Traumatic pseudoaneurysms in the head and neck region are very rare. Particularyly, pseudoaneurysms of the internal maxillary artery are known to be very rare. The authors report a 20-year old male who was diagnosed as having a pseudoaneurysm of the internal maxillary artery. The cause was assumed to be a mandible ramus fracture. When he visited our emergency room, we did not consider a pseudoaneurysm because of his other life-threatening conditions. Fortunately, he re-visited our hosipital before the aneurysm ruptured. He was diagnosed with angiography and was treated by using embolization with glue. The rupture of the pseudoaneurysm could have caused a life-threatening hemorrhage.

Traumatic arteriovenous fistula is relatively uncommon. The proper designation for what is called a false aneurysm is pulsating hematoma, which occurs when there is a small laceration of the wall of a large artery will continuing leakage of blood from the artery into surrounding tissues. The extent of growth of the pulsating hematoma depends on the strength of the surrounding fascial tissues. We experienced one case of arteriovenous fistula with hematoma, due to operative injuries, and operated successfully, and report the case.

Bentall`s operation for repair of annuloaortic ectasia has been associated with postoperative bleeding and with false aneurysm of the anastomotic site between the coronary orifice and composite graft.Among 5 cases, 2 cases have been operated direct anastomosis between coronary artery and vascular graft.Remained 3 cases have been operated with doughnutlike Teflon felt buttress.The technique of sandwiching the freed button of aortic wall bearing the coronary artery ostium between an outer Teflon felt doughnutlike buttress and the inner composite graft provides a leak-proof anastomosis.We experienced one case reoperation for bleeding at coronary anastomotic site above method.

심근경색 후 좌심실류의 약 88% 이상이 전벽경색에 의한 것이고 나머지는 하벽경색에 의한 것으로 후벽에 발생하는 좌심실류는 특히 드물다. 본원에서는 심근경색 후 좌심실 후기저부에 생긴 진성 좌심실류와 가성 좌심실류 2예에서 수술적 교정을 시행하였기에 증례 보고하는 바이다.

Aneurysm-mimicking findings were frequently visualized due to hemodynamical causes of dephasing effects around area of A-com artery during magnetic resonance angiography(MRA) and these kind of phenomena have not been clearly known yet. We investigated the hemodynamical patterns of dephasing effect around area of the A-com artery that might be a cause of false intracranial aneurysms on MRA. For experimental study, We used hand-made silicon phantoms of the asymmetric A-com artery as like a bifurcation configuration. In a closed circulatory system with UHDC computer driven cardiac pump system. MRA and fast digital subfraction angiography(DSA) involved the use of these phantoms. Flow patterns were evaluated with axial and coronal imaging of MRA(2D-TOF, 3D-TOF) and DSA of Phantoms constructed from an automated closed-type circulatory system filled with glycerol solution [circulation fluid(glycerol:water = 1:1.4)]. These findings were then compared with those obtained from computational fluid dynamic(CFD) for inter-experimental correlation study. Imaging findings of MRA, DSA and CFD on inflow zone according to the following: a) MRA demonstrated high signal intensity zone as inflow zone on silicon phantom; b) Patterns of DSA were well matched with MRA on trajectory of inflow zone; and c) CFD were well matched with MRA on the pattern of main flow. Imaging findings of MRA. DSA and CFD on turbulent flow zone according to the following: a) MRA demonstrated hyposignal intensity zone at shoulder and axillar zone of main inflow; b) DSA delineated prominent vortex flow at the same area. The hemodynamical causes of signal defect, which could Induce the false aneurysm on MRA, turned out to be dephasing effects at axilla area of bifurcation from turbulent flow as the results of MRA, DSA and CFD.

목적: 자기공명혈관조영술(magnetic resonance angiography: MRA)을 이용하여 뇌동맥류를 비침습적 방법으로 진단하고자 하는 시도가 있었지만 크기가 3mm 이하인 경우 진단에 애로가 많았다. 뇌동맥류의 진단에 있어 최근 개발된 고해상도, 고속의 slice interpolation 자기 공명혈관조영술과 디지탈 감산 혈관조영술(digital subtraction angiography: DSA)의 결과를 전향적으로 비교하여 보편적인 선별 검사법으로 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 총 19명의 환자에서 26개의 뇌동맥류를 대상으로 하였다. 모두 자기공명혈관조영술을 먼저 촬영하여 기원혈관, 동맥류경부의 확인, 인근 작은 혈관과의 연관관계등을 확인한 후 디지탈 감산 혈관조영술을 시행하여 비교하였다. 영상은 1.5T 초전도형기계(Vision, Siemens, erlangen, Germany)를 이용하여 slice interpolation 을 이용한 자기공명혈관조영술로 촬영하였다. 촬영은 TR / TE / FA = 30 / 6.4 / 25, matrix $512{\times}160$, 관찰면 $200{\times}150$, 촬영시간 7분 42초, 유효 두께 0.7mm, 총 두께가 102.2mm로 하여 대공(foramen magnum)에서 전뇌동맥(anterior cerebral artery)의 A3 부위까지 충분히 포함되도록 하였다. 영상분석은 최대강도투사(maximum intensity projection: MIP)를 사용하였으며 두개강내 동맥류가 있는 경우 다면재구성(multiplanar reconstruction: MPR) 기법을 사용하였다. 결과: 19명의 환자중 2명이 3개, 3명이 2개, 나머지 14명이 각각 1개씩의 두개강내 동맥류를 가져 모두 26개 였으며 파열된 동맥류가 14개였고 파열되지 않은 동맥류가 12 개이었다. 크기가 2mm 이하가 8개, 3-5mm가 9개, 6-9mm가 7개이며 10mm이상이 2개가 있었다. 처음 검사에서 자기공명혈관조영술과 디지탈 감산 혈관조영술에서 23개의 동맥류중 내경동맥에 1mm 크기의 동맥류 1개를 제외한 25개를 각각 발견할 수 있어 96%의 예민도를 보였으나 진음성과 위음성은 없어 특이도를 측정할 수 없었다. 크기와 모양을 확인하는데 자기공명혈과조영술과 다면재구성을 동시에 사용한 경우 디지탈 감산 혈관조영술과 같은 성적을 보인 반면 동맥류 경부와 기원혈관을 확인하는데도 자기공명혈관조영술의 다면재구성을 동시에 사용한 경우가 자기공명혈관조영술 또는 디지탈 감산 혈관조영술만 사용한 경우 보다 월등히 좋았다. 결론: Slice interpolation 기법을 이용한 고해상 자기공명혈관조영술은 두개강내 동맥류를 검사하는데 디지탈 감산 혈관조영술과 동일한 성적을 보여 앞으로 비침습적 일차 선별 검사법으로 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

We report the case of a patient with a chronic DeBakey type IIIb aneurysm who underwent thoracic endovascular aortic repair to seal the primary entry tear and stent-graft insertion to cover the re-entry tear at the renal artery. The procedure was performed in order to achieve complete thrombosis in the entire thoracoabdominal false lumen, leading to favorable aortic remodeling. Simultaneously, ethanol ablation and renal artery embolization were performed to treat a renal tumor suspicious of renal cell carcinoma. Radical nephrectomy then confirmed clear cell carcinoma. To the best of our knowledge, no other cases of this type have been reported in the Korean literature.

During the period from Mar. 1983 to Feb. 1986, 22 patients with vascular trauma were treated at Capital Armed General Hospital. 1] 11 patients had arterial injury alone, 6 patients had venous injury alone, and 5 patients had both arterial and venous injuries. 2] The mechanism of injury in these 22 patients was 7 penetrating non-gun shot wounds, 5 blast fragments injuries, 4 iatrogenic injuries, 4 blunt injuries, 2 gun shot wounds. 3] The method of 16 arterial repair was 5 autogenous saphenous vein graft, 8 synthetic vascular graft, 1 end to end anastomosis, 2 lateral suture. Midterm patency of 16 repairs was 100% within 1 months. 4] The method of 11 venous repair was 1 autogenous saphenous vein graft, 2 onlay vein patch, 2 ligation, 1 lateral suture. The thrombotic obstructions occurred in 4 repairs [36.4%], but they were resolved somewhat with heparinization. 5] Uncommon cases of false aneurysm of internal carotid artery and laceration of retrohepatic inferior vena cava were summarized.

Pseudoaneurysm of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) has been reported as a rare complication of RVOT reconstruction performed using conduit replacement or patch repair. Rarely, it may present alongside symptoms secondary to the compression of adjoining mediastinal structures. We report the case of a patient who developed a symptomatic RVOT pseudoaneurysm one month after a total correction of tetralogy of Fallot. In the present case, superior vena cava syndrome was caused by compression of the superior vena cava, which was a very unusual presentation.
