Thoracic endovascular aortic repair has become a widespread alternative treatment option for thoracic aortic aneurysm. The debranching of arch vessels may be required to provide an acceptable landing zone for an endovascular stent graft. We report a case where the bypass graft used in the thoracic endovascular aortic repair procedure compressed the left internal jugular vein, causing acute thrombotic occlusion.

복부 인조혈관 감염증은 매우 심각한 상태로서 문합부 파열로 심한 출혈이나 급성 말초 색전증으로 하지 허혈을 유발하여 사망률이 높고 치료하기 어려운 질환으로 치료에 대한 논란이 많은 질환이다. 저자는 복부대동맥류 수술 후 약 1년 후에 발생한 인조혈관 감염증례를 양 허벅지 심부정맥인 표제성 대퇴정맥을 사용하여 재치환하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 문헌과 함께 보고한다.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a congenital vascular disease in which interventional radiologists can play both diagnostic and therapeutic roles in patient management. The diagnosis of pulmonary AVM is simple and can usually be made based on CT images. Endovascular treatment, that is, selective embolization of the pulmonary artery feeding the nidus of the pulmonary AVM, and/or selectively either the nidus or draining vein, has become a first-line treatment with advances in interventional devices. However, some vascular diseases can simulate pulmonary AVMs on CT and pulmonary angiography. This subset can confuse interventional radiologists and referring physicians. Vascular mimickers of pulmonary AVM have not been widely known and described in detail in the literature, although some of these require surgical correction, while others require regular follow-up. This article reviews the clinical and radiologic features of pulmonary AVMs and their mimickers.

From 1968 through September 1986, the authors have experienced 34 cases of peripheral arterial surgery using various vascular grafts. Almost all patients [32] were men, and age distribution was variable according to the disease entities. There were twenty eight cases of chronic occlusive peripheral vascular disease including ASO [21], Buerger`s disease [6], Aortoenteric fistula complicating infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm [1], four cases of vascular trauma, one case of acute arterial embolism [1] and one case of unknown etiology. The indications of operations for chronic vascular disease was intermittent claudication in 48%, rest pain in 45%, ischemic pregangrene or gangrene in 28%, and sensory change in 10% of patients. Types of operation used were arterial bypass in 28 cases [Aortobifemoral in 5, Aortoiliac in 3, Aortofemoral in 4, Aortoiliac with Aortofemoral in 1, Femorofemoral in 1, Femoropopliteal in 8, Femoroperoneal in 2, Axillofemoral in 3 cases of patients], graft interposition in four and patch angioplasty in three cases. Thirty four prosthetic vascular grafts including Dacron, Gore-Tex, Nylon and two autogenous saphenous vein graft and patch were used for vascular reconstruction in thirty four patients. Unfortunately recently performed one vein bypass was failed immediate postoperatively due to severity of disease and poor case selection. The authors experienced five post operative complications: wound infection [1], graft infection [1], bleeding [1], great saphenous neuralgia [1], pseudoaneurysm [1]. Twenty two of thirty four patients were followed up for more than one month and their cumulative patency rate was 81% [17/22] at 1 month and, 31% [7/22] at 5 month.

68세된 남자로 좌측과 후측 흉부에 통증을 주소로 내원하였다. 술전 시행한 흉복부 W scan에서 대동맥류는 좌측 쇄골하동맥에서 횡격막까지 연결되었고 긴박성 파열의 소견도 보였다. 또한 술전 관동맥조영술에서는 좌회선동맥에 95%, 좌전하행지에 50%의 협착소견을 보였다. 수술은 고동맥-고정맥 우회술을 하면서 좌측 제 4늑간을 통하여 측후방 개흉절개를 하여 수술시야를 확보하였고 대동맥을 차단한뒤 대동맥류를 절개하고 인조혈관으로 대치하였다. 그리고 심박동하에서 대복제정 맥을 이용하여 좌회선동맥의 두번째 둔각변연동맥과 좌측 쇄골하동맥 기시부에 관상동맥 우회술을 하였다. 술후 환자는 술중 저혈압성 쇼크와 저산소증으로 다발성 뇌경색의 합병증을 보였다.

Several types of soft tissue masses occur in the lower extremities. A mass associated with blood vessels is often difficult to diagnose. A 15-year-old male patient visited the author's hospital with discomfort and edema in his right calf that had persisted for six months. A physical examination showed no palpable mass other than mild edema. Three masses were found during the ultrasound scan along the small saphenous vein. The masses had a cyst-like appearance and were filled with thrombus. In duplex ultrasound, vascular reflux was represented inside the masses. During surgery, it was suspected that vascular deformation occurred in the small saphenous vein, and simple ligation and resection treatments were performed. The patient was finally diagnosed with venous aneurysms accompanied by thrombosis based on the histology tests. The symptoms disappeared after surgery, and there were no recurrences or unusual findings at the follow-up one year later. Venous aneurysms occurring in the superficial veins of the lower extremities are rarely reported, but treatment and diagnosis are important. This paper reports a case of an aneurysm on the small saphenous vein.

Objective : Extracranial-intracranial(EC-IC) microvascular anastomosis was performed in 18 patients with hemodynamic cerebral ischemia and traumatic cerebral aneurysm, the aim of this retrospective study was to assess its value in neurosurgical field. Method : Of 18 cases, 17 case were hemodynamic cerebral ischemia and one was traumatic cerebral aneurysm. There were 14 superficial temporal artery(STA)-to-middle cerebral artery(MCA) anastomosis, 3 saphenous vein graft bypass(2 external carotid artery(ECA)-to-MCA, 1main trunk of the STA-to-MCA) and 1 radial artery bypass(ECA-to-MCA). Results : Bypass patency was confirmed by postoperative angiography in all cases except for two cases, postoperative cerebral blood flow of ischemic brain showed significant increased in all cases with good patency through bypass. Conclusion : Revascularization by EC-IC microvascular anastomosis to the ischemic brain eliminated ischemia and was associated with excellent good outcome and good patency rates.

A 38-year-old male was admitted to our hospital due to painful swelling of his right popliteal fossa. He had been kicked in his right popliteal fossa during a soccer game about three weeks earlier. Computerized tomographic angiography of the lower extremity demonstrated a 4-cm-wide, 3-cm-long aneurysmal change of the popliteal artery. He underwent aneurysmectomy and graft interposition using a great saphenous vein graft. Pathologic findings of the resected specimen were consistent with those of a pseudoaneurysm.

The authors have performed operations on vascular system of 108 cases from 1972 through 1979, and analyzed the diseases, surgical procedures and results. They were 1. Arterial system; 45 cases P.D.A. : 20 Occlusive diseases : 13 Coarctation of aorta : 4 Aneurysm : 4 A-V fistula : 2 Trauma : 2 2. Venous system; 6 cases Esophageal varix : 4 S.V.C. syndrome : 1 Varicose vein : 1 3. Arteriovenous shunt for hemodialysis; 57 cases Of the arterial diseases, the worst results came from Burger`s disease. For the bleeding esophageal varices, we have performed ligations of varices or collateral circulations rather than emergency splenorenal shunt with good results. External A-V shunt for hemodialysis had much more complications than the A-V fistula.
