좌관상 동맥동에서 발생하여 좌심실로 파열된 발살바동 동맥류에 기인한 울혈성 심부전을 주소로 내원한 48세 남자 환자의 수술적 체험 1례를 보고 하고자 한다. 술 전 심 초 싣캥\ulcorner좌 관상동맥동에서 시작하여 좌 심실에 이르는 머리핀 모양의 낭(sac)이 관찰 되는 발살바동 동맥류의 파열이 관찰되었고, 대동맥 좌심실 터 널(aorto-left ventricle tunnel)을 감별 진단에 범주에 두었다. 수술 소견상 좌 관상동맥동에서 시작하여 좌심실 내의 승모판 전엽 하방에 여러개의 누공을 보이는 직경 7mm, 길이 20mm의 동맥류가 관찰되었다. 수술은 파 열동맥류의 대동맥측 근위부는 우심낭으로 첨포봉합 하였고, 좌심실내의 원위부는 spaghetti를 이용해 직접 봉합하였다. 환자는 술 후 14일째 퇴원하였고, 술 후 8개월 동안 별다른 문제없이 외래 추적 관찰 중이다. 이에 저자들은 본 질환의 희귀성과 함께 수술적 방법을 알리고자 증례 보고 하는 바이다.

Most patients having annuloaortic ectasia are associated with marked dilatation of the sinuses of Valsalva and the aortic annulus as well as the huge aneurysm of the ascending aorta. A 19 year old male patient complaining of tightness on left posterior chest wall underwent cardiac angiography in which demonstrated annuloaortic ectasia with ascending aortic aneurysm and aortic insufficiency. The patient had corrective operation replacing the ascending aorta and aortic valve with a composite graft[Dacron prosthesis containing a Bjork-Shiley aortic valve] within the aneurysmal sac. The coronary orifices were anastomosed to the tubular Dacron prosthesis [30 mm in diameter] by means of a second smaller Gore-Tex tube [8mm in diameter]. The aneurysmal sac was trimmed by removing the redundant wall and then wrapped outer wall of the Dacron prosthesis. Postoperatively, mediastinal bleeding was temporarily observed in the operative day and satisfactory blood pressure was maintained with small dose of dopamine. One week later, large amount of serous effusion was drained out of the retrosternal space making partial disruption of the skin which was healed well by daily local dressing. The patient discharged in good condition on postoperative 29th day with no residual complications and is doing very well on the 4 months follow-up.

We experienced a case of ruptured aneurysm of the sinus of Valsalva, and this resulted in simultaneous aortic and tricuspid valve endocarditis through a shunt. The echocardiography showed a ruptured sinus of Valsalva aneurysm to the right atrium with a shunt. The aortic non-coronary cusp was fibro-thickened with vegetation. Vegetations of the septal leaflet and the anterior leaflet of the tricuspid valve were also found. The blood culture grew Enterococcus garllinarum. We replaced both tricuspid and aortic valve with successful surgical result.

Seventeen patients underwent operations for aneurysm of ascending aorta with aortic regurgitation from August 1979 to October 1985. 10 patients underwent complete replacement of the ascending aorta and the aortic valve with a composite graft and implantation of coronary ostia on the graft. Seven patients underwent supracoronary noncomposite graft replacement and aortic valve replacement. The patients ranged in age from 25 to 55 years [mean 37.6 years]. There were 11 male and 6 female patients. All patients had aortic incompetence and aneurysmal dilatation of the ascending aorta. Seven of the patients has concomitant aortic dissection in ascending aorta and one had dissection in abdominal aorta. Eight patients had signs of Marfan syndrome and the other 3 patients had cystic degeneration in the medial layer of the aorta. There was one hospital death[5.8%]. He died of sepsis on the 23rd postoperative day. All survivors showed improvement in NYHA functional classification in the 34.9 patient-year follow-up period.

Over the past 11 years, from Jan. 1975 through Nov. 1985, 27 consecutive patients with congenital aneurysms of sinus of Valsalva underwent corrective surgery in our department of Thoracic Surgery. 26 were suggested to arise from right coronary sinus and 1 from noncoronary sinus: among 26, 18 ruptured into right ventricle, 1 into right atrium, 1 into pulmonary artery. And 1 from noncoronary sinus into right atrium. Among 18 cases of preoperatively diagnosed as ruptured aneurysm, the fistula was repaired through the aorta in 12, although the chamber of termination was also opened in some. Recurrent fistula occurred in 2 cases in which the ruptured aneurysm was repaired through right ventricle. It appears that repair of the fistula itself is best carried out through an aortotomy, after cross-clamping.

1983년 3월부터 1994년 6월까지 22명의 환자에게 관상동맥 우회로 조성수술과 병행한 개심수술을 시행하였다. 대상환자들의 연령은 42세에서 72세 사이로 평균 60.4$\pm$8.2세였다. 이중 17명의 환자가 남자였고, 여자환자는 5명이 었다. 좌심실 박출계수는 25%에서 65% 사이로 평균 46.9 $\pm$ 14.2%였다. 22명의 대상환자중 9명이 심근경색증의 합병증으로 발생한 기계적인 장애를 동반하고 있었으며, 이중 5명은 좌심실류, 3명은 심실중격 결손 그리고 1명은 유두근 파열에 의한승모판 폐쇄부전증이 롱반되었다. 나머지 대상환자중 9명은 류마티스성 판막질환(대동맥판막 질환 7명, 승모판막 질환 2명)을 동반하였고, 2명은 좌심방혈전, 1명은 심방중격 결손 그리고 1명은 상행대동맥류를 동반하였다. 관상동맥 이식 편수는 1개에서 4개 사이로 평균 2.1$\pm$1.0개였다 수술후 합병증은 3명에서 발생하였으며, 이중 2명은 수술전후 심근경색증, 1명은 하지의 창상감염이었다. 수술사망은 1명에서 발생하였으며, 사망원인은 수술전후 심근경색증에 의한 저심박출량에 기인하였다. 추적조사 기간은 3개월에서 136개월 사이로 평균 41.1$\pm$ 40.2개월이었으며, 이기간 동안 1명\ulcorner 사망하였다. 사망원인은 뇌출혈이었다. 장기생존한 20명의 New York Heart Association functional class는 모두 I과 II였다. 비록 대상환자의 수가 적다고는 하지만 저자들의 수술결과는 양호한 것으로, 따라서 저자들은 관상동맥 우회로 조성수술을 병행한 개심수술이 수술위험도가 높지 않으면서 만기 사망율도 줄일 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

During 42 month period 91 consecutive patient underwent coronary artery bypass surgery. The mean age of these patient was 57 years [range from 28 to 78 years . There were 57 men and 34 women. The preoperative risk factors that include beyond the 50 % of total patients were male sex, obesity, hypo-high-density lipoproteinemia, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, hyper-low-density lipoproteinemia, hypertriglyceridemia and hypertension. Preoperatively 27 patients had stable angina pectoris and 39 patients of unstable angina pectoris. Twenty five patients had previous myocardial infarction history. The patterns of disease were 8 patients of single vessel involvement, 18 patients of double vessel involvement, 54 patients of triple vessel involvement and 11 patients of left main coronary artery disease. Fifty five patients were in Canadian Cardiovascular Society functional class III. Myocardial revascularization was performed under emergency conditions in 5 patients. Nine percent of patients had previous PTCA history. We performed 16 cases of sequential anastomosis, internal mammary artery harvest in 86 percent of total patients and total 284 distal anastomoses[mean 3.1 anastomosis per patient . The mean ACC time was 60.5 minutes and ECC time was mean 110 minutes. The combined surgeries were 16 cases of endarterectomy, 2 cases of LV aneurysmectomy, 1 case of Bentall operation, 1 case of repair of sinus of Valsalva, 1 case of ligation of coronary AV fistula and 1 case of excision of breast mass. The most common complication was wound infection[12 cases, 13 % . There was one hospital death due to postoperative respiratory failure and low output syndrome in patient with postinfarction VSD, LV aneurysm. Postoperative 88 patients were in Functional class I or II. The 99mTc-MIBI myocardial perfusion scan that used as evaluation of postoperative state was well correlated with patient`s symptoms instead of some disadvantages.

A case of Annuloaortic Ectasia associated with Marfan syndrome and mitral regurgitation is treated surgically by Bentall`s method and mitral annuloplasty. The Annuloaortic Ectasia is frequently accompanied with Marfan syndrome, its definition is simply explained as the following; the marked dilatation of the sinuses of Valsalva and the aortic annulus as well as the huge aneurysm of the ascending aorta. As the operative finding, the intimal tearing was shown as circular and the both coronary ostia were changed the position into high up. The patient was taken a corrective operation replacing the ascending aorta and aortic valve with a composite graft[St. Jude medical valve 29mm, woven Dacron tubular graft 31mm]. The both coronary ostia were reimplanted on the graft with 4-0 prolene by continuous suture. Mitral annuloplasty was performed. After the operation, the patient developed both spontaneous pneumothorax, he improved state by the closed thoracostomy. He has been doing well, postoperatively.

A 40-year-old male patient who had ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm Involving right coronary artery obstruction and thoracic descending aortic pseudoaneurysm was successfully managed by two-stage operation. Repair of intimal tear of ascending aortic pseudoaneurysm with a patch of woven dacron vascular graft and right coronary artery bypass graft with great saphenous vein were performed in first stage operation. On 28 days postoperatively, Repair of intimal tear of descending aortic pseudoaneurysm with a patch of woven dacron vascular graft was done under the femorofemoral partial cardiopulri!onary bypass in second stage operation. The patient was discharged at postoperative 13th days without any evident.
