Abstract
Central venous catheterization is a common diagnostic and therapeutic procedure in modern clinical practice. Pseudoaneurysms of the subclavian artery are rare and usually occur immediately after the causative event, whether the cause was trauma or a medical procedure. Here, we report a case of a 71-year-old woman with delayed presentation of catheter-related subclavian pseudoaneurysm. The patient’s symptoms began two weeks after the initial catheterization, probably because of slow leakage of blood from the injured subclavian artery caused by incomplete compression of the puncture site and uremic coagulopathy. She was successfully treated with ultrasound-guided thrombin and angiography-guided histoacryl injection without stent insertion or surgery.
Keywords: butyl 2-cyanacrylate; pseudoaneurysm; subclavian; thrombin.

Abstract
Cystic adenomatoid malformation (CAM) is a congenital disorder similar to bronchopulmonary sequestration. Most cases of CAM are diagnosed during the neonatal period and infancy. The histological classification of the vast majority of reported cases of CAM is Stocker's Type I. We present an adult patient with Stocker's Type II CAM with active tuberculosis.

Abstract
The mechanism of forward blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) remains controversial. We hypothesized that, if the heart acts as a pump, the proximal descending thoracic aorta would be distended during compression by forward blood flow, and would be constricted or remained unchanged if blood flow is generated by increased intrathoracic pressure. Fourteen patients with nontraumatic cardiac arrest underwent transesophageal echocardiography to verify changes in the descending thoracic aorta during standard manual CPR. The aortic dimensions, including cross-sectional area and diameter at the end of compression and relaxation, were measured proximal to, and at the maximal compression site of the descending thoracic aorta. At the maximal compression site, deformation of the descending thoracic aorta was observed during compression in all patients and the ratio of maximal to minimal diameter of the aorta (deformation ratio) decreased during compression compared with relaxation (0.58+/-0.15 vs. 0.81+/-0.11, P=0.001). This suggests eccentric compression of the descending thoracic aorta by external chest compression. The deformation ratio of the descending thoracic aorta proximal to the maximal compression site remained unchanged during compression and relaxation (1.0+/-0.88 vs. 1.0+/-0.9, P=0.345). The cross-sectional area of the descending thoracic aorta proximal to the maximal compression site increased 15% on average during compression compared with relaxation in 12 of 14 patients. In conclusion, deformation of the aorta at the maximal compression site and increase in the cross-sectional area of the proximal aorta suggests that cardiac pumping is the dominant mechanism in generating forward blood flow during CPR in humans.

Abstract
No existing device for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is designed to exploit both the "cardiac pump" and the "thoracic pump" effect simultaneously. The purpose of this study was to measure the haemodynamic effect of a new simultaneous sternothoracic cardiopulmonary resuscitation (SST-CPR) device that could compress the sternum and constrict the thoracic cavity simultaneously in a canine cardiac arrest model. After 4 min of ventricular fibrillation, 24 mongrel dogs were randomized to receive standard CPR (n=12) or SST-CPR (n=12). SST-CPR generated a new pattern of the aortic pressure curve presumed to be the result of both sternal compression and thoracic constriction. SST-CPR resulted in significantly higher mean arterial pressure than standard CPR (68.9+/-16.1 vs. 30.5+/-10.0 mmHg, P<0.01). SST-CPR generated higher coronary perfusion pressure than standard CPR (47.0+/-11.4 vs. 17.3+/-8.9 mmHg, P<0.01). End tidal CO(2) tension was also higher during SST-CPR than standard CPR (11.6+/-6.1 vs. 2.17+/-3.3 mmHg, P<0.01). In this preliminary animal model study, simultaneous sternothoracic cardiopulmonary resuscitation generated better haemodynamic effects than standard, closed chest cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Abstract
We describe a first case of successful transcatheter management of guidewire-induced distal coronary artery perforation and impending cardiac tamponade, which developed during percutaneous coronary angioplasty, with transcatheter injection of polyvinyl alcohol form. This method may be an effective alternative in the management of distal coronary artery perforation requiring surgical repair.

Abstract
In normal adults, both blood flow and ventilation are distributed preferentially to the dependent lung zones. In adults with unilateral lung disease, arterial oxygenation improves when they are positioned with their good lung down because of improved matching of ventilation and perfusion. When the closing volume is increased, dependent airways are closed during tidal breathing, so that reduced ventilation-perfusion ratio and hypoxia develops and ventilation is preferentially distributed to the upper lung zones. We undertook an observational study on the effects of lateral recumbency on arterial oxygenation in adult patients with unilateral lung disease and tested the hypothesis that oxygenation in lateral recumbency might be influenced by an increase in closing volume. Arterial blood gases were analyzed in the supine, right and left lateral decubitus positions and the AaPO(2) was calculated in 44 randomly selected patients 49.9 +/- 18.7 yr of age with unilateral pneumonia (23 cases) or pulmonary tuberculosis (21 cases). In 26 patients, individual Pa(O(2)) with the normal lung in the dependent position was higher than that with the diseased lung; the opposite was true for 18 patients. The difference in Pa(O(2)) and AaPO(2) between the two positions was statistically significant in both groups. In 16 patients (10 men and six women 49.2 +/- 18.2 yr of age), we measured closing volume and determined the fractional ventilation to each lung by (133)Xe lung scan in the three positions. In these 16 patients, the difference in Pa(O(2)) between the normal and the diseased lung in the dependent position was related significantly to the difference in the fractional ventilation going to the normal lung between the dependent and the supine position (r = 0.642, p = 0. 007). The latter was related significantly to the % predicted closing volume (CV/VC) (r = -0.597, p = 0.015). This study has shown that closing volume, as well as posture, might be involved in determining oxygenation in lateral recumbency in patients with unilateral lung disease.

Abstract
A 27 yr old man presented with productive cough, fever and manifestations of superior vena cava syndrome. He was an alcoholic but had been in good health until 3 days prior to admission. The physical examination, the chest radiograph and the results of the sputum culture were compatible with Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia of the right upper lobe. The superior vena cava scintigram using technetium-99m showed near total occlusion of the superior vena cava, while sputum cytology, chest computed tomography, and bronchoscopy were all negative for malignant aetiology. Antibiotic therapy brought about slow resolution of the pneumonia and also of the superior vena caval obstruction. The follow-up scintigram showed normalized venous flow of the superior vena cava. To our knowledge, this is the first case of superior vena cava syndrome developed in probable association with Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia.

Abstract
Posttraumatic saccular aneurysm of the right coronary artery is a rare complication of nonpenetrating chest trauma. We observed a posttraumatic coronary aneurysm for 3 years and noted that the aneurysm has changed in shape, with partial obliteration of the aneurysm sac, and that its clinical course was uneventful with conservative treatment. Surgical removal of aneurysms has been advocated in the literature; however, conservative medical treatment and a wait-and-see policy can be considered as a treatment modality for posttraumatic coronary aneurysm.

Abstract
A coronary arteriovenous fistula consists of a communication between a coronary artery and a cardiac chamber, a great artery or the vena cava. It is the most common anomaly that can affect coronary perfusion. Bilateral involvement of coronary fistula, however, constitutes an uncommon subgroup of coronary arteriovenous fistulas. We report a case which shows a rare occurrence of bilateral coronary arteriovenous fistula coexistent with atrial septal defect and pulmonic stenosis.

Abstract
Echocardiographic automatic boundary detection (ABD) is a new on-line technique which automatically outlines the left ventricular endocardial border and instantly calculates the left ventricular area and volume from two dimensional echocardiographic images. To determine if left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) can be derived using the ABD method, 25 consecutive patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, aged 52.1 +/- 15.2 (range 14 approximately 75), underwent complete echocardiographic examination with both the ABD method and radionuclide ventriculography (RVG). End-diastolic and end-systolic left ventricular areas were obtained on-line from the apical four chamber view. Left ventricular length was also measured from an apical view. Left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction were calculated using the single plane area-length method. ABD measurements could be obtained in all patients. Linear regression analysis compared ejection fraction derived by ABD and RVG. The mean radionuclide LVEF was 20.9 +/- 6.8% and mean ABD-derived LVEF was 22.7 +/- 5.8%. Linear regression analysis revealed that the ABD-derived LVEF is closely correlated with the RVG-derived LVEF (r = 0.87, p < 0.001). In conclusion, ABD echocardiography is a new on-line technique which may be used to accurately calculate LVEF in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
We performed this study in order to verify the heart rate decrease caused by the D2-receptor on cardiac sympathetic nerve endings and its relation to the concentration of norepinephrine in synaptic clefts. Sprague-Dawley rats were pithed and the heart rate was increased either by electrical stimulation of the cardiac accelerator nerve or by intravenous infusion of norepinephrine, tyramine, or isoproterenol. Increased heart rate by electrical stimulation of cardiac accelerator nerve was dose-dependently lowered by lisuride and its effect was blocked by pretreatment with sulpiride but not with yohimbine and SCH 23390. Also, the heart rate was decreased in a dose-dependent manner by clonidine and this effect was blocked by pretreatment with yohimbine, but not with sulpiride. For increased heart rate by infusion of norepinephrine, tyramine, or isoproterenol, the heart rate lowering effect of lisuride was more marked in the norepinephrine-and tyramine-infusion groups, in which the intrasynaptic concentration of norepinephrine was elevated, compared to the isoproterenol-infusion group, in which intrasynaptic concentration of norepinephrine was not elevated. In conclusion, there is a D2-receptor on the cardiac sympathetic nerve endings which decreases the heart rate and is different from the presynaptic alpha 2-receptor. Also, the heart rate lowering effect via stimulation of the D2-receptor by lisuride was more marked with increased concentration of norepinephrine in the synaptic cleft.
