For years, physicians and anatomists have been interested in the heart that has one functioning ventricle. Various terms have been suggested for this entity including single ventricle, common ventricle, double-inlet left ventricle, cor biatriatum triloculare, and primitive ventricle. In this report, the term "single ventricle" is utilized as suggested by Van Praagh, and is defined as that congenital cardiac anomaly in which a common or separate atrioventricular valves open into a ventricular chamber from which both great arterial trunks emerge. An outlet chamber, or infundibulum, may or may not be present and give rise to the origin of either of the great arteries. This definition excludes the entity of mitral and tricuspid atresia. An 11 year old cyanotic boy was admitted chief complaints of exertional dyspnea and frequent upper respiratory infection since 2 weeks after birth. He was diagnosed as inoperable cyanotic congenital heart disease, and remained without any corrective treatment up to his age of 11 year when he suffered from aggravation of symptoms and signs of congestive heart failure for 2 months before this admission. On 22nd of May 1979, he was admitted for total corrective operation under the impression of tricuspid atresia suggested by a pediatrician. Physical check revealed deep cyanosis with finger and toe clubbing, and grade V systolic ejection murmur with single second heart sound was audible at the left 3rd intercostal space. Development was moderate in height [135 cm] and weight[28Kg]. Routine lab findings were normal except increased hemoglobin [21.1gm%], hematocrit [64 %], and left axis deviation with left ventricular hypertrophy on EKG. Cardiac catheterization and angiography revealed 1-transposition of aorta, pulmonic valvular stenosis, double inlet of a single ventricle with d-loop, and normal atriovisceral relationship [Type III C solitus according to the classification of Van Praagh]. At operation, longitudinal incision at the outflow tract of right ventricle in between the right coronary artery and its branch [LAD from RCA] revealed high far anterior aortic valve which had fibrous continuity with mitral annulus, and pulmonic valve was stenotic up to 4 mm in diameter positioned posterolaterally to the aorta. Ventricular septum was totally defective, and one markedly hypertrophied moderator band originated from crista supraventricularis was connected down to the imaginary septum of the ventricular cavity as a pseudoseptum of the ventricle. Size of the defect was 3X3 cm2 in total. Patch closure of the defect with a Teflon felt of 3.5 x 4 cm2 was done with interrupted multiple sutures after cut off of the moderator band, which was resutured to the artificial septum after reconstruction of the ventricular septum. Pulmonic valvotomy was done from 4 mm to 11 mm in diameter thru another pulmonary arteriotomy incision, and right ventriculotomy wound was closed reconstructing the right ventricular outflow tract with pericardial autograft of 3 x 4 cm2. Atrial septal defect of 2 cm in diameter was closed with 3-0 Erdeck suture, and atrial wall was sutured also when rectal temperature reached from 24`C to 35.5`C. Complete A-V block was managed with temporary external pacemaker with a pacing rate of 110/min. thru myocardial wire, and arterial blood pressure of 80/50 mmHg was maintained with Isuprel or Dopamine dripping under the CVP of 25-cm saline. Consciousness was recovered one hour after the operation when his blood pressure reached 100 /70 mmHg, but vital signs were not stable, and bleeding from the pericardial drainage and complete anuria were persisted until his heart could not capture the pacemaker impulse, and patient died of low output syndrome 320 min after the operation.

Background The stenosis of the coronary artery may decrease myocardial oxygen supply and occur myocardial ischemia or infarction. Soojeomsan, one of analgesics is generally regarded to have the effect of vitalizing blood, expelling blood stasis and alleviation cardiac pain. Methods The purpose of this experimental study is to find the influence of Soojeomsan on cardiac enzyme (CPK, Na-K ATPase) of ischemic and reperfused rat hearts which are isolated under the Langendorff apparatus. Ischemia was induced In isolated hearts of Sprague-Dawley rats by ceasing the perfusion for 20 minutes. The experiments were divided into a normal saline orally administered group(control group), a Soojeomsan orally 20ml administered group(sample A) and a Soojeomsan orally 30ml administered group(sample B). The CPK (creatinine phosphokinase) and Na-K ATPase activity of this three group were measured and compared in order to assess the influence of Soojeomsan on protection of isolated rat hearts from ischemia. Results 1. CPK was significantly reduced in Sample A group and Sample B group in comparison with control group in reperfusion(P<0.01), and there were no significant difference between Sample A and B. 2. Na-K ATPase activity was significantly increased in Sample A group and Sample B group in comparison with control group in ischemia(P<0.001), and the activity was significantly higher in Sample B then in Sample A.(P<0.01) 3. There were no significant difference in Na-K ATPase activity of the three groups after reperfusion. Conclusion Soojeomsan has effects to decrease CPK activity and activate Na pump. This result in protection of the myocardium of isolated rat hearts from ischemia.

Objective: To investigate the diagnostic performance of CT fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) for myocardial bridging-related ischemia using dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT-MPI) as a reference standard. Materials and Methods: Dynamic CT-MPI and coronary CT angiography (CCTA) data obtained from 498 symptomatic patients were retrospectively reviewed. Seventy-five patients (mean age ± standard deviation, 62.7 ± 13.2 years; 48 males) who showed myocardial bridging in the left anterior descending artery without concomitant obstructive stenosis on the imaging were included. The change in CT-FFR across myocardial bridging (ΔCT-FFR, defined as the difference in CT-FFR values between the proximal and distal ends of the myocardial bridging) in different cardiac phases, as well as other anatomical parameters, were measured to evaluate their performance for diagnosing myocardial bridging-related myocardial ischemia using dynamic CT-MPI as the reference standard (myocardial blood flow < 100 mL/100 mL/min or myocardial blood flow ratio ≤ 0.8). Results: ΔCT-FFR_systolic (ΔCT-FFR calculated in the best systolic phase) was higher in patients with vs. without myocardial bridging-related myocardial ischemia (median [interquartile range], 0.12 [0.08-0.17] vs. 0.04 [0.01-0.07], p < 0.001), while CT-FFR_systolic (CT-FFR distal to the myocardial bridging calculated in the best systolic phase) was lower (0.85 [0.81-0.89] vs. 0.91 [0.88-0.96], p = 0.043). In contrast, ΔCT-FFR_diastolic (ΔCT-FFR calculated in the best diastolic phase) and CT-FFR_diastolic (CT-FFR distal to the myocardial bridging calculated in the best diastolic phase) did not differ significantly. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that ΔCT-FFR_systolic had largest area under the curve (0.822; 95% confidence interval, 0.717-0.901) for identifying myocardial bridging-related ischemia. ΔCT-FFR_systolic had the highest sensitivity (91.7%) and negative predictive value (NPV) (97.8%). ΔCT-FFR_diastolic had the highest specificity (85.7%) for diagnosing myocardial bridging-related ischemia. The positive predictive values of all CT-related parameters were low. Conclusion: ΔCT-FFR_systolic reliably excluded myocardial bridging-related ischemia with high sensitivity and NPV. Myocardial bridging showing positive CT-FFR results requires further evaluation.

배경: 좌심실 기능의 평가는 대개 심초음파를 이용하여 시행되고 있으나, 최근 개발된 16채널 Multi-detector 컴퓨터 단층촬영(MDCT)은 관상동맥에 대한 평가뿐만 아니라 좌심실 기능의 측정이 가능하다. 따라서 MDCT를 이용한 측정결과를 심초음파 결과와 비교분석하여 MDCT의 좌심실 기능 평가에 대한 임상적 적용 가능성을 조사해 보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2003년 11월 1일부터 2005년 1월 31일까지 본원에서 MDCT를 시행한 49명의 환자중 동일시기에 심초음파를 시행한 26명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 이완기말 좌심실 용적지수(LVEDVI), 수축기말 좌심실 용적지수(LVESVI), 심박출량지수(SVI), 좌심실 부피지수(LVMI) 및 심박출계수(EF)를 조사하였다. 결과: 평균이완기말 좌심실 용적지수($80.86{\pm}34.69mL$ for MDCT vs $60.23{\pm}29.06mL$ for Echocardiography, p<0.01), 평균수축기말 좌심실 용적지수($37.96{\pm}24.32mL$ for MDCT vs $25.68{\pm}16.57ml$ for Echocardiography, p<0.01), 평균심박출량지수($42.90{\pm}15.86mL$ for MDCT vs $34.54{\pm}17.94mL$ for Echocardiography, p<0.01), 평균좌심실 부피지수($72.14{\pm}25.35mL$ for MDCT vs $130.35{\pm}53.10mL$ for Echocardiography, p<0.01) 및 평균심박출계수($55.63{\pm}12.91mL$ for MDCT vs $59.95{\pm}12.75mL$ for Echocardiography, p<0.05)로 양군간에 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 평균이완기말 좌심실 용적지수, 평균수축기말 좌심실 용적지수, 평균심박출량지수는 MDCT군이 높게 나타났으며, 평균좌심실 부피지수, 평균심박출계수는 심초음파군이 높게 나타났다. 각 변수에서 양군의 상관관계를 보면, 이완기말 좌심실 용적지수$(r^2=0.74,\;p<0.0001)$, 수축기말 좌심실 용적지수$(r^2=0.69,\; p<0.0001)$, 심박출량지수$(r^2=0.55,\;p<0.0001)$는 높은 상관관계를 보였으며, 좌심실 부피지수$(r^2=0.84,\;p<0.0001)$는 아주 높은 상관관계를, 심박출계수$(r^2=0.45,\;p<0.0002)$는 다소 높은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 결론: 16채널 MDCT를 이용한 좌심실 용적 및 기능의 평가는 심초음파의 결과와 비교하여 높은 상관관계를 보여 유용한 검사방법으로 생각된다 그러나, 각 항목의 평균값에서는 유의한 차이를 보여 임상적 적용을 위하여는 양 검사의 절대적 결과치를 병용하여 사용할 수는 없을 것으로 생각되며, 향후 MDCT의 기술적 개발을 고려할 때 관상동맥 환자에 있어 관상동맥의 협착의 검사와 함께 좌심실 기능의 측정도 함께 간편하게 이루어질 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

심근관류 스캔에서 부하영상에 비해 휴식영상에서 오히려 심근관류가 감소되어 보이는 현상을 역재분포라고 하며, 심근관류 스캔시 드물지 않게 관찰되나 아직 이 현상의 기전이나 의미는 확실히 밝혀진 바 없다. 이에 저자들은 디피리다몰부하 T1-201 및 Tc-99m MIBI 심근관류 SPECT에서 역재분포현상의 존재 유무를 알아보고, 또 이 현상이 어떤 경우에 나오는지 그 내용을 파악하기 위하여 1992년 9월부터 1994년 1월까지 전남대학교병원 핵의학과에서 시행하였던 심근관류 SPECT를 시행한 1462명을 대상으로 본 연구를 시행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 대상환자 1462명중 168명(11.5%)에서 역재분포를 보였으며, T1-201을 사용한 환자는 463명 중 44명(9.5%), Tc-99m MIBI를 사용한 환자는 999명 중124명(12.4%)에서 역재분포를 보였다. T1-201 및 Tc-99m MIBI를 사용한 양군간에 역재분포 빈도수는 통계학적 유의한 차이는 없었다(p>0.05). 2) 심근관류 SPECT상 역재분포를 보였던 168명 중 관동맥조영술로 확진된 65명(T1-201 21예, Tc-99m MIBI 44예)을 질환별 분류를 하였다. T1-201과 Tc-99m MIBI를 사용한 모든 환자에서 재혈관화후 (53.9%), 관동맥질환(24.6%, 재혈관화후 및 심근경색 제외), 심근경색(12.3%) 그리고 정상 관동맥(9.2%) 순으로 관찰되었으며, T1-201 및 Tc-99m MIBI 양군간에 질병양상에 따른 통계학적 유의한 차이는 없었다. 3) 역재분포를 보인 부위를 좌심실 전벽, 중격, 하벽, 측벽 및 심첨부로 나누어 분석해 보면, 중격 32(39.5%), 하벽 24(29.6%), 전벽 12(14.8%), 심첨부 7(8.7%), 그리고 측벽 6(7.4%)의 순으로 나타났다. 4) 관동맥협착의 정도와 역재분포 빈도와의 상관관계를 알아보기 위하여, 역재분포를 보인 부위와 관련된 관동맥분지 30개를 협착정도별로 분류하였다. 협착의 정도와 역재분포의 빈도와는 상관관계를 보이지 않았으며, T1-201과 Tc-99m MIBI군 사이에도 분포의 차이가 없었다. 역재분포를 보인 부위와 관련된 관동맥 분지별로 보면 좌전하행동맥이 18예로 가장 많았고, 다음 이 우관동맥(10예), 좌회선동맥(4예)순이었다. 5) 역재분포를 보인 환자중 좌심실의 벽운동성을 관찰할 수 있었던 27명의 환자 중 12명은 정상벽운동, 12명은 저운동, 그리고 3명에서 이운동 소견을 보였다. 6) 역재분포를 보인 부위에 측부혈행 유무를 관찰 할 수 있었던 30예 중 측부혈행이 있었던 예는 4예에 불과하였다. 7) T1-201 심근관류 SPECT시 휴식기 T1-201 재주사를 시행한 14예 중 재주사에 의해 역재분포 부위에 섭취 증가를 보인 예는 10예였다. 결론적으로, 역재분포는 여러가지 병태생리적인 기전에 의해 나타날 수 있는 소견으로 보이며, 그 임상적 의의는 심근관류검사를 시행한 환자의 병력에 따라 판단하여야 할 것으로 사료되었다.

Background : The stenosis of the coronary artery results in a decrease in the myocardial oxygen supply, ischemia and infarction. Jakamchotang as a drug of liquid is generally regarded to have the effect of arrythmia, palpitation from Heart disease and promoting the flow of Ki and Blood. Methods : The purpose of this experimental study is to find whether Jakamchotang is effective or not in curing ischemia in isolated perfused rat hearts and to measure the degree of its curing effect. In this study, under the Langendorff apparatus, ischemia was induced in isolated Sprague-Dawley rat hearts by ceasing the perfusion for 20 minites. Subjects were divided into a normal saline orally administered group(control group), an Jakamchotang orally 100mg administered group (sample A), an Jakamchotang orally 300mg administered group (sample B), and an Jakamchotang injection perfused group(sample C). The heart rates, left ventricular pressure, myocardial dilatation/contraction, cardiac perfusion flow and cardiac ezyme(LDH, CPK) of the four group were measured and compared in order to assess the influence of Jakamchotang on isolated perfused rat hearts recovering abillity from ischemia and infarction. results : 1. Heart rates were increased significantly in Jakamchotang orally 100mg administered group, Jakamchotang orally 300mg administered group and Jakamchotang injection perfused group on perfusion and reperfusion(p<0.01). 2. Left ventricular pressure were increased significantly in Jakamchotang orally 100mg administered group and 300mg administered and Jakamchotang injection perfused group(p<0.01) in comparison with control group on perfusion, but every group did not significant on reperfusion. 3. While there were no differances in each group's abillities of myocardial dilatation, the ability of myocardial constriction of Jakamchotang 100mg administered group only on perfusion was significantly greater than that of control group(p<0.05). 4. CBF was no significant on perfusion and reperfusion in comparison with control group(N.S.) 5. LDH was not significantly decreased on perfusion, but significactly decreased in Jakamchotang orally 100mg administered group, Jakamchotang orally 300mg administered group on reperfusion. 6. CPK was significantly decreased in Jakamchotang orally 100mg administered group, 300mg administered and Jakamchotang injection perfused group on perfusion(p<0.01), but was not significantly in Jakamchotang 300mg administered group only on reperfusion(P<0.05) Conclusion : According to the result above, Jakamchotang have an effect to recover in the isolated perfused rat hearts. Especially, the effect of Jakamchotang in orally adminstered group is greater than that of Jakamchotang injection perfused group on preischemia. The followings are the two important results of this study: First, the effect of Jakamchotang used traditionally on heart disease was proved statistcally under the Langendorff apparatus. Second, on the basis of this study, the effect of other type medications on myocardial ischemia can be evaluted in further studies.

휴식/부하 Rb-82 PET으로 평가한 심근혈류와 부하/휴식 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT 심근혈류평가소견을 비교하였다. 관상동맥질환에 이환된 23명의 환자와 6명의 정상인에서 휴식기 Rb-82 PET을 촬영한후 디피리다몰 부하를 가하면서 Rb-82 PET을 촬영하고 Rb-82주사와 동시에 주사한 Tc-99m-MIBI의 SPECT를 1시간 후 촬영하였다. 4시간 후에는 휴식기 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT 촬영을 하였다. 수직, 수평장축과 세 단축상에서 29개의 분절들의 관류점수를 정상부터 결손까지 5개 등급으로 나누어 점수판정하고 동맥영역별 점수는 합산한 값을 영역의 점수로 삼았는데 점수 2점인 분절이 둘 이상 또는 3점인 분절이 하나이상일 때 해당 관상동맥의 협착이 유의하다고 보았다. 46개의 동맥영역이 협착된 동맥에 의해 혈류공급을 받는 심근인데 이중 78%가 Rb-82 PET에서 확인되었고, 67%가 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT에 이상을 나타냈다. 12명환자는 CABG 수술후의 환자였는데 이환동맥 28개 영역 중 14 영역이 Rb-82와 Tc-99m-MIBI에 모두 정상으로 판명되었다. 부하기심근분절은 모두 709 분절이 비교가능하였는데 이중 Rb-82와 Tc-99m-MIBI 분절혈류점수가 일치한 것이 72%이었고 휴식기 825 분절중에는 80%가 점수등급이 일치하였다. 휴식기 Rb-82 혈류점수가 Tc-99m-MIBI 보다 작은 경우가 9%, 큰 경우가 11%이었고 부하기 Rb-82 점수가 Tc-99m-MIBI보다 작은 경우가 9%, 큰 경우가 20%이었다. Spearman의 순서상관 분석에 Rb-82 PET의 분절점수와 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT의 분절점수 사이에 구한 상관계수 rho는 부하기에는 0.7(p<0.005), 휴식기에는 0.5(p<0.005) 이었다. 기울기는 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT 분절점수/Rb-82 PET분절점수로 표현한 상관기울기는 부하기 0.7, 휴식기에 0.9이었다. 좌전하행동맥영역의 기울기는 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT/Rb-82 PET 분절점수비로서 1보다 컸고 46동맥중에서 7동맥영역이 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT 에서 휴식기 결손의 정도가 심했다. 부하기와 휴식기의 점수의 차가 허혈정도를 나타낸다 할 때 Rb-82 PET에 더 크게 나타났다. 이 심근분절혈류감소 비교 결과로 보아 Rb-82 심관관류 PET 검사가 하루안에 시행하는 부하/휴식순서의 Tc-99m-MIBI 심관관류, SPECT 보다 더 큰 허혈부위를 찾아주며, 부하 4시간후 휴식기 Tc-99m-MIBI SPECT에 휴식기 Rb-82 PET 보다 더 큰 결손이 관찰됨을 알았다.
