We prospectively studied postoperative cardiac arrhythmia after open heart surgery to analyze the types and incidence of cardiac arrhythmia and to predict preoperative risk factors. And also we evaluated the effectiveness of atrial and ventricular epicardial electrodes which were placed during operation Between March 1990 and August 1990, We had operated on in 211 patients and we studied 201 consecutive patients excluding 10 patients. The study group included 99 males and 102 female patients, ages 1 month to 75 years[Mean$\pm$SD=28.0$\pm$21.7 years]. Postoperatively, all patients were regularly seen by the cardiac surgeon and cardiologist, They had continuous electrocardiographic monitoring for the first 3 days, initially in the intensive care unit and were checked routine electrocardiography on the postoperative 7 days, The postoperative cardiac arrhythmia were analyzed and possible associations of this arrhythmia with various pre, intra, and postoperative factors were studied by univariate and multivariate discriminant analysis, The overall incidence of postoperative cardiac arrhythmia except relative sinus bradycardia was 36.8%;[74/201], The incidence of postoperative cardiac arrhythmia in acyanotic congenital heart disease: 19.4%, cyanotic congenital heart disease: 20.8%, cardiac arrhythmia surgery: 33.3%, acquired valvular heart disease: 60.9% and coronary artery occlusive disease: 38.9%. Both univariate and multivariate studies indicated the pre operative symptom duration[p = 0013], the duration of medication[p=0.003], presence of preoperative arrhythmia[p<0.001] and pre-operative left atrial dimension in echocardiography to be the factor promoting postoperative cardiac arrhythmia. Multivariate discriminant analysis showed that the presence of preoperative cardiac arrhythmia, bypass time and the duration of preoperative symptom duration conveyed considerable risk factor on post-operative arrhythmia. The atrial wire electrodes were used diagnostically in 36 and were used therapeutically in 89 among 201 patients. Atrial pacing were used to treat relative sinus bradycardia, accelerated junctional tachycardia or premature atrial or ventricular contractions in 51 patients. Atrioventricular sequential pacing were used in 16 patients and ventricular pacing were used in 20 patients. Hemodynamics were evaluated in 2 patients of relative sinus bradycardia before and after atrial pacing. The atrial pacing increased the amount of cardiac output to 15% more. Because of their great utility in the diagnosis and treatment of arrhythmias, we conclude that routine placement of atrial and ventricular electrodes at the time of operation is indicated regardless of the nature of the open-heart procedure.

A case of a single coronary artery complicated with a coronary artery fistula (CAF) to the right ventricle is extremely rare, and its management strategy and prognosis are not clear. A 5-year-old boy was hospitalized for evaluation of a continuous heart murmur. Transthoracic echocardiography suggested a CAF to the right ventricle, with an enlarged left coronary artery. Cardiac catheterization confirmed the CAF terminating at the right ventricle and the absence of a right coronary artery. The fistula was ligated at the right ventricular side under cardiopulmonary bypass. At follow-up 18 months later, the child was clinically asymptomatic, and coronary angiogram showed no recurrence of the fistula.
Thirty-two patients with a cyanotic cardiac malformations having more complex intracardiac defects than ones in a tetralogy of Fallot underwent complete intracardiac repairs in a-full-year period from July 1981 to June 1982. Twenty-two patients [68.8%] died within 30 days after surgery: Transposition of the great arteries, seven of 10 patients; Double-outlet right ventricle, four of 6 patients; Tricuspid atresia, four of 6 patients; Single ventricle, all of 4 patients; Pulmonary atresia, two of 3 patients; Double-outlet left ventricle, none of 2 patients; and Truncus arteriosus, one of a single patient. All deaths occurred with a low cardiac output syndrome or a failed off-bypass, and they were almost always accompanied with other grave postoperative complications. The complex intracardiac anatomy itself was one of the risk factors by making a complete intracardiac repair of the defects difficult in a small heart. The reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow carried a difficulty in balancing an adequate relief of the obstruction with an avoidance of making too much pulmonary valvular insufficiency as well. On the other hand, the presence of an elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and a high pulmonary vascular resistance was also the factors affecting the postoperative surviv als. The importance of detailed knowledge of intracardiac anatomy and hemodynamics from the careful preoperative evaluation of the patient was discussed along with the necessity of technical refinement of the correction.
A fibroma arising in the right ventricle outflow tract of a 14 month-old infant was successfully removed. The patient was first seen because of shortness of breath and tachycardia. Pertinent clinical and laboratory findings included a grade II/VI systolic murmur, blood pressure of 120/60 mmHg, slight cardiomegaly on chest X-ray, a mass obstructing the outflow tract of the right ventricle on echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging. On october 30,1992, under cardiopulmonary bypass, a 4cm x 3cm x 3cm tumor was resected from the right ventricular outflow tract, together with a portion of the ventricular wall. Histologically, it was diagnosis as a fibroma. The patient was sent home on the 6th postoperative day following an uneventful recovery form the operation. Although cardiac fibroma is the second most common cardiac tumor in infancy and childhood, it is usually found in the left ventricle and one arising in the right ventricle is considered rare. Although it is a benign tumor, it could produce a severe cardiac dysfunction and even sudden death, depending on its size and location. With the advance in diagnostic techniques and operative management, there is a renewed interest in the early detection and operative removal of these tumors. The case herein presented is the first such case successfully managed and reported in the Korean literature.
We reviewed our experiences on 33 patients who underwent a bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt[BCPS from February 1992 to July 1994. There were 19 male an 14 female patients, and their weight ranged from 4.4 to 13.3 Kg[mean weight 8.4 $\pm$2.9 Kg . The age ranged from 2 to 55 months [mean age 16.7 $\pm$15.5 months . Their diagnosis included single ventricle group in 16, unbalanced ventricles in 8 whose associated anomalies were double outlet right ventricle, transposition of great arteries and total anomalous pulmonary venous return, tricuspid atresia in 7, hypoplastic left heart syndrome in 1 who underwent a Norwood procedure and double outlet right ventricle with pulmonic stenosis and tricuspid stenosis in 1 who underwent biventricular repair. Among them 10 patients had received other palliative operation before [Norwood procedure 1, pulmonary artery banding 3, modified Blalock-Taussig shunt 6 . The BCPS operations were performed under the cardiopulmonary bypass. 16 patients underwent unilateral BCPS and 17 patients who had bilateral SVC underwent bilateral BCPS. Three patients whose associated anomalies were interruption of IVC underwent total cavopulmonary shunt. There were 5 operative deaths [mortality rate 15.1 % and 2 late deaths. The risk factor for the operation was high mean pulmonary artery pressure [p value<0.05 . The survivors showed good postoperative course and their postoperative oxygen saturation was increased significantly compared to that of preoperative status[p value<0.05 .Conclusively, BCPS operation is effective and safe palliative procedure for the many cyanotic complex congenital anomalies with decreased pulmonary blood flow especialy for the patients who have the high risk factors for Fontan operations.
Aorticopulmonary window is a rare anomaly among congenital heart disease. Various terms have been suggested including A-P window, A-P fenestration, fistula, aorticseptal defect etc. The defect lies usually between the left side of the ascending aorta and right wall of the pulmonary artery just anterior to the origin of the right main pulmonary artery. We have experienced one case of aorticopulmonary septal defect which was diagnosed as V5D with pulmonary hypertension in 1 4/12 year old, 7.2 Kg, male patient. Operation was done under the hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass using 5t. Thomas cardioplegic solution. Vertical right ventriculotomy over the anterior wall of RVOT revealed no defect in the ventricular septum, and incision was extended up to the main pulmonary artery to find the source of massive regurgitation of blood through MPA. Finger tip compression of the aorticopulmanary window was replaced with Foley bag catheter balloon, and the $7{\times}10$ mm aorticoseptal defect located 15mm above the pulmonic valve was sutured continuously wih 3-0 nylon suture during azygos flow of cardiopulmonary cannula which was located distal to the window resulted massive air pumping systemically, and temporary reversal of pumping was tried to minimize cerebral air embolism. Remained procedure was done as usual, and pump off was smooth and uneventful. Postoperatively, patient was attacked frequent opistotonic seizure with no recovery sign mentally and p.hysically. Vital signs were gradually worsen with peripheral cyanosis and oliguria, and cardiac activity was arrested 1485 minutes after operation. Autopsy was performed to find the sutured window and massive edema of the brain.
Cor triatriatum is a rare anomaly in old age. This is a case report of a 66 year-old man who had been preoperatively diagnosed as coronary artery disease and cor triatriatum. The operative findings revealed that the left atrium had an intra-atrial septum with one small opening 10mm in diameter, the upper compartment received both pulmonary veins, and there were no other anomalies like anormalous pulmonary venous connection or atrial septal defect. The patient successfully underwent open heart surgery ; the anomalous septum was resected, the mitral valve was reconstructed using French technique with Carpentier-Edwards ring, and coronary artery bypass grafting was performed.
Purpose : The objective of this study was to assess ventricular function by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) who have been undergoing open heart surgery (OHS) using cardiopulmonary bypass. We tried to compare the parameters of tissue Doppler imaging before and after OHS in patients with congenital heart disease. Methods : This study was conducted on 32 patients with CHD after OHS from January 2005 to December 2005 at Kyungpook National University hospital. Patients who underwent 2-D echocardiography before and after their OHS. All patients were divided into three groups, left ventricular volume overloading group (group 1), and right ventricular volume overloading group (group 2), and right ventricular pressure overloading group (group 3). The TDIs were examined before and 1 to 3 months after OHS. Peak early diastolic (E), and peak late diastolic (A) velocity of transmitral flow were measured by pulsed wave Doppler examination. Peak systolic (Sm), peak early diastolic (Em), and peak late diastolic (Am) velocity in apical 4-chamber and 2-chamber views were measured by TDI. The author calculated E/Em ratio. Results : The patients were 14 boys and 18 girls and the average age of patients was 2 years and 3 months. The congenital heart diseases which have to get OHS were ventricular septal defect (13 cases), atrial septal defect (7), atrioventricular septal defect (3), isolated pulmonary stenosis (2) and tetralogy of Fallot (7). There were significant decrease of Sm, Em, Am measured on tricuspid annulus and E/Em measured on mitral annulus in apical 4 chamber view (P<0.05). Conclusion : This study showed significant decrease of Sm, Em, Am measured on tricuspid annulus and E/Em measured on mitral annulus in apical 4 chamber view after OHS. These changes might be due to the effects of cardiopulmonary bypass in OHS and/or hemodynamic changes after correction of congenital heart disease. To clarify these changes, further study on more patients is needed.
Background: The aims of this study are to verify the result of the surgical treatment of ALCAPA and to identify the postoperative changes of left ventricular dimensions and mitral regurgitation (MR), Material and Method: Fifteen patients operated on since 1985 were included in the study. The patients operated on before 1998 (n=9) showed heterogeneous properties with various surgical strategies and cardiopulmonary bypass techniques. However, six patients were operated on with the established surgical strategy since 1998; 1) Dual perfusion and dual cardioplegic solution delivery through ascending aorta and main pulmonary artery, 2) Coronary transfer by rolled-conduit made of pulmonary artery wall flap, and 3) Additional mitral valvular procedure was not peformed. Result: Median age of the study group was 6 months (1 month to 34 years). The operative methods were left subclavian artery to left coronary artery anastomosis in 1, simple ligation in 2, Takeuchi operation in 2, and coronary reimplantation in 10 patients. The mean follow up period was 5.5<5.8 years (2 months 14 years), There were one early death (6.7%) and one late death. Overall 5-year survival rate was 85.6$\pm$9.6%. The Z-value of left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic dimensions were 6.4$\pm$3.0 and 5.1 $\pm$3.6 preoperatively, and decreased to 1.7$\pm$ 1.9 and 0.8$\pm$ 1.6 in 3 months (p<0.05). Significant preoperative MR was identified in 6 patients (40%) and all the patients showed immediate improvement of MR within f month postoperatively. There were 3 cases of reoperation due to coronary anastomosis site stenosis and recurrence of MR. However, there was no mortality nor late reoperation in the patients operated on after 1998. Conclusion: The surgical treatment of ALCAPA showed favorable survival and early recovery of ventricular dimensions and mitral valvular function. Although long-term reintervention was required in some cases of earlier period, all the cases after 1998 showed excellent surgical outcome without long-term problem.

Purpose: Thoracic aortic injury is a life-threatening injury that has been traditionally treated by using surgical management. Recently, thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has been conducted pervasively as a better alternative treatment method. Therefore, this study will focus on analyzing the outcome of TEVAR in patients suffering from a blunt thoracic aortic injury. Methods: Of the blunt thoracic aortic injury patients admitted to Eulji University Hospital, this research focused on the 11 patients who had received TEVAR during the period from January 2008 to April 2014. Results: Seven of the 11 patients were male. At the time of admission, the mean systolic pressure was $105.64{\pm}24.60mm\;Hg$, and the mean heart rate was $103.64{\pm}20.02per$ minute. The median interval from arrival to repair was 7 (4, 47) hours. The mean stay in the ICU was $21.82{\pm}16.37hours$. In three patients, a chimney graft technique was also performed to save the left subclavian artery. In one patient, a debranching of the aortic arch vessels was performed. In two patients, the left subclavian artery was totally covered. In one patient whose proximal aortic neck length was insufficient, the landing zone was extended by using a prophylactic left subclavian artery to left common carotid artery bypass before TEVAR. There were no operative mortalities, but a patient who was covered of left subclavian artery died from ischemic brain injury. Complications such as migration, endovascular leakage, collapse, infection and thrombus did not occur. Conclusion: Our short-term outcomes of TEVAR for blunt thoracic aorta injury was feasible. Left subclavian artery may be sacrificed if the proximal landing zone is short, but several methods to continue the perfusion should be considered.
