Therefore, endovascular coiling of the aneurysm with parent vessel occlusion is an alternative treatment option. In this situation, it is important to determine whether a patient can tolerate parent vessel occlusion without developing neurological deficits. We report a rare case of fusiform aneurysms in the BA trunk. An 18-year-old female suffered a headache for 2 weeks. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance image revealed a fusiform aneurysm of the lower basilar artery trunk. Digital subtraction angiography revealed a $7.1{\times}11.0$ mm-sized fusiform aneurysm located between vertebrovasilar junction and the anterior inferior cerebellar arteries. We had good clinical result using endovascular coiling of unruptured fusiform aneurysm on the lower BA trunk with parent vessel occlusion after confirming the tolerance of the patient by balloon test occlusion with induced hypotension and accompanied by neurophysiologic monitoring, transcranial Doppler and single photon emission computed tomography. In this study, we discuss the importance of preoperative meticulous studies for avoidance of delayed neurological deficit in the patient with fusiform aneurysm on lower basilar trunk.

Internal carotid artery (ICA) trapping can be used for the treatment of giant intracranial aneurysms, blood blister-like aneurysms, and fusiform dissecting aneurysms. Fusiform dissecting aneurysms are challenging to treat surgically and endovascularly because of no definite neck and critical perforators. Surgical or endovascular trapping of the ICA with or without an extracranial-intracranial bypass has commonly been used as an effective method to treat these lesions, but balloon test occlusion (BTO) must be performed. Here, we report a case of a ruptured fusiform dissecting aneurysm of the distal ICA, which was successfully treated using an endovascular ICA trapping with a manual ICA compression test instead of BTO.

Objectives: The authors tried to analyze the results of carotid artery sacrifice with or without preoperative carotid evaluation. Materials and Methods: Thirteen patients undergone carotid sacrifice were evaluated. Carotid balloon occlusion test (BOT) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with technetium-99m-labeled hexamethylpropyleneamineoxime ($^{99m}Tc-HMPAO$) were used for preoperative carotid evaluation. Results: The causes of carotid artery sacrifice consisted of the neck mass involving the carotid artery, spontaneous aneurysmal rupture, and traumatic pseudoaneurysm. Five patient had postoperative neurologic complications and two of them had permanent neurologic deficits. Conclusion: The authors stress that the preoperative evaluation in carotid artery sacrifice is imperable, and the BOT with SPECT can be used in selecting the method of treatment. But since these tests cannot predict the postoperative outcome perfectly, careful perioperative care of the patients should be exercised regardless of the results of the preoperative evaluation.

Objectives: We studied what is the role of elective carotid artery resection in the management of advanced cervical metastatic cancer. Materials and Methods: 5 patients with elective carotid artery resection in advanced metastatic cervical cancer were reviewed retrospectively. The patients underwent complete neuroradiologic evaluation, including CT/MRI. angiography, duplex doppler, balloon occlusion test with EEG, and brain SPECT for determination of compatible collateral circulation after carotid artery resection. Results: Perioperative complication were appeared in 2 patients those were middle cerebral arterial infarction and mediastinal bleeding. Postoperative mortality rate was 20%. 4 patients recurred within 1 year. Conclusion: Preoperative collateral study rarely provide whether resection carotid artery or not. Elective carotid artery resection cannot provide locoregional control of tumor and don't promote survival.

외상성 경동맥 해면동루의 치료를 위해 8명의 환자에서 Goldvalve형 풍선을 이용한 치료를 시도 하였다. 전 례에서 동맥을 통한 누공 폐색을 시도하여 성공적으로 누공을 폐색하였다. 5례에서는 내경동맥을 보존할 수 있었으나 다른 경우는 내경동맥과 누공을 함께, 내경동맥의 해면동부 전체, 그리고 일관성 흑내장 방지위해 내경동맥과 누공 도한 내경동맥 기시부를 함께 폐색시킨 예가 각각 1례씩 있었다. 누공만을 폐색시킨 1례에서 증상이 재발하여 수술로 치료하였다. 주요 합병증으로는 3례의 두통과 1례의 허혈성 편마비가 있었으나 자연소실 되었다. 이러한 결과를 볼 때 CCF는 분리풍선을 이용하여 누공만을 폐색시켜 치료하는 것이 유리할 것으로 생각된다.

저자들은 두개 기저나 경부종괴 또는 내경동맥의 동맥류등으로 인하여 내경동맥의 결찰이 필요한 환자에 있어서 객관적인 관점에서 수술전에 영구적인 내경동맥의 결찰의 안전성에 관하여 $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO 뇌 SPECT를 이용하여 보고자 하였다. 내경동맥의 결찰이 고려되는 24명의 두개기저나 경부종괴 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 저자들은 풍선 시험 결찰술 시행전과 시행중의 양측 중대뇌동맥 영역의 섭취정도를 $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO 뇌 SPECT를 이용하여 비교해보았고 이러한 결과를 신경학적 검사, 경동맥 스텀프압 고리고 뇌전도검사등과 비교해 보았다. 대상환자중 19명의 환자에서는 풍선 시험 결찰술 동안 신경학적 이상등의 문제들을 경험하지 않았고 이들에 있어 중대뇌동맥영역의 섭취정도는 결찰술 시행전에 비교하여 95-101%에 해당하였다. 나머지 5명의 환자에서는 일과성 반신마비와 의식소실등의 심한 신경학적 증상을 보였고 이들에 있어 중대뇌동맥 영역의 섭취정도는 시행전에 비하여 77-85%에 해당하였으며 다른 검사결과와도 잘 부합되었다. 결론적으로 풍선시험결찰술 시행전과 시행중의 $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO 뇌 SPECT는 중대뇌동맥영역의 섭취가 시행전에 비교하여 85%이하인 경우 영구적인 신경학적 결손을 예측할 수 있는 간단하고 객관적인 방법이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare surgical revisions and balloon angioplasty after surgical thrombectomy on thrombosed dialysis access as a first event. Materials and Methods: Records of patients undergoing creation of arteriovenous grafts (AVGs) at the Gachon University Gil Medical Center between March 2008 and February 2016 were reviewed. Among them, patients who underwent treatment on first-time thrombotic occlusion after AVG creation were identified. Outcomes were primary, primary-assisted, and secondary patency. The patency was generated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and patency rates were compared by log-rank test. Results: A total of 59 de novo interventions (n=26, hybrid interventions; n=33, surgical revisions) for occlusive AVGs were identified. The estimated 1-year primary patency rates were 47% and 30% in the surgery and hybrid groups, respectively. The estimated primary patency rates were not different between the two groups (log-rank test, P=0.73). The Kaplan-Meier estimates of 6 and 12 months for primary-assisted patency rates were 68% and 57% in the surgery group and 56% and 56% in the hybrid group. The Kaplan-Meier estimates of 12 and 24 months secondary patency rates were 90% and 71% in the surgery group and 79% and 62% in the hybrid group. There were no differences in the estimated primary-assisted and secondary patency rates between the two groups. Conclusion: Our results showed no significant difference between the two groups in terms of primary patency (P=0.73), primary-assisted patency (P=0.85), and secondary patency (P=0.78). However, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty can give more therapeutic options for both surgeons and patients.
