과호산구 증후군은 특별한 원인없이 호산구가 1,500/㎣ 이상의 호산구 증가증이 6개월 이상 지속되고 다양한 기관의 침범으로 인한 증상과 증후를 보이는 질환이다. 본 저자들은 흉부 불쾌감을 주소로 내원한 환자에서 과호산구 증후군의 합병증의 일종으로 다발성 뇌경색과 급성 호산구성 심근염으로 나타난 1예를 체험하여 문헌고찰과 함께 보고한다. The hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a leukoproliferative disorder, marked by sustained blood eosinophilia of greater than 1,500/㎣, for longer than 6 months and predilection to damage specific oragans. Any organ system may be affected in HES, but the most severe clinicopathophysio-logical involvements are of the heart and nervous system. We report a case of a 48-year-old man with acute eosinophilic myocarditis combined with hypereosinophilic syndrome who was successfully treated with steroids.

정맥내 평활근종증은 병리학적으로는 양성 질환이나 진행 양상은 악성으로 모든 종양의 적출술이 시행되어야 하며, 자궁적출술시 병리학적으로 정맥내 평활근종증을 진단받은 경우 정기적인 검사를 통해 종양의 재발이나 하대정맥과 심장내로의 연장을 확인하여야 한다. 우측 심장내 종양이 발견된 경우는 점액종을 포함한 원발성 심내 종양 외에도 다른 원인 질환을 확인하여야 하며, 반드시 정맥내 평활근종증을 감별진단하여야 한다. Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare benign vascular tumor defined as the extension into venous channels of a histologically benign smooth muscle tumor arising either from a uterus or from the walls of uterine vessels, and about 10% spread to the heart. The treatment of choice is complete resection of the tumor. Hormonal therapy should be considered in cases of unresectable residual tumor. A 46-year-old woman was admitted for abdominal discomfort and pain. She was found to have intravenous leiomyomatosis of the uterus with extension into inferior vena cava and right atrium. The patient underwent surgery employing simultaneous sternotomy and laparotomy. Radical excision was achieved using cardiopulmonary bypass. We herein describe a patient in whom complete removal of intravenous leiomyomatosis with cardiac extension was successfully performed.

We investigated whether deficiency of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) could prevent isoproterenol-induced cardiac hypertrophy in iNOS knockout (KO) mice. Isoproterenol was continuously infused subcutaneously (15 mg/kg/day) using an osmotic minipump. Isoproterenol reduced body weight and fat mass in both iNOS KO and wild-type mice compared with saline-infused wild-type mice. Isoproterenol increased the heart weight in both iNOS KO and wild-type mice but there was no difference between iNOS KO and wild-type mice. Posterior wall thickness of left ventricle showed the same tendency with heart weight. Protein level of iNOS in the left ventricle was increased in isoproterenol-infused wild-type mice. The gene expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and transforming growth factor-Ղ (TGF-Ղ) in isoproterenol-infused wild-type was measured at 2, 4, 24, and 48-hour and isoproterenol increased both IL-6 (2, 4, 24, and 48-hour) and TGF-Ղ (4 and 24-hour). Isoproterenol infusion for 7 days increased the mRNA level of IL-6 and TGF-Ղ in iNOS KO mice, whereas the gene expression in wild-type mice was not increased. Phosphorylated form of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (pERK) was also increased by isoproterenol at 2 and 4-hour but was not increased at 7 days after infusion in wild-type mice. However, the increased pERK level in iNOS KO mice was maintained even at 7 days after isoproterenol infusion. These results suggest that deficiency of iNOS does not prevent isoproterenol- induced cardiac hypertrophy and may have potentially harmful effects on cardiac hypertrophy.

OBJECTIVE:: The impact of exaggerated blood pressure response (EBPR) to exercise on left ventricular function and the mechanism of its association are poorly understood. This study investigated the impact of arterial stiffening on left ventricular function in individuals with an EBPR to exercise. We hypothesized that individuals with low pulse pressure (PP) amplification during exercise would have worse left ventricular function than those with high PP amplification in individuals with an EBPR to exercise. METHODS:: Fifty-nine individuals with an EBPR to exercise (18 men, age 57 ± 12 years) and 59 age and sex-matched controls were studied. Radial artery tonometry was performed at rest and immediately after exercise during supine bicycle exercise echocardiography. RESULTS:: There were no differences in left ventricular structure or function between individuals with an EBPR to exercise and controls. When individuals with an EBPR to exercise were divided into two groups on the basis of PP amplification after exercise [Group 1 (n = 30), high PP amplification after exercise; Group 2 (n = 29), low PP amplification after exercise], group 2 showed larger left atrial volume and lower early diastolic (e’) and systolic (S’) mitral annular velocities. Left ventricular apical rotation was also exaggerated in group 2. In multiple regression, PP amplification after exercise was an independent determinant of e’ (&bgr; = 0.16, P = 0.019) and S’ (&bgr; = 0.25, P = 0.009) in individuals with an EBPR to exercise. CONCLUSION:: In individuals with an EBPR to exercise, the degree of left ventricular dysfunction is variable. EBPR to exercise in the presence of arterial stiffening contributes to the deterioration of left ventricular function.

<P><B>Background—</B></P><P>The aim of this study is to explore the differential effect of 3-dimensional color Doppler echocardiography for the quantification of mitral regurgitation (MR). Two-dimensional color Doppler echocardiography–based MR quantification has well-documented limitations.</P><P><B>Methods and Results—</B></P><P>We consecutively enrolled 221 patients with MR. Adequate image quality was obtained by 2D- and 3D-color Doppler echocardiography in 211 (95.5%) patients. The quantitative differences between the MR volumes obtained by 2D- and 3D-proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) were analyzed in various MR subgroups. In the validation cohort (n=52), MR volume obtained by 3D-PISA showed a better agreement with phase-contrast cardiac MRI than 2D-PISA (<I>r</I>=0.97 versus 0.84). In all 211 patients, 2D-PISA underestimated the MR volume when compared with 3D-PISA (52.4±19.6 versus 59.5±25.6 mL; <I>P</I>=0.005). A total of 33.3% with severe MR based on 3D-PISA were incorrectly assessed by 2D-PISA as having nonsevere MR. In the subgroup analysis, the MR severity (odds ratio, 6.96; 95% confidence interval, 3.04–15.94; <I>P</I><0.001) and having an asymmetrical orifice (odds ratio, 11.48; 95% confidence interval, 3.72–35.4; <I>P</I><0.001), and an eccentric jet (odds ratio, 3.82; 95% confidence interval, 1.27–11.48; <I>P</I>=0.017) were predictors of significant difference in MR volume (>15 mL) between 2D- and 3D-PISA methods.</P><P><B>Conclusions—</B></P><P>Quantification of MR by 3D-PISA method is clinically feasible and more accurate than the current 2D-PISA method. MR quantification by 2D-PISA significantly underestimated MR volume with severe, eccentric MR with an asymmetrical orifice. This article demonstrates that 3D-color Doppler echocardiography could be used as a valuable tool to confirm treatment strategy in patients with significant MR.</P>
