배경: 본 연구에서는 미숙아에 있어서 동맥관개존증으로 진단되어 치료받은 례를 대상으로 인도메타진 투여와 외과적 치료를 비교하여 향후 동맥관개존증의 치료 방향을 설정하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 1994년 4월 부터 1997년 4월까지 신생아 중환자실에 입원하여 동맥관개존증으로 진단을 받은 환아 45명을 대상으로 임상기록지를 관찰하였다. 39명의 환아가 인도메타진 투여를 받았으며, 그중 12명이 인도메타진 치료의 실패(5명)나 합병증(7명)으로 수술적 결찰술을 받았다. 6명은 인도메타진의 비적응증으로 인해 일차적수술을 받았으며, 이들 모두 1500 gm이하였다. 결과: 인도메타진 투여의 실패율은 43%(17/39)였으며 1500 gm이하 환아들에서 그 실패율이 높았다. 인도메타진의 합병증은 39명중 13명(33%)의 환아에서 발생하였으며 향후 치료 경과나 사망률에 나쁜 인자로 작용하였다. 모든 경우에 있어 수술 및 마취와 관련된 합병증 및 사망 경우는 없었으며, 수술 받은 환아의 사망률은 50%로 높았으나 이는 인도메타진의 비적응증 및 그 합병증에 해당하는 술전 환아상태와 밀접한 관계가 있었다. 결론: 상기 결과로부터 동맥관개존증을 동반한 미숙아의 치료방향을 설정하기에는 어려움이 있으나, 수술적 결찰술을 일차적 치료법으로 고려해야 할 것으로 생각되며, 추후 평가되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Three dogs with suspected patent ductus arteriosus were referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of College of Veterinary Medicine, Konkuk University because of cough, shortness of breath, exercise intolerance, and syncope, Continuous murmur and thrill were detected in physical examination. Left ventricular enlargement, cardiomegaly, bulged main pulmonary artey were found in radiography. Tall R wave, wide P wave, atrial fibrillation, and turbulent flow were observed in electrocardiogram and echocardiogram. Thoracotomy was performed at left fourth intercostal space under isoflurane anesthesia. Patent ductus arteriosus was double ligated with 1-0 silk. The median (mean ${\pm}$ SD) diameter of patents was $8.0{\pm}2.0mm$. The median operation time was $36{\pm}6.6min$. On examination right after surgery, continuous murmur, thrill, atrial fibrillation, and turbulent flow were disappeared. On 30 days after surgery, clinical signs, left ventricular enlargement, and, bulged main pulmonary artery were disappeared. VHS 12.5 and 13.5, R wave 3.3 and 3.0 mV, and P wave 0.05 and 0.05 sec were decreased to 10.0 and 10.5, 1.8 and 2.0 mV, and 0.04 and 0.04 sec respectively in case 1 and 2. Ratio of aorta and main pulmonary artery in diameter was changed 1 : 1.3 and 1 : 1.6 into 1 : 1.1 and 1 : 1 respectively in case 1 and 2. Mild tear developed during dissection in case 3 and hemorrhage was controlled by vascular Devakey forceps. However, the dog died. On 12 months after surgery, patients (case 1 and case 2) have not showed abnormal signs.

With the ligation of a patent ductus arteriosus by Gross in 1938, surgeons first entered the field of congenital heart disease, and treatment of the patent ductus is representative of the rapid advance made in thoracic surgery in the last 40 years. We have had clinical experiences about 36 cases of this in the department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular surgery, Pusan Paik Hospital, Inje medical college from March 1891 to June 1987. And the results were summarized as follows. 1. There were 11 males, 25 females. The age range of the patients were from 8 months to 36 years with the mean age of 7.9 years. 2. The chief complaints of the patients on admission were frequent URI[50%], dyspnea on exertion[29.8%], chest pain[11.1% k 1%], growth retardation[2%], cough[2.8%], anorexia[2.8%]. But there were 11 patients[30.6%] having no subjective symptoms. 3. In auscultation, the usual continuous machinery murmur was noticed in 30 patients[83.3%], only systolic murmur in 6[16.7%]. 4. In the preoperative chest P-A views, there were noticed cardiomegaly in 20 cases, enlarged pulmonary conus and / or pulmonary plethora in 22 patients[61.1%]. 5. In the preoperative EGG findings, there were noticed pattern of LVH in 8 patients[22.2`], RVH in 2[5.6%], BVH in 4[11.5%] and normal in 19[52.89o]. 6. The size of PDA[mean] was 9.5 mm[length] and 8.8 mm[width], the range of length was from 4 to 29 mm and the range of width was from 4 to 18 mm. 7. There were noticed 6 cases which were combined with other anomalies[VSD in 2 cases, Coarctation of aorta in 2, Mitral regurgitation in 1, and AP window in 1]. 8. On operation, simple ligation of the ductus was performed in 30 cases[83.3%], division and suture-ligation in 5[13.9%]. 9. Postoperative complications were noticed in 4 cases[pneumonia in one case, wound infection or disruption in 3], but there were no mortality.

미숙아 동맥관 개존증에 대한 약물 치료로서 mefenamic acid는 널리 사용되고 있는 indomethacin과 같이 효과적으로 생각되며, 더 많은 연구를 통해 치료 효과에 대해 indomethacin과의 비교 분석이 이루어 진다면, 부작용이 경미하고 정확한 정량 사용이 가능하기 때문에, indomethacin대신 미숙아 동맥관 개존증 치료제로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

동맥관 개존증(PDA)은 동맥관의 불완전한 폐쇄로 인해 하행 대동맥과 폐동맥 사이에 비정상적인 단락이 형성된 것이다. 최근 인간의 유전자 연구에서 전사인자 AP-2 beta(TFAP2B)의 유전자 변이가 PDA 증후적 사례를 초래함을 발견하였다. TFAP2B 유전자의 변이는 사람의 PDA와 같은 특정 선천성 심장 기형과 관련되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 PDA에 이환된 개의 유전자 스크리닝을 하기 위해 개 TFAP2B유전자의 전체 exon 부위를 분리하였다. 개 TFAP2B유전자는 사람의 TFAP2B와 아미노산 서열이 매우 유사하였다. PDA에 이환된 말티즈견의 TFAP2B유전자 스크리닝에서 단일 c.936+203G>A 염기 변화가 발견되었다. 그러나 대조군의 유전자 스크리닝에서도 동일한 염기 변화가 발견되었다. 이 염기의 변화는 인트론 지역에 위치해 있었으며 이환되지 않은 대조군 개에서 발견된 것으로 보아 TFAP2B는 말티즈 견의 유전성 PDA와 다른 종의 PDA 환자를 초래하지 않을 것으로 보인다. 향후 더 많은 샘플을 모으고 PDA에 이환된 다양한 종과 다른 선천성 심장 기형을 가진 환축에서 TFAP2B를 스크리닝하는 연구가 필요하다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to share our experience of transcatheter closure of small patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) by using an Amplatzer vascular plug (AVP). Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 20 patients who underwent transcatheter closure at Samsung Medical Center and Sejong General Hospital from January 2008 to August 2012. The size and shape of the PDAs were evaluated by performing angiograms, and the PDA size and the AVP devices size were compared. Results: The mean age of the patients was $54.9{\pm}45.7$ months old. The PDAs were of type C (n=5), type D (n=12), and type E (n=3). The mean pulmonary end diameter of the PDA was $1.7{\pm}0.6$ mm, and the aortic end diameter was $3.6{\pm}1.4$ mm. The mean length was $7.3{\pm}1.8$ mm. We used 3 types of AVP devices: AVP I (n=5), AVP II (n=7), and AVP IV (n=8). The ratio of AVP size to the pulmonary end diameter was $3.37{\pm}1.64$, and AVP size/aortic end ratio was $1.72{\pm}0.97$. The aortic end diameter was significantly larger in those cases repaired with AVP II than in the others (P=0.002). The AVP size did not significantly correlate with the PDA size, but did correlate with smaller ratio of AVP size to aortic end diameter ($1.10{\pm}0.31$, P=0.032). Conclusion: Transcatheter closure of small PDA with AVP devices yielded satisfactory outcome. AVP II was equally effective with smaller size of device, compared to others.

Purpose: Transcatheter device closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is challenging in early infancy. We evaluated PDA closure in infants less than 6 months old. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of infants less than 6 months of age who underwent attempted transcatheter device closure in our institution since 2004. To compare clinical outcomes between age groups, infants aged 6-12 months in the same study period were reviewed. Results: A total of 22 patients underwent transcatheter PDA closure during the study period. Patient mean age was $3.3{\pm}1.5months$, and weight was $5.7{\pm}1.3kg$. The duct diameter at the narrowest point was $3.0{\pm}0.8mm$ as measured by angiography. The most common duct type was C in the Krichenko classification. Procedural success was achieved in 19 patients (86.3%). Major complications occurred in 5 patients (22.7%), including device embolization (n=1), acquired aortic coarctation (n=2), access-related vascular injury requiring surgery (n=1), and acute deterioration requiring intubation during the procedure (n=1). Two patients had minor complications (9.1%). Twenty-four infants aged 6-12 months received transcatheter device closure. The procedural success rate was 100%, and there were no major complications. The major complication rate was significantly higher in the group less than 6 months of age (P=0.045). There was a trend toward increased major complication and procedural failure rates in the younger age group (P<0.01). Conclusion: A relatively higher incidence of major complications was observed in infants less than 6 months of age. The decision regarding treatment modality should be individualized.

Anomalous origin of right pulmonary artery from ascending aorta is a rare congenital heart disease. We experienced a case of anomalous origin of right pulmonary artery from ascending aorta with associated patent ductus arteriosus and patent foramen ovale, which was diagnosed by angiocardiography and cardiac catheterization. The ductus was ligated just before bypass, and a Dacron-graft with a diameter of 16 mm was interpolated posteriorly to the aorta between the right pulmonary artery and the pulmonary trunk. The postoperative course was uneventful. The right heart catheterization and right ventriculography performed on postoperative twelfth day revealed widely patent anastomotic site between the right pulmonary artery and the pulmonary trunk without residual stenosis. She was discharged on postoperative fourteenth day.
