Nineteen patients with various types of cyanotic congenital heart disease underwent systemic-pulmonary artery shunts with a microporous polytetrafluoroethylene [PTFE] graft between September, 1983, and April, 1985. Age ranged from 3 months to 18 years, and seven of them were less than 12 months old. There were seventeen Great Ormond Street type of modified Blalock-Taussig shunts, and two central polytetrafluoroethylene shunt [ascending aorta-right pulmonary artery]. There was one postoperative death [1/19=5.3%] in a 10 Kg child born with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect associated with patent ductus arteriosus. He had another anomaly of imperforated anus. Relief from cyanosis was achieved in other eighteen patients with variable degree. Eighteen survivors have been followed up from 1 month to 19 months. Clinical status, auscultation, oxygen partial pressure of arterial blood, and hemoglobin have been used to establish shunt patency in all survivors. By above criteria, all survivors have good patent shunt.
Since the first report of successful ligation of patent ductus arteriosus in 1939, it`s surgical intervention has become a routine and relatively safe procedure. During the past ten years from Aug. 1975 to Aug. 1985, 107 cases were operated on for a patent ductus arteriosus at the Department of thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, School of Medicine, Kyungpook National University. Clinical analysis of these cases was performed. Mean age at operation was 9.4 years, ranging from 20 months to 32 years. Sex ratio of female to male was 1.8;1. Most common symptoms were frequent respiratory infection, exertional dyspnea, and palpitation. Diagnosis was made by auscultation, 2 dimensional echocardiography, cardiac catheterization, and cineangiocardiography. A moderate to severe pulmonary hypertension was found in 42 cases [49.4%] in cardiac catheterization. Operative methods were multiple ligation of paten`. ductus arteriosus with or without Dacron or Teflon wrapping in 72 cases [68%], and division and suture in 34 cases [32%]. There were three operative deaths [2.8%]. The causes of death were hemorrhage from tearing of aorta, low cardiac output, and arrhythmia. All of these cases had moderate degree of pulmonary hypertension.
With the ligation of a patent ductus arteriosus by Gross in 1938, surgeons first entered the field of congenital heart disease, and treatment of the patent ductus is representative of the rapid advance made in thoracic surgery in the last 40 years. We have had clinical experiences about 36 cases of this in the department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular surgery, Pusan Paik Hospital, Inje medical college from March 1891 to June 1987. And the results were summarized as follows. 1. There were 11 males, 25 females. The age range of the patients were from 8 months to 36 years with the mean age of 7.9 years. 2. The chief complaints of the patients on admission were frequent URI[50%], dyspnea on exertion[29.8%], chest pain[11.1% k 1%], growth retardation[2%], cough[2.8%], anorexia[2.8%]. But there were 11 patients[30.6%] having no subjective symptoms. 3. In auscultation, the usual continuous machinery murmur was noticed in 30 patients[83.3%], only systolic murmur in 6[16.7%]. 4. In the preoperative chest P-A views, there were noticed cardiomegaly in 20 cases, enlarged pulmonary conus and / or pulmonary plethora in 22 patients[61.1%]. 5. In the preoperative EGG findings, there were noticed pattern of LVH in 8 patients[22.2`], RVH in 2[5.6%], BVH in 4[11.5%] and normal in 19[52.89o]. 6. The size of PDA[mean] was 9.5 mm[length] and 8.8 mm[width], the range of length was from 4 to 29 mm and the range of width was from 4 to 18 mm. 7. There were noticed 6 cases which were combined with other anomalies[VSD in 2 cases, Coarctation of aorta in 2, Mitral regurgitation in 1, and AP window in 1]. 8. On operation, simple ligation of the ductus was performed in 30 cases[83.3%], division and suture-ligation in 5[13.9%]. 9. Postoperative complications were noticed in 4 cases[pneumonia in one case, wound infection or disruption in 3], but there were no mortality.
A clinical analysis was performed on 115 cases of -patent ductus arteriosus treated surgically during the period of 11 years from Aug. 1977 to Jul. 1988. at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Chungnam National University Hospital. Among 115 cases, male was 38 and female was 77 and ages ranged 12 days to 27 years old with the average of 8 7/12 years. The major clinical symptoms on admission were frequent URI attack[77.4%], dyspnea on exertion[32.2%] and palpitation[13%]. On auscultation, continuous machinery murmurs were detected in 97 cases[84.3%] and loud systolic murmurs were detected in 18 cases[15.7%]. Preoperative electrocardiographic findings were as follows: LVH 59[51.3%], RVH 12[10.4%], BVH 16[13.9%] and WNL 28[24.3%]. Radiologically, there were increased pulmonary vascularity in 104[90.4%] and cardiomegaly 62[53.9%]. Cardiac catheterization were performed in 101 cases and mean systolic pulmonary arterial pressure was 49.84*29.7mmHg and mean Qp/Qs was 2.95k1.8. Methods of operation were multiple ligation in 96, division in 11 and transpulmonary arterial repair using cardiopulmonary bypass in 8. Complication were recannalization in 2, temporary hoarseness due to left recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis in 3 and respiratory distress in 1 and overall mortality rate was 1.7%[2 cases].
A 15 years Old girl was admitted with chief complaints of intermittent claudication of lower extremity, dizziness, and headache for 5 years. On admission, malignant hypertension was noted in the upper part of body [190-150/120-110] but femoral & dorsalis pedis pulse could not palpate. Once she had experienced C. V. A. due to hypertension of upper part, about years ago. On auscultation, systolic murmur was audible along the left sternal border. E.C.G. Showed left ventricular hypertrophy pattern, and others within normal limit. Retrograde aortography demonstrated diffuse narrowing of entire thoracic aorta with underdeveloped lower abdominal aorta [below the renal artery] & both common lilac artery, and rich collaterals, but normally visualized greater arteries in the aortic arch. On left posterolasteral thoracotomy, entire descending thoracic aorta revealed marked narrowing with mild perivascular adhesion, but no mediastinal pleura adhesion. These findings suggest as congenital type of atypical coarctation in the entire thoracic aorta with mild secondary change. But histopathology was showed the findings of chronic non-specific aortitis, later. Dacron by pass graft was performed with end to side anastomosis between graft and aortic wall. After operation, all her preoperative symptoms & signs were disappeared, and discharged with good general condition.
A 3-month old female Holstein calf was presented with about a month history of intermittent dyspnea, exercise intolerance and cough despite antibiotic therapy. Auscultation revealed prominent inspiratory and exploratory crackles and wheezes over the causal cervical trachea which were heard equally over both side of the chest.4 modest amount of forced exercise caused severe respiratory distress with stertorous noise and occasional honkinglike cough. Pasteurella spp. was isolated on the nasal swabs and a hemogram showed mild leucocytosis with a mature neutrophilia and mild monocytosis. Lateral radiographs of the neck and thorax revealed a marked narrowing of the tracheal lumen extending from the level of the fifth cervical to the second thoracic vertebra, and the lung field was judged to be within normal limitsi except very mild peribronchial thickening. The hypertrophic non-union fractures of the first pair of ribs were noted with a well delineatedr redundant callus formations and also the completely healed fractures were found on the next seven pairs of ribs. A diagnosis of tracheal collapse was made, which is thought to be a traumatic origin.4 poor prognosis was given. The calf was euthanatized and necropsied. The tracheal rings from 19th to 41s1 were collapsed dorsoventrally. Histologically, there was no difference between the collapsed and normal areas of the tracheae except the folding mucosal layer in the collapsed area. This report details a case of tracheal collapse in a calli and the literature is reviewed.
The development of clinical reasoning, which is the basis of medical education, is of great importance in medical universities. One of the founders of modern structural clinical reasoning, based on the knowledge of pathological physiology, is the inventor of the stethoscope Rene Laennec (1781-1826). He described the pioneering experience of clinical reasoning in the pages of his treatise A Treatise on the Diseases of the Chest and on Mediate Auscultation, which is of lasting value, since every rookie physicians in his professional development goes through the path of Laennec. Laennec's practice is of great importance for novice physicians since Laennec's treatise contains a diagnostic analysis of the most common clinical cases. Each such analysis demonstrates the algorithm of clinical reasoning. The purpose of this study was to analyze the approaches of clinical reasoning by René Laennec, which made it possible to identify two basic principles. Laennec's diagnostic reasoning involved two principles: pathogenetic analysis of clinical manifestations and a syndrome-based approach to differential diagnosis. These principles help distinguish between diseases with similar symptoms and physical findings are used to demonstrate the practical application of syndrome-based differential diagnosis. These principles can be easily mastered by understanding the pathogenesis of clinical manifestations. Thanks to the pathogenetic basis, the principles of clinical reasoning of Rene Laennec are universal and applicable to the analysis of any signs of the disease: not only physical but also laboratory and instrumental.
Pure red cell aplasia is unusual cause of anemia and a selective aplastic disorder that affects the erythroid series of the bone marrow. Fifty percent of all patients with red cell aplasia will have a thymoma. Twenty-five to 30% of those who undergo thymectomy will be cured. A 57-years-old man was admitted to the medical department of Korea University hospital with complaints. Physical examination reveals a sick looking man with a pale lip, anemic conjunctiva and subicteric sclera. On auscultation, coarse breathing sound and moist rale was heard on the right lung field. Neither the liver nor spleen was palpable. A blood count showed the erythrocytes to number 2,640,000/mm3 and hemoglobin to be 7.0gm/dl. A white blood cell count was 5,000/mm3 and a platelet count was 328,000/mm3 Reticulocyte count was 0.7%. Examination of the peripheral blood smear showed the red cell, to be normocytic and normochromic. Urine sugar was three positive and GTT was positive. The anterior-posterior and lateral view of Chest X-ray was suggestive of an anterior mediastinal mass. A bone marrow biopsy reveals absence of red cell precursors and a normal myeloid series and megakaryocytes. At thoracotomy in May 1980 an encapsulated, lobulated, benign thymoma, which measured 5x7x5 cm was removed, microscopic examination showed it was of the spindle cell type. The postoperative course was uneventful, but the patient never had a return of hemoglobin to the blood. The patient was discharged on the postoperative] 3 days. At postoperative 1 month, the patient was readmitted for bone marrow study and had no return of red cells to bone marrow. At now, patient has been treated with steroid and the further follow up study will be needed.
A clinical study on 139 cases of operated PDA was performed during period from Aug. 1982 to Apr. 1991 at the Dept. of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery of Chonbuk National University Hospital. The following results are obtained. 1. The 35 males and 104 females ranged in age from 6 months to 40 years. [mean 10.2 yrs. ] 2. Chief complaints of the patients were frequent URI in 50%, dyspnea on exertion in 31.2%, palpitation in 11.1%, and no subjective symptoms in 28.78% 3. On auscultation, continuous machinery murmur heard in 79.86% and systolic murmur in 20.14%. 4. Radiologic findings of chest P-A showed increased density of pulmonary vascularity in 80.58%, cardiomegaly in 61.87%, and within normal limit in 19.42% of the patients. 5. The signs of LVH[44.4%], RVH[17.4%], BVH[7.6%] were noted on the EKC. 6. Cardiac catheterizations were performed in 114 patients. The mean Qp/Qs was 2.65 and the mean Pp /Ps was 0.41 and the mean systolic pulmonary artery pressure was 46.6 mmHg. 7. Operative methods were as followed: The 130 cases[93.52%] of ligation and 3 cases[2.16%] of division & suture for PDA were performed through the left posterolateral thoracotomy. And the remained cases were managed under the cardiopulmonary bypass. 8. Operative complications were hoarseness in 8 cases, atelectasis in 6 cases, intraoperative ductal rupture under the left thoracotomy approach 2 cases, recannalization 1 case and others in 3 cases. 9. One patient died due to ductal rupture intraoperatively and the overall mortality was 0.7%.
A clinical analysis was performed n 706 uses of patent ductus arteriosus experienced at Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital during 27 years period from 1958 to 1984. Of the 706 patients of PDA, 244 patients were male and 462 patients were female and ages ranged from 2 months to 53 years old with the average age of 8.5 years. The chief complaints on admission were dyspnea on exertion and frequent URI in 58.9%, non specific symptoms such as palpitation and easy fatigability in 9.7%, symptoms of CHF in 2.0% and no subjective symptoms in 29.4%.
