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.

단심실성 심장기형의 교정방법으로 Fontan 수술이 행해지지만 이 수술의 위험요소를 가진 대상군에서는 고식적 수술을 시행한 후 단계적으로 Fontan 수술을 시행하는 것이 보편적이다. Fontan 수술의 시기는 고식적 수술 후 감소한 수술 위험요소와 고식적 수슬상태의 지속에 의하여 증가하는 위험 요소를 재평가한 후 결정되며, 고식술 후 비교적 조기에 시행되는 것이 보통이다. 국립의료원에서는 36세 성인 단심실증 환자에서 과거에 단방향성 Glenn 수술을 시행하고 17년 후에 완전 Fontan 수술로 전환한 증례가 있어 보고하고자 한다.

Eighteen infants with a large ventricular septal defect[VSD] underwent primary surgical repair from January 1986 to December 1992. Operation was done because of failure to thrive, medically intractable heart failure, recurrent pneumonia, increased pulmonary vascular resistance[PVR]. Four patients[22.2%] died in the early postoperative period. Relief of heart failure and normalization of growth and weight gain was evident in all survivor. There was no late postoperative death. The results of primary surgical repair of VSD in infancy are compared with those of palliative pulmonary artery banding[PAB] and of VSD closure after PAB. Twenty-seven patients with isolated VSD or with VSD associated with atrial septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, or coarctation of the aorta underwent initial palliative PAB. There were 3 early postoperative deaths[11.1%]. Severe elevation of PVR persisted in two patients. Closure of VSD and pulmonary artery debanding was done in twenty patients, with 2 early postoperative deaths[10.0%]. Placement of the PAB too close to the pulmonary annulus necessitated trasannular patching in one patient, but any problem caused by migration of the band was not developed. It is concluded that primary surgical repair of VSD in infancy is reasonable and that PAB is indicated only for those patients less than 6 months old with a complicated defect or in an emergency situation.

The emergence and expansion of cardiac surgery over the past decade has resulted in an increasing number of patients undergoing cardiac operations but many kinds of heart surgery was realized only palliative, resulting in increasing numbers of secondary cardiac procedures. From 1978 to 1988, 10 cases of various congenital heart diseases and 17 cases of acquired heart diseases were reoperated at Hanyang University Hospital. The leading indication of second operation was residual shunt or valvular malfunction due to technical failure in congenital heart disease and primary valve failure, endocarditis, paravalvular leakage were for acquired heart disease. The mortality of reoperation was 0% for congenital heart disease and 11.7%[2 death among the 17 patients] for acquired heart disease. The leading causes of death were myocardial failure, sepsis with endocarditis, acute renal failure and congestive heart failure.

Background: Treatment of pulmonary metastasis from urothelial cell carcinoma has been mostly palliative chemotherapy and the role of pulmonary metastasectomy has not been investigated much. Materials and Methods: This study is a retrospective interim review of pulmonary metastasectomy from urothelial carcinoma at single institution between 1998 and 2010. Overall 16 patients underwent pulmonary metastasectomies. Results: There was no postoperative complication or hospital mortality. Mean hospital stay was 6 days. Overall and disease-free 5-year survival were 65.3% and 37.5%, respectively. Conclusion: In selected patients with pulmonary metastasis from urothelial carcinoma, surgical treatment is feasible and could contribute to long-term survival in selected patients.

From January 1984 to December 1991, One hundred sixty five patients with carcinomoa of the esophagus were treated surgically at the department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital. Among them, hospital records were available in 121 patients and were included in this study. There were 115 men and 6 women, with ages ranging from 40 years to 79 years[mean age of 59.2 years]. The most frequent preoperative symptoms included dysphagia[72.7%], weight loss[60.3%], chest pain or discomfort[14.9%], general malaise[13.2%]. All were treated surgically: 100 patients were managed by curative or palliative resection with reconstruction, and 6 by palliative bypass surgery. In 15 patients, explorative thoracotomy or laparotomy was only done due to unresectability. [operability: 87.6%, resectability: 82.6%] All specimens[those from resectable 100 cases] were sent to pathology, and histopathologic examinations were done; squamous cell carcinomas were found in 95 cases, adenocarcinoma in l. Adenosquamous carcinomas were found in 3, and malignant melanoma in l. Postoperative complications occurred in 34 cases; anastomotic site leakage[10], which was followed by empyema in 9 of them, wound problem[7], hepatic failure[6], pneumonia [3], post-operative bleeding[3], chylothorax[2], post-operative stricture[2], sepsis[1], and tracheobronchial fistula[1]. Hospital deaths were in 6 cases[Hospital mortality: 5.0%]. During the follow up period, 26 patients were proven to be recurrence of cancer locally or distantly. The one, two, and five-year actuarial survival raf.es were 71.3$\pm$4.5%, 57.4$\pm$5.6%, 34.7$\pm$8.9%, respectively. The data from this study suggested that esophagectomy with reconstruction of gastrointestinal tract could be performed with a low operative mortality and a few serious postoperative complications and achieved reasonable long term palliation for carcinoma of the esophagus.

배경: 양방향성 상대정맥-폐동맥 단락술은 복잡심기형의 일차적 고식수술 중 하나로, 여러가지 장점이 있으나 유아 환아들에서는 수술 후 위험성이 높은 것으로 알려져 있다. 대상 및 방법: 1995년부터 2003년까지 48명의 1세 이하 환아들이 연세대학교 심장혈관병원에서 양방향성 상대정맥-폐동맥 단락술을 시행 받았다. 모든 환아들은 단심실로 인한 폰탄수술의 대상자였다. 환아들은 수술당시의 나이에 따라 두 군으로 분류되었다 A군(<3개월, 12명)과 B군(3${\~}$12개월, 36명) 간에 평균 나이(67.58$\pm$3.78 vs. 212.91 $\pm$ 13.44일)와 평균 몸무게(4.51 $\pm$0.29 vs. 6.62 $\pm$0.27 kg)를 제외한 술 전 변수들은 차이가 없었다. 결과: A군에서 연속적으로 측정한 동맥혈 산소 포화도가 통계학적으로 유의하게 낮게 나타났다. 병원 내 사망률은 각각 $25\%$와 $19\%$였다. 추적관찰 기간동안 A군에서 2명, B군에서 5명의 만기 사망이 있었다. 결론: 본 연구에서는 유아기의 환아들에서도, 수술 위험성이 나이가 든 환아들과 비교하여 비슷하여 양방향성 상대정맥-폐동맥 단락술이 후에 시행될 폰탄수술의 위험성을 높일 수 있는 반복적인 고식적 수술을 피할 수 있는 수술방법이라고 생각한다. 하지만, 폐동맥고혈압이나 Heterotaxia 증후군 등이 동반된 고위험군 환아에서는 다른 고식적 수술을 고려하는 것이 좋을 것으로 생각한다.

Patients with advanced malignant tumors, including both jaws, is a challenging task for a head and neck surgeon. Current treatment landscape demonstrates good functional, anatomical, and aesthetic results in patients who could previously receive only palliative care. The extensive tissue defects resulting from oncological resections in the head and neck region require immediate reconstruction due to the exposure of vital structures and their contact with the external environment. A patient was operated using a three-team multidisciplinary approach involving simultaneous work of three specialized teams of maxillofacial and reconstructive microsurgeons, as well as an implantologist and a prosthodontist. This approach allowed simultaneous tumor resection with subsequent reconstruction of the intraoperative defect involving bilateral harvesting of two revascularized free fibular osteomusculocutaneous flaps with dental implantation and simultaneous rehabilitation of dentition with crowns.
