빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군은 좌측 몸쪽부분 빗장밑동맥 혹은 팔머리동맥에 심한 혈관 협착이나 폐색이 원인이 되어 발생한다. 병변이 있는 부위에서는 제한적이며, 불충분한 혈류가 발생하여 반대쪽으로부터 연결혈관을 통해 일부 혈액이 유입될 수 있다. 이러한 현상을 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상이라고 한다. 이중초음파검사는 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상을 측정하는데 유용한다. 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상을 보이는 일부 환자에서는 척추뇌바닥혈류부전 혹은 허혈성 말초동맥질환 증상을 호소한다. 빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군은 빗장밑혈류빼앗김현상과 더불어 신경학적 증상이 반드시 동반될 경우로 정의할 수 있다. 저자는 팔머리동맥의 심한 협착을 보이는 환자에서 척추동맥과 더불어 바깥목동맥과 전방순환계를 담당하는 온목동맥 및 속목동맥에서 이중초음파검사를 이용한 혈류빼앗김현상이 관찰된 증례를 보고하고자 한다.

빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군은 왼쪽 근위부 빗장밑동맥이나 오른쪽 팔머리동맥에 심한 협착 혹은 폐색으로 인해 반대쪽 척추동맥으로부터 관류압이 감소된 병변쪽 빗장밑동맥으로 혈류가 역으로 유입되는 현상이 나타나게 되고, 그 결과로 척추-뇌바닥혈류부전이나 허혈성 말초동맥질환 증상이 동반되는 경우를 말한다. 빗장밑동맥을 포함한 뇌혈관 협착증에서 신경중재술을 이용한 혈류의 회복 및 방향 교정은 환자의 증상과 예후를 좋게 한다고 알려져 있다. 저자는 오른팔에 비해 왼팔 혈압이 12 mmHg 낮은 환자에서 이중초음파검사를 시행하였고, 왼쪽 척추동맥에서 빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군의 특징적인 혈류파형이 관찰되어 혈관성형술 및 스텐트 설치술을 통해 성공적으로 치료된 증례를 보고하고자 한다. 6개월 후 추적검사에서 왼쪽 척추동맥의 혈류파형은 정상으로 회복되었고, 양팔의 혈압 차는 5 mmHg로 감소하였다.

Right aortic arch with isolation of the left subclavian artery is a rare anomaly. The incidence of bilateral ductus arteriosus is sporadic, and a right aortic arch with isolation of the left subclavian artery in association with bilateral ductus arteriosus is therefore extremely rare. Since the symptoms and signs of isolation of the left subclavian artery can include the absence or underdevelopment of the left arm, subclavian steal syndrome, or pulmonary artery steal syndrome, the proper therapeutic approach is controversial. We report a case in which surgical reconstruction was used to treat isolation of the left subclavian artery with right aortic arch in association with bilateral ductus arteriosus and a ventricular septal defect.

A 60-year-old man visited the outpatient clinic due to one month of recurrent exertional chest pain. Eleven years earlier he had undergone off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting using bilateral internal thoracic artery (ITA) Y-composite grafts based on the left ITA. Preoperative coronary angiography showed patent distal graft anastomoses and visualized the left ITA retrogradely. The arch aortography revealed near-total occlusion of the left subclavian artery at the level of the ostium. The patient underwent left carotid-to-subclavian artery bypass grafting using a 6 mm vascular conduit. Postoperative computed tomographic angiography revealed a patent bypass conduit between the left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 4 with no symptoms or signs of myocardial ischemia.

Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a disease that causes inflammation and stenosis of medium to large blood vessels. We report a case of a 50-year-old female patient with newly developed hypertension, syncope, and claudication of the extremities. Total occlusion of the left subclavian artery at the origin was found and significant stenosis of the right common iliac artery was revealed by hemodynamic analysis. She was successfully treated with percutaneous angioplasty for multiple peripheral arterial diseases and was finally diagnosed with TA. In consultation with a rheumatologist, medical treatment for TA was initiated, the patient's hypertension disappeared, and her claudication symptoms improved.

A 36 year old blindman, engineer was admitted with chief complaints of hemoptysis, recurrent sore throat, pyoderma in genital organ, uveitis and thrombophlebitis for 10 years. Above the chief complaints were remission or exacerbation during hospitalization. Physicalexamination showed that left radial, ulnar & brachial pulse was not palpable. No bruit or murmur was obtained over the mass. Neurologic examination revealed no significant finding.On admission, chest P-A showed hen egg sized round & oval compact hazy density on left upper lung field. Bronchogram revealed no pathological finding and Lt. tomogram showed well define large,ovoid mass density in the superior mediastinum. Fluoroscopy finding showed nonpulsatile on left upper lung field. Pre-op. aortography was not taken, under the impression of lung Ca. rule out .sortie aneurysm, exploratory operation was performed through the 2nd intercostal space, Lt. It was performed that the mass was ascending sortie aneurysm of saccular type. Direct aneurysmectomy with multiple figure of eight suture were done without any prosthetic graft. Post-op. control I.V.C graphy showed completely obstruction sign. Postopcontrol aortography revealed good surgical result. Final, histopathological answered non-specific sortie aneurysm, saccular type. Post-op. courses were uneventful except mild neurologic disturbance with subclavian steal syndrome and associated with both lower leg pitting edema due to inferior vena cava obstruction. After op, 3 month later, discharged to home, with big systemic problem. Behcet`s syndrome reviewed with related literatures. The coexistence of mouth and genital ulceration with hypopyon mentioned by hippocrates and described by various workers in the early part of this century was first defined as a syndrome by Behcet in 1937. In 1937 Behcet described a chronic relapsing triple symptom complex of oral ulceration, genital ulceration, and ocular inflammation. The place of the syndrome as part of a systemic disorder in now clearer, and the under lying pathology appears to be a vasculitis. The disease runs a- chronic course, blindness being the greatest disability and control nervous system involvement a cause of death. Thrombophlebitis is fairly frequent, france et al [1951] giving an incidence of 25% and Dowling [1961] 12%, superficial thrombophlebitis migrans and thrombosis of large veins, including venae cavae [Thomas, 1947: Boolukos 1960] are recorded. Little attention has been paid to arterial involvement. Mishima et al. [1961] described resection cf an aortic aneurysm in a 38 year old man with Behcet`s syndorme. Mounsey in a clinicopathological conference described a case [Brit, med. J., 1966] of ruptured aortic aneurysm in Bechcet`s syndrome treated by aorto-iliac graft. Also, Shikano and Oshima et al [1963] recorded two aneyrysm of smaller arteries. Unfrequently, aortic aneurysm was presumed to be secondary to osteomyelitis of the lumber spine, though the possible association between aortic aneurysm and Behcet`s syndrome was raised. A further case is reported here, in which ascending aortic aneurysm with Behcet`s Ds. appeared to form part of this generalized disease. This is a case report of surgical experience of Behcet`s Ds. with ascending aortic aneurysm which had nearly all the typical clinical features. Above mentioned and was reviewed with related literatures.
