2.A Clinical Study on Straight Back Syndrome.
Korean Circulation Journal 1971;1(2):49-57
Six cases with Straight back syndrome were reported and studied by physiological, radiological electrocardiographic, phonocardiographic and echocardiographic evidences. They were classified according to A-P diameter and arch distance as Type I, II, III. by Kim's Consideration. 1. It was noticed that "pancake" configuration of heart with or without LVH in chest PA view with subsequent compression of the heart against the sternum and straight thoracic vertebra in lateral view was revealed. 2. Anterior-posterior diameter, and A-P/T ratio of six patients were below the average value. 3. Grade 2-3/6 ejection type systolic murmurs on pulmonary artery area and lateral sternal border or apex were auscultated, but systolic murmur on apex was considered to be insignificant due to normal mitral valve motion by Echocardiogram. 4. On ECG, there was observed one case with atrial fibrillation and the other with sinus bradycardia who had prominant straight thoracic vertebra. 5. There was observed normal mitrla valve motion on Echocardiogram in all six cases.

Corrected transposition of the great arteries is usually characterized by inverted ventricles and transposition of the great arteries. This combination without cardiac anormalies results in normal arterial oxigen content, hence the term corrected. Unfortunately, the condition rarely exists without other major cardiac anormalies. The authors report a case of situs inversus that was associated with corrected TGA, VSD, PS and ASD. The girl was admitted for evaluation of systolic ejection murmur on the both lower sternal border. Doppler echocardiography and cardiac angiography showed the diagnosis and so valvulotomy and closure operation of VSD and ASD was done.

Interruption of the aortic arch is an uncommon congenital cardiovascular malformation invariably accompanied by other cardiovascular anomalies. This carries a 76% mortality rate in the first month of life. We recently experienced a case of interruption of the aortic arch with patent ductus arteriosus in a 21-year-old man with systolic murmur. he did not showed any other symptoms or signs. Cardiac catheterization with angiography showed interruption of the aortic arch with many systemic arterial collaterals and patent ductus arteriosus.

Aneurysm of the pulmonary artery is a rate entity. A neonate was seen with cyanosis and tachypnea. There was a grade 4/6 systolic murmur along the left sternal border. The chest X-ray showed a round mass shadow in the left parahilar region. Echocardiogram showed large Ventricular Septal Defect and mild Pulmonary Stenosis. The cardiac angiogram showed giant aneurysm of pulmonary artery. Surgical intervention was advised. However, the patient was discharged against operative plan. And the patient died two weeks later.

The hypereosinophilic syndrome consists of peripheral blood eosinophilia of 1500/ mm3 or more without a known cause, plus signs and symptoms of organ eosinophilia. We report a case of hypereosnophilic syndrome with cutaneous manifestation. A 31 year-old female had intermittent fever, sbdominal pain, anemia, systolic murmur, hepatosplenomegaly, cheat discomfort, dry cough without rales, and skin-colored wheal on the trunk. Diagnoais of hypereosinophilic syndrome wss established by clinical findings, marked blood eosinophilia without a known cause, bone marrow aspiration and biopsy, liver scan, and histopsthologic findings of the skin.

A 6 year-old, spayed female, Maltese dog was presented with precordial thrill and mild coughing. Thoracic auscultation revealed a grade V/VI systolic murmur with maximal intensity over the left apex characterized by musical murmur. Echocardiography revealed mild myxomatous degeneration of mitral valve and ruptured chordae tendineae. Musical murmur was produced due to the vibration of ruptured piece of chordae tendineae along with regurgitant flow. After treatment with furosemide and ramipril, clinical signs resolved and precordial thrill reduced. This case report describes typical clinical signs and phonocardiogram of musical murmur in a dog with acute chordae tendineae rupture.

An 11-year-old, castrated male dog presented with a 3-month history of cough and depression. Auscultation revealed systolic murmur and thoracic radiographs showing enlargement of both the atrium and left ventricle. Echocardiography showed thickened mitral valve and moderate-to-severe left atrial enlargement. Additionally, M-mode echocardiography showed symmetric left ventricular wall thickening and systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve, while Doppler imaging revealed high velocity turbulent flow through the left ventricular outflow tract. Based on echocardiography, this case was diagnosed with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. After 5 months, the dog was clinically static in radiography and echocardiography.

Primary pulmonary artery liposarcoma is one of rare tumors originating from pulmonary artery and mimicking pulmonary thromboembolism. The prognosis of primary pulmonary artery sarcoma is poor and we hereby report one case of pathologically proven pulmonary artery liposarcoma. A 57-year-old man presented with progressive dyspnea on exertion for 1 month. Jugular venous pressure was elevated up to 15 cm blood and increased P2 with systolic ejection murmur was heard. Initially, pulmonary thromboembolism was suspected by the signs of right heart failure and multiple perfusion defects on lung perfusion scan. Pulmonary arteriogram and cardiac MRI revealed huge mass obstructing right main pulmonary artery and the mass was partially excised for the improvement of pulmonary arterial blood flow. Tumor cells disclosed vimentin positive cells with abundant vacuolated cytoplasm, which were filled with lipid droplets by electron microscopic examination. Adjunctive radiotherapy was performed after surgery, but the patient died 6 months after discharge.
