Subannular aortic aneurysm is a word-wide rare disease entity occurring predominantly in young black men. In Korea, there has been no report. We report one patient, 46 years old man, who had been operated urgently because of acute aortic insufficiency and aortic valvular vegetation after antibiotics treatment of Subacute bacterial endocarditis for 6wks. At the operative field, We found the bulging aneurysmal mass between the aorta and superior vena cava above the right pulmonary artery, which has subannular communicating opening into the left ventricular cavity, beneath the anterior commissure of the bicuspid aortic valve. Pathologic findings are consistent with "portion of vascular wall with features of aneurysm.* The patients survived aortic valve replacement and patch closure of subannular aneurysm, with no symptoms at one-year postoperative follow-up.w-up.

A 6-year-old female Maltese dog (body weight 2.0 kg) was referred to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Kangwon National University with primary complaints including exercise intolerance and heart murmur. Based on clinical and diagnostic findings including grade V/VI left basal continuous murmur, bounding femoral pulsation, left ventricular enlargement pattern in electrocardiogram, cardiomegaly with aortic bulging on the thoracic radiography, and shunt flow between aorta and pulmonary artery on the echocardiography, the dog was diagnosed as the left-to-right patent ductus arteriosus. The patent ductus arteriosus was successfully treated by lodging a single embolization coil with transjugular approach.

A 3-year-old, intact female, Shih-tzu dog was presented with a 15-day history of vomiting,depression, and anorexia. On physical examination, systolic ejection murmurs with precordial thril atthe left heart base were detected. A diagnosis of congenital pulmonic stenosis (PS) was made mainlyfrom the thoracic radiography, electrocardiography, and echocardiography. On complete blood counts andconfirmed that main pulmonary artery was tremendously buldged and electrocardiography was suggestiveof severe right ventricular hypertrophy. Echocardiographic findings revealed the pulmonic valve stenosiscontaining valvular dysplasia and poststenotic dilation. On Doppler echocardiography, ejection velocityof the lesion accounted for 3.38 m/sec, meaning mild velocity through the stenotic area. The dog'sproblem and resulted in death. However, there has been no reliable relation between PS and CRF. Primarymalformation of pulmonic valve was confirmed at necropsy after death.

Between July, 19S4. and July, 1987, 9 two-stage repair of symptomatic tetralogy of Fallot were carried out at the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, Kyungpook national university hospital. Their age ranged from 5 years to 18 years [mean age 9.4 years] at the time of total correction, and there were improvement of systemic oxygen saturation values by 10% and decrease of hemoglobin by 1.6gm/dl after shunt procedures. The interval between the initial shunting procedure and total correction ranged for 7 to 101 months with a mean of 32.7 months. Four of these patients required patching of the infundibulum alone, three required patching of the right ventricular outflow tract across the pulmonary annulus, and valved conduit was used in one due to coronary artery anomaly. Aortic cross clamping time averaged 122.2minutes [range from 60minutes to 150minutes], and cardiopulmonary bypass time averaged 174.4 minutes [range from 80minutes to 300minutes]. The operative mortality rate was 22% [2/9].

One hundred and fourteen patients were underwent cardiovascular operation from the 11th June 1985 to 12th July 1988 in the department of cardiovascular surgery of Seoul District Hospital. There were one hundred and one open heart surgery patients and thirteen non-open heart surgery patients. Of open heart surgery cases, seventy-four were acyanotic, twenty four were cyanotic congenital heart disease and three were acquired valvular heart disease. VSD was most common[55 cases] among acyanotic group and TOF[21 cases] was most common among cyanotic group. Of non-open heart patients, there were eleven cases of PDA and two cases of shunt[modified Blalock-Taussig shunt using PTFE graft] for TOF. There were one operative death[0.9%] due to inadequate relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction and peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis for TOF patient. No Patients were dead during follow-up.

호흡곤란을 주소로 46세 여자 환자가 내원하여, 윤상 심막 석회화에 의한 좌심실 이완장애와 우심실 유출로 협착을 진단받았다. 수술장 소견상 윤상으로 심하게 석회화 띠가 폐동맥 기시부와 좌심실 중간 부위를 지나고 있었으며 이외의 심막은 경도의 섬유화만이 관찰되었다. 수술은 체외순환하에 시행하였고 환자는 특별한 합병증 없이 회복되었으며 심막 석회화의 원인은 찾을 수 없었다.

Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in monkeys is very rare. A 9-year-old male Japanese macaque (Macaca fuscata) had an hourglass-shaped PDA with a large luminal diameter. Morphological analysis of the vessel cast and heart revealed cardiovascular pathological changes including pulmonary artery hypertension and right ventricular hypertrophy. However, left ventricle hypertrophy or left atrial enlargement were not observed. This macaque had showed no clinical signs of PDA during its lifetime. We present the first documented case of solitary PDA in a male macaque.

Prolapse of the aortic valve is the main cause of insufficiency of the aortic valve as a complication of ventricular septal defect. Aortic insufficiency gets worse by the progress of prolapse of aortic valve due to lack of support of the valve and the hemodynamic effect of blood flow through the ventricular septal defect. This produces typical clinical picture, that may be serious and threatening when it is untreated. Type and timing for the surgical treatment of the ventricular septal defect with aortic insufficiency is considered. Among 113 ventricular septal defect, 9 patients of ventricular septal defect with associated aortic insufficiency were experienced from June. 1983 to June 1988 at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Chon-Buk University Hospital. Male was 6 patients and female was 3 patients. Ages were from 7 years to 24years. 5 patients were from 10 to 19 years age. 3 patients were below 10 years age. The ratio of pulmonary blood flow to systemic f low [Qp/Qs] was 1.53 and in pulmonary vascular resistance, normal or slight increase was 7 patients, moderate 1 patient, and severe 1 patient. Ventricular septal defect was subpulmonic in 5 patients and infracristal in 4 patients. Prolapse of right coronary cusp was 7 patients, right and non coronary cusp 1 patient and non coronary cusp 1 patient. Teflon patch closure of ventricular septal defect was undertaken in 3 patients and primary closure in 1 patient. Among the 4 patients of defect closure alone, one patient performed valve replacement 7 months later due to progressive regurgitation and cardiac failure and the result was good. The other 3 patients were good result. Closure of ventricular septal defect and aortic valvuloplasty performed in 4 patients. 2 patients of these required valve replacement for the sudden intractable cardiac failure and died due to low cardiac output. The cause of intractable cardiac failure was tearing of repaired valve at the fixed site. The other 2 patients were good result. Closure of ventricular septal defect and valve replacement performed in 1 patient with good result.

배경: 심방중격결손증은 선천성심질환중 가장 흔한 질환중의 하나이며 성인에서 진단되는 선천성 심질환 의 30%를 차지한다. 상당수의 환자들이 성인이 될때까지 별다른 증상이 없이 잘 지내기도 하고, 40∼50대에 사망 하는 경우가 많지만, 더 오래 사는 경우도 흔히 발견된다. 가장 흔한 사망원인은 주로 우심부전이나 부정맥이다. 대상 및 방법: 강북삼성병원 흉부외과에서는 1988년부터 1997년 6월까지 총33례의 심방중격결손증을 수술 하였으며, 그중 31례가 성인 심방중격결손증이었다. 동반질환은 삼첨판 폐쇄부전이 2례, 폐동맥판 협착증, 승모판 폐쇄부전 및 삼첨판 폐쇄부전, 그리고 관상동맥질환이 각각 1례였다. 결과: 모든환자에서 첩포봉합술이나 직접봉합술을 이용하여 수술하였으며, 수술후 경과는 모두 양호하였다. 수술후 심전도와 혈류역학, 및 심초음파검사상 호전을 보였다. 결론: 성인의 심방중격결손증은 60세이상의 고령일지라도 폐동맥고혈압이나 우심부전, 부정맥등을 예방 하기 위한 적극적인 외과교정술을 시행하여야 한다
