Congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula is uncommon disease, and was first described by Krause in 1865. About 20% of the cases, it associates additional congenital heart diseases. A 5-year-old female patient was diagnosed as coronary AV fistula with VSD, and was taken surgical correction under cardiopulmonary bypass. VSD was small and subarterial in type, and the fistula was dilated as adult thumb tip size at its distal portion. VSD was closed directly through the pulmonary arteriotomy and the aneurysmal dilation was opened vertically, then it was obliterated using 5-0, 6-0 prolene continuous suture fashioning into a long slender tube. Postoperative course was uneventful.

Since the first report of an operation for prolapsed intervertebral disk by Mixter and Barr[1934], many thousands of operations have been successfully performed without incident. Linton and White in 1945 reported the vascular complication, but perforation of large vessels is rare complication of operation for prolapsed disk. A medical student, aged 22 years, was performed to a disk operation [L4-5, Rt. on May 1977.] From postoperative 10th day, palpitation, generalized edema and substernal pain were noted, and 2 months later, wide pulse pressure [70-80 mmHg], continuous bruit and thrill on the Rt. low abdomen were followed. Aortography revealed arteriovenous fistula between just proximal to abdominal aortic bifurcation and inferior vena cava. So, fistulectomy [Resection of proximal 2 cm of C.I.A., Rt, including fistula opening and end to end anastomosis] was performed on July, 77. During follow up study, remained fistula between Rt. internal lilac artery and lilac vein was found 2 months later. Re-operation [Double ligation of the Rt. internal lilac artery] was don on January 1978. Postop. results were excellent, except impossible to ejaculation.

Congenital coronary arteriovenous fistula is relatively uncommon, but with widespread use of cardiac catheterization, angiography and selective coronary arteriography are being recognized with increasing frequency. Recently we experienced one case of congenital coronary artery fistula which originated from the right coronary artery. The case was 25 year-old-male, who complained of dyspnea on exertion and continuous murmur was heard, and diagnosed as right coronary artery fistula by the cardiac catheterization and aortography. On the operation field, the right coronary artery was markedly dilated from aorta to the middle segment at acute margin of the right ventricle, which the hen-egg sized aneurysm was noticed. The dilated coronary ostium and fistular site were obliterated with several horizontal mattress sutures. And the dilated tortuous right coronary artery with aneurysm was excised. Postoperative course was uneventful and discharged without problem.

We experienced one case of surgical treatment of A-V fistula between the right common iliac artery and the right common iliac vein after lumbar laminectomy. The average vascular surgeon does not have extensive experience with this disorder owing to its rarity. Arteriovenous fistula of the aorta and its major branches present an unparalleled challenge in patient care. Because of their central location, blood flow through these fistulas may be massive;the associated complications are usually dramatic, resulting in severe refractory congestive heart failure, massive venous hypertension, or extensive hemorrhage during an illfated surgical repair.For this reason, it behooves one to become well acquainted with the problem in order to avoid morbid complications and thus ensure optimal patient care.

배경: 혈액투석을 하는 만성신부전 환자는 반복된 혈관천자로 인해 정맥의 보존상태가 좋지 않아서 동정맥루 조성술이 어려운 경우가 많다. 이에 저자는 혈관천자 등으로부터 보호된 상완동맥 주위의 동반정맥(vena comitantes)을 정맥측 문합으로 이용하여 인조혈관 동정맥루 조성술을 시행하였고 이의 개존율, 합병증 등을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2006년 1월부터 2008년 5월까지 전주주름 부위의 표재정맥의 보존상태가 불량하여 심부정맥인 동반정맥을 정맥 유출로로 이용하여 수술한 12예의 인조혈관 동정맥루 환자를 대상으로 임상분석을 시행하였다. 동맥측 문합은 상완동맥에 단측문합하였으며 루프형태로 수술하였다. 대상환자의 남녀비는 7 : 5이고 평균연령을 $59{\pm}17$세이며 당뇨병을 동반한 경우가 6예, 고혈압을 동반한 경우가 10예였다. 결과: 수술 후 감염이나 출혈 등의 합병증은 없었고 5명의 환자에서 술 후 평균 3개월에 협착의 소견을 보였다. 3, 6, 12개월의 일차 개통율은 각각 75.0%, 65.6%, 52.5%였다. 협착이 있었던 환자들도 중재적 시술 후 혈류가 개선되어 현재까지 혈액투석이 가능하였고 12개월의 이차 개통율은 100%였다. 결론: 인조혈관을 이용한 동정맥루 조성술시 정맥천자 등에 의해 손상되지 않은 동반정맥을 이용하여 정맥문합 하면 비교적 양호한 개통율을 보이므로 표재정맥이 적당치 않은 경우 대체혈관으로 사용해도 무방할 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: To determine the effects of 10 % lidocaine spray and aroma hand massage on pain, anxiety, blood pressure, and pulse during arteriovenous (AV) fistula needling in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods: This study used a quasi-experimental design. Forty HD patients were assigned to either 10 % lidocaine spray group (n=21) or aroma massage group (n=19). 10 % lidocaine was sprayed 3 times around AV fistula 10 minutes before. Aroma hand massage was performed for 5 minutes with fluids containing 2 % of lavender, peppermint, and geranium concentrate mixture. Pain, anxiety, blood pressure, and pulse were measured during AV fistula needling without any intervention on the first week and during interventions on the second week. Data were analyzed with ${\chi}^2$ test, Fisher's exact test, t-test, paired t-test and MANCOVA. Results: Pain and anxiety were significantly decreased in both the lidocaine spray group and aroma massage group. Aroma hand massage was more effective to reduce pulse during AV fistula needling. Conclusion: The results suggest that 10% lidocaine spray and aroma hand massage may be effective to reduce pain, anxiety, and pulse during AV fistula needling in HD patients.

폐동정맥루를 보이는 환자의 40~60%에서 유전성 출혈성모세혈관확장증이 동반되어 나타나고, 유전성 출혈성 모세혈관 확장증 환자의 약 15% 정도에서 폐동정맥루가 관찰되므로 폐동정맥루 환자에서는 가족력에 대한 조사가 필요하다. 국내에서 폐동정맥루에 대한 보고는 상당수 있어 왔으나 가족력의 동반을 보고한 예는 없었다. 저자들은 객혈을 주소로 입원하여 폐동정맥루로 진단받고 wire coil spring을 이용하여 색전술을 시행한 23세 여자 환자 1예와 그 가족력을 소개하여 보고하는 바이다.

Nontraumatic intracranial subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) attributable to the thoracolumbar dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) has been extremely rare. A 41-year-old male patient was admitted with severe acute headache, neck stiffness, and pronounced low-back pain radiating to both legs. The T2-weighted MR imaging showed irregular signal void and enlarged, varix like pouch formation with spinal cord compression at the T11-12 level. The angiogram revealed a DAVF. We report a DAVF case with SAH that revealed an extensive infarction from C5 to the conus medullaris after undergoing operative treatment.

Dural arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is very rare, acquired lesion that may present with intracranial hemorrhage or neurological deficits. The etiology is not completely understood but dural AVF often has been associated with thrombosis of the involved dural sinuses. To our knowledge, this is the first well documented intracranial hemorrhage case caused by dural AVF following microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm. A 49-year-old male patient had left microvascular decompression of anterior inferior cerebellar artery via retrosigmoid suboccipital craniotomy. The patient was in good condition without any residual spasm or surgery-related complications. However, after 10 months, he suffered sudden onset of amnesia and dysarthria. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed the presence of dural AVF around the left transverse-sigmoid sinus. The dural AVF was treated with Onyx$^{(R)}$ (ev3) embolization. At the one-year follow up visit, there were no evidence of recurrence and morbidity related to dural AVF and its treatment. This case confirms that the acquired etiology of dural AVF may be associated with retrosigmoid suboccipital craniotomy for hemifacial spasm, even though it is an extremely consequence of this procedure.

Radio-cephalic arteriovenous fistula(RC-AVF) is the most recommended operation of achieving access for hemodialysis. However, it has high rates of early failure depending on the many haemodynamic conditions. To increase RC-AVF patency rate, many researches were performed by in-vitro experiment via artificial vessel and blood analogue fluid, and there were conflicting opinions about whether the non-Newtonian properties of blood have an influence on the flow in large arteries. To investigate the influence of viscoelasticity of blood within the RC-AVF, we fabricated three dimensional artificial RC-AVF and two kinds of blood analogue fluid. The velocity field of two fluids within the vessel were measured by micro-particle velocimetry(m-PIV) and compared with each other. The velocity profiles of both fluids for systolic phase were matched well while those for diastolic phase did not correspond. Therefore, it is desired to use non-newtonian fluid for in-vitro experiment of RC-AVF.
