6개월 남아와 30개월 여아가 호흡곤란을 주소로 내원하였다. 이들은 모두 선천성 근질환을 진단 받았으며 반복적인 폐렴의 과거력이 있었고 흉부방사선촬영상 횡격막성 내장탈출을 관찰할 수 있었다. 근질환을 가진 환아에 있어서 일반적인 개흉술을 시행할 경우 환아의 술 후 합병증의 발생 위험이 높다고 판단되어 흉강경을 이용한 주름성형술을 시행하였다. 두 환아는 각각 수술 후 17일, 24일째 퇴원하였으며 현재 외래에서 경과 관찰 중이다. 본원에서는 선천성 근질환을 가진 환아를 대상으로 흉강경을 이용한 주름성형술 2예를 체험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

심각한 허혈성 심근병증(ischernic cardiomyopathy, ICMP)에 동반된 승모판 폐쇄부전증에 있어서 심장이식이 여의치 않은 상황에서의 수술적 치료로는 경색이 아닌 부위의 심근(viable myocardium)에 대한 관상동맥 우회술(coronary revascularization)과 좌심실 용적 축소술(LV reduction), 승모판 재건술(mitral reconstruction)이 그 중심으로 자리잡고 있다. 허혈성 심근병증에 있어서 승모판 폐쇄 부전은 다양한 병인으로 나타나며, 그 중 판막륜의확장 외에도 유두근의 전위가 중요한 원인으로 지적되고 있다. 본원에서는 승모판 폐쇄 부전증을 동반한 좌 주 관상동맥을 포함한 심한 관상동맥질환과 허혈성 심근병증 환자에 대한 관상동맥 우회술과 함께, 좌심실 절개를 통한 승모판 뒤판엽 성형술(posterior mitral annuloplasty), 유두근 단축술(Papillary muscle plication)의 수술적 치험을 보고하고자 한다.

Ventricular septal defect[VSD] associated with aortic regurgitation[AR] represents 2 to 7.5% of all VSD which is most common congenital heart disease. The aortic valve may by normal in infants with VSD, but the aortic regurgitation may be developed in these patients later. The aortic valve became fibrotic, thickened, deformed and prolapsed, so these late deformities require to be corrected with plication, valvuloplasty or aortic valve replacement [AVR]. There are some controversy between the early repair of VSD alone and the late repair of VSD and aortic valve till now. From December 1971 to August 1983, we had experienced 24 patients of VSD associated with AR which constitute 6.5% of our total patients with VSD. The VSD was subpulmoary [type I] in 14[58.3%], subcristal [type II] in 8[33.3%], atrioventricular canal type[type III] in 1, and combine of type I and II in 1. Patch repair of VSD was made in 15 patients and direct suture of small VSD in 9.14 patients had aortic plication of valvuloplasty and 9 had AVR accompanying VSD repair, and 1 patient had VSD closure alone. The postoperative courses of these patients were uneventful except in some cases. A patient who was undertaken AVR with Starr-Edwards ball valve and VSD closure, died due to left ventricular failure and low cardiac output syndrome. Follow up shows, in 14 patients with aortic plication or valvuloplasty, AR was developed in 9. In 9 AVR, there were two later complications which were paravalvular leakage in one and re-AVR due to subacute bacterial endocarditis in another.

Background: The purpose of this study is to introduce our modified disc plication technique using MITEK mini anchors and to evaluate the clinical outcome for patients with internal derangement (ID) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Patients and methods: We evaluated 65 joints in 46 patients, comprised 32 women and 14 men, who first visited the Asan Medical Center from December 2012 to December 2016. The age of the patients ranged from 14 to 79 years, with a mean age of 36.6 years. The patients presented with joint problems including pain, joint noise, and mouth opening limitation (MOL). Patients who met our inclusion criteria underwent unilateral or bilateral disc repositioning surgery with our minimally invasive disc plication technique using MITEK mini anchors and No. 2-0 Ethibond^® braided polyester sutures. The variables taken into account in this study were the range of maximum mouth opening (MMO), painful symptoms (evaluated with the visual analog scale, VAS), and the type of noise (click, popping, crepitus) in the TMJ. Results: Preoperative examination revealed painful symptoms in 50.7% (n = 35) of the operated joints (n = 69) and the presence of clicks in 56.5% (n = 39). Postoperative examination revealed that 4.3% (n = 3) of the operated joints had painful symptoms with lower intensity than that in the preoperative condition. Additionally, 17.4% (n = 12) had residual noise in the TMJ, among which two were clicking and the other 10 had mild crepitus. The intensity of the postoperative residual noise was significantly decreased in all cases compared to that in the preoperative condition. Among patients with MOL below 38 mm (n = 18), the mean MMO was 31.4 mm preoperatively and 44.2 mm at 6 months postoperatively, with a mean increase of 13.8 mm. A barely visible scar at the operation site was noted during the postoperative observation period, with no significant complications such as facial palsy or permanent occlusal disharmony. Conclusion: Subjective symptoms in all patients improved following the surgery. TMJ disc plication using MITEK mini anchors with our minimally invasive approach may be a feasible and effective surgical option for treating TMJ ID patients who are not responsive to conservative treatment.

배경: 횡경막 내장전위증의 치료를 위해 흉강경을 이용한 횡격막 주를 성형술은 효과적인 방법이다. 그러나, 기존 흉강경을 이용한 횡경막 주름 성형술은 여러 가지 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 저자들은 Head up position, $CO_2$ 삽입 및 Figure of eight 봉합법을 이용하여 수술 술기를 단순화하여 기존 흉강경의 단점을 개선하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2005년 3월부터 2009년 9월까지 횡경막 내장전위증으로 수술을 받은 9명의 환자를 대상으로 후향적 연구를 시행하였다. 평균 연령은 $38.5{\pm}53.0$세(범위, 2~76세)였으며 남자 4명, 여자 5명이었다. 결과: 평균 수술 시간은 $46.7{\pm}15.9$분(범위, 30~85분)이었다. 수술 중 사망은 없었다. 합병증으로는 7일 이상의 지속적 공기 누출 1예, 폐부종(Re-expansion pulmonary edema)으로 3일간 호흡기 사용 1예가 있었다. 평균 재원일 수는 $6.22{\pm}2.04$일(범위, 4~11일)이었다. 수술 후 추적 관찰 기간(평균 $27.2{\pm}11.6$개월, 범위 2~43개월) 동안 1예에서만 수술 직후 횡경막 위치에 비해 2.5 cm 이상 상승을 보였다. 호흡 곤란 증상을 보이는 환자는 없었다. 결론: 저자들의 변형 술식에 의해 횡격막 내장전위증 환자에서 단지 수술창의 사용없이 3개의 5 mm 포트를 이용하여 횡격막 주름 성형술이 가능하였다. 횡경막 내장 전위증 환자에서 흉강경을 이용한 방법이 현재 널리 사용되고 있는 개흉을 이용한 방법보다 유용한 수술 방법으로 생각된다.

A 1.2 kg, five-month-old, female domestic short-hair cat was referred to Seoul National University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital with a history of vomiting immediatley after eating. Clinical signs were depression, anorexia, severe dehydration and vomiting since weaning. According to history taking, physical examination, complete blood count, serum chemical profile and contrast radiographic study, it was diagnosed as congenital sliding esophageal hiatal hernia. Diaphragmatic plication, esophagopexy and left-sided belt-loop gastropexy were performed. Ranitidine (2 mg/kg, IV, q12h) and sucralfate suspension (20 mg/kg, PO, q6h) were administered with low-fat liquified diet to treat reflux esophagitis. Clinical signs related to esophageal hiatal hernia disappeared immediately after surgical treatment and did not recur for 4 months.

A one day old female infant was brought to the emergency room suffering from shortness of breath. An x-ray revealed the gastrointestinal tract in the right thoracic cavity. An emergency operation demonstrated eventration of the diaphragm, and a plication was performed. The baby was discharged without complication and has been followed up in the out patient clinic. Congenital diaphragmatic eventuation requiring emergency operation is rare.

A 2-year-old spayed female British Shorthair cat presented with an increased frequency and duration of cough since infant period. Based on radiographic, ultrasonographic, and computed tomography findings, peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia was considered so that repair surgery was planned. During celiotomy, lax diaphragm was identified instead of defect. Transabdominal diaphragmatic plication was performed to resolve lax diaphragm and to prevent recurrence by overlapping relatively normal part of diaphragm. Diagnosed with diaphragmatic eventration postoperatively, the cat showed improvement in clinical signs and imaging results. Transabdominal diaphragmatic plication is a suitable treatment; the patient maintained normally during a 14-month follow-up period.
