동정맥류 조성술은 말기 신장질환자의 치료에 이용하는 혈액투석을 위하여 매우 중요한 역할을하며 적절한 조성술 및 장기간의 개존상태 유지는 외과의사에게 흉미있는 문제이다 동정맥루 조성술후에 발 생한 림프관종은 매우 희귀하며 림프액의 축적으로 생 긴것므로 추측된다. 림프관종은 선천성으로 혹은 수술이나 방사선조사 등과 같은 후천적 원인으로 나타나는 양성종양이며 림프조직이 분포하는 신체의 어느부분에서도 생 길 수 있다. 동맥류와 세심한 감별을 요하며 치료는 수술적 제거이다. 저자들은 59세 여자환자에서 Gore-tex이식편을 사용하여 좌측전완동맥-요측퍼정맥 동정맥루 조성술 시행후 좌측 상 완에 발생 했던, 동맥류로 오인된 거대 림프관종을 수술적 치험하였기에 보고하는바이다.

aortoiliac pattern, Group II; femoropopliteal pattern and Group g; tibioperoneal pattern. A majority of patients belonged to group I [27 cases], 8 patients came under group II .and none in group g. Thirty patients underwent bypass operation with autogenous saphenous vein or synthetic graft with or without concomitant lumbar sympathectomy. Remaining 5 patients were operated on with sympathectomy only, Bypass procedures were anatomic bypass in 22 cases: aortoiliac artery bypass in 11 cases, femoropopliteal artery bypass in 10 cases, sequential femoropopliteal artery bypass in one case and extra-anatomic bypass in 8 cases, axillary-bifemoral artery bypass in one case and femorofemoral artery bypass in 7 cases. Postoperative complications which mainly composed of superficial wound infection[5 cases] which were treated without any significant sequel in all cases and thrombosis[2 cases]. Three patients died whose causes of death were acute renal failure in 2 cases and myocardial infarction in other, The overall patency, rate was 70Zo in 5 years. In conclusion, the clinical pattern and operative outcome were similar to he western pattern and all cases of death did not related to operative procedures and ischemic symptoms were relieved by bypass operations except several cases. I think and recommend that all patients suffering chronic arterial insufficiency by atherosclerosis obliterans ought to be managed with urgent and adequate operative procedure.

We have observed retroperitoneal hematoma after trigger point injections of quadratus lumborum in a patient with chronic low back pain. Severe flank pain and dyspnea was observed three hours after injection of local anesthetic and steroid to the trigger point of quadratus lumborum muscle. There was fuge hematoma in abdominal CT image around the right kidney, which displaced and compressed the kidney anteriorly. Following infusion of contrast media, extravasation through renal vein and IVC was notified. Patient had a past history of having been treated with platelet aggregation inhibitor and lower dose aspirin treatment after cerebral ischemia for a year, but coagulative function was within normal range. Patient was admitted 12 days for bed rest, pain control and transfusion. We need to take greater care with a frequent aspiration and exact direction of needle, during trigger point injection of quadratus lumborum, particu right side, to avoid vascular injury.

흉쇄골관절은 전신의 골관절염 중 매우 드물게 이환되는 부위로 주로 마약 중독자, 당뇨병, 만성 신부전, 폐혈증 환자, 및 중심 정맥 혈관 삽입 후에 주로 나타난다. 초기에는 항생제 치료, 단순 절제 및 배농술 등의 방법으로 치유될 수 있으나, 치료 시기를 놓치면 골수염으로 진행되어 광범위 절제가 필요하다. 그러나 재발할 가능성이 있으므로, 본원 흉부외과에서는 혈류를 유지한 대흉근판을 빈공간에 메워 넣어 재발 가능성을 줄여보고자 하였다. 골수염을 동반한 흉쇄골 관절염 환자를 성공적으로 치료하였기에 이에 보고하는 바이다.

Primary leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare malignant tumor. Herein, we report the case of a 52-year-old male patient who had postprandial abdominal distension and right upper quadrant abdominal pain. The abdominal computed tomography (CT) angiogram showed an IVC mass extending from the infrahepatic to the suprarenal inferior vena cava. The radiologic findings were suggestive of an IVC leiomyosarcoma. Surgical resection and reconstruction with a cryopreserved homograft were performed. The follow-up abdominal CT angiogram revealed the patient to be disease-free 6 months after surgery with patency of the IVC and renal vein.

Oriental pear was used as treatment of asthma, control of blood pressure tonic medicine diabetes in oriental medicine, Pear Pectin was effective on control of blood pressure in previous report. In this study, it was investigated that Woohwang with pear extractions effects on cardiovascular system as blood pressure and renin and Atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) in plasma. The 2K1C hypertension model was prepared by constricting the left renal artery with a sliver dip. Animals were then divided into three groups, control, Woowhang:Pear Phenolic compound(1:1), Woowhang:Pear Phenolic compound(2:1),Woowhang:Pear Phenolic compound(1:2) were supplied with them. Direct-blood pressure was measured at femoral vein, Indirect-blood pressure was measured at rodent tail. The results are as follows. The blood pressure was more significantly decreased at 1:2(woohwang:pear phenolic compound)group than other groups. On 6,9,12,15days, the blood pressure was significantly decreased in 1:2(woohwang:pear phenolic compound)group. The plasma ANP was significantly increased in 1:2(woohwang:pear phenolic compound)group. It tenders to decrease in 1:2(woohwang:pear phenolic compound)group on plasma renin. Based on the above results it is assumed that oral administration of Woohwang with Pear Phenolic compound(1:2) can help the treatment of hypertension.

Nutcracker syndrome is a phenomenon that the left renal vein (LRV) is pressed between the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the aorta. Clinical characteristics include gross or microscopic hematuria, orthostatic proteinuria, abdominal pain, and back pain. It occurs due to LRV squeezing caused by narrowed aortomesenteric angle. SMA syndrome is a disease that the third part of the duodenum is prone to intestinal obstruction by narrowed angle between the SMA and the abdominal aorta. Clinical symptoms include postprandial abdominal distension, epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting. SMA syndrome and nutcracker syndrome have common features that result from narrowed aortomesenteric angle. However, it is very rare for both syndromes to occur simultaneously, so the two syndromes are regarded as separate diseases. This is a report on a case of nutcracker syndrome with SMA syndrome in a child who presented gross hematuria, recurrent abdominal pain and vomiting. To our knowledge, nutcracker syndrome simultaneous with SMA syndrome has not been previously reported in pediatric patient, especially with an exhibition of gross hematuria. This case suggests that the simultaneous presence of SMA syndrome with the same pathogenesis needs to be considered when nutcracker syndrome is suspected in pediatric patients with hematuria.

A total and consecutive 46 patients have undergone cardiac valvular surgery including 8 open mitral commissurotomy and 38 mitral, aortic, mitral-aortic, mitral-tricuspid, tricuspid valve replacements using 46 artificial valves in a period between September 1976 and July 1981. They were 19 males and 27 females with the age ranging from 16 to 50 (mean 32.6) years. Out of 46 valves replaced, 6 were prosthetic valves and 40 were tissue valves, and 33 were replaced in mitral, 9 in aortic and 3 In tricuspid position. Isolated replacements were 33 mitral valves, 6 aortic valves and 1 tricuspid valve; double valve replacements were 6 mitral-aortic valves and 2 mitral-tricuspid valves. . Early mortality within 30 days after operation was noted in 4 cases; 3 after MVR and 1 after open mitral commissurotomy. Causes of death were thrombus obstruction of Beall-Surgitool, Cerebral air embolism, acute renal shut down due to low output syndrome, and left upper pUlmonary vein rupture after open mitral commissurotomy (early mortality 8.7%). 3 late deaths were noted during the follow-up period from 2 to 59 months; 1 due to cerebral hemorrhage from warfarin overdose 3 months, 1 due to miliary tuberculosis 9 months, and another 1 due to cardiac failure after open mitral commissurotomy 42 months postoperatively. Total survival rate 59 months after valvular surgery was 84.8%; there were no early and late death in the group of AVR, TVR and double valve replacements. Preoperative NYHA Class III & IV were 35 cases (76%) out of total 46 cases, and 38 cases (94.8%) out of 39 survival cases were included In NYHA Class I & II during the follow-up period.

A two-year-old, intact female Golden Retriever had previously been diagnosed with a portosystemic shunt (PSS) during an ultrasonographic examination at a local animal hospital. The serum biochemistry revealed elevated liver enzymes and bile acid levels. The abdominal radiographic examination revealed mild serosal detail loss and microhepatica, while abdominal ultrasonography revealed mild ascites and high-velocity flow to the caudal vena cava (CVC) suspected as a PSS. The gallbladder was not observed within the hepatic parenchyma during ultrasonography. Computed tomography (CT) revealed an absent gallbladder and dilation of the common bile duct (CBD). Dilations of the gastroduodenal, splenic, colic and renal veins were also observed. A dilated left phrenico-abdominal vein that entered the CVC was previously misinterpreted as a PSS on the ultrasound examination. Based on the imaging examinations, the dog was diagnosed with congenital gallbladder agenesis associated CBD dilation.

혈액투석 환자에서 중심정맥 협착은 비교적 흔한 합병증이다. 하지만 중심정맥 협착으로 인해 대뇌 정맥 고혈압과 이로 인한 신경학적 증상이 발생하는 것은 비교적 드물다. 중심정맥협착으로 인해 발생한 좌측 내경정맥으로부터의 역행성 혈류로 대뇌 정맥 고혈압이 발생한 63세 남성의 증례를 보고하고자 한다. 환자는 중심정맥 협착에 대한 치료를 받은 후 증상 및 치료 전 자기공명영상에서 역행성 혈류를 의미하는 time-of-flight 신호가 소실되었다.
