Thirty Years Experience of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients with Kawasaki Disease
No full textThis study focused on assessing the clinical outcome of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with Kawasaki disease (KD). Thirty eight patients (mean age, 8.8 years), including 30 male and 8 female, under-went CABG. The number of bypass grafts was 1.7 per patient. Only saphenous vein (SV) was used for graft in 9 patients in the first stage from 1976 to 1983. SV and internal thoracic artery (ITA) were used in 11 patients in the second stage from 1984 to 1987. SV, ITA, and gastroepiploic artery were used in 18 patients in the third stage after 1988. The patency rate for grafts at one month after surgery was 86, 100, and 97%, and at one and three years, 58, 61, and 94% in the first, second, and third stages, respectively. Late sudden death occurred in five patients including two adult cases. Second operations were performed in two patients with in-situ arterial grafts by off pump CABG. Total arterial grafting is preferable in CABG of KD. Patients should be followed carefully and sever exercise and stress inducing activities should be avoided to prevent sudden death. Redo surgery is also feasible using arterial conduits and off pump CABG
Assessment of Right Gastroepiploic Artery Graft by Transcutaneous Doppler Ultrasonography
No full textRecently skeletonization by the ultrasonic scalpel has been recognized as a method of harvesting arterial graft including the gastroepiploic artery (GEA) for coronary artery bypass grafting. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of transcutaneous ultrasonography during assessment of skeletonized GEA grafts. Twenty five patients including 22 men and 3 women (mean age, 63 years; range, 47 to 84 years) underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting using GEA between August 2003 and April 2004. After 3 to 28 weeks of the operation, GEA was detected on the liver surface under the guidance of the color Doppler ultrasonography. The GEA diameter, blood flow waveform, peak velocity and average velocity were measured, after that blood flow was calculated. Blood flow was detected in all 25 GEAs. Blood flow waveform showed only forward flow in 24 GEAs. In one case, forward and backward flow waveform was observed. GEA diameter was 3.1 ± 0.7mm, average flow velocity was 14.0 ± 5.1cm/s, blood flow was 80.5 ± 43ml/min. This study suggests that the transcutaneous ultrasonography proved to be a noninvasive and convenient method to evaluate postoperative skeletonized GEA
15-year Follow up of Right Gastroepiploic Artery Grafting in Pediatric Patients with Kawasaki Disease
No full textCoronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for children with severe coronary artery damage due to Kawasaki disease (KD) has been performed since 1974. Initially, the saphenous vein served as the principal conduit. However saphenous vein graft patency was found to decline sharply during the first few years after surgery. Using the internal thoracic artery (ITA) improved graft patency rate after CABG. In 1988, we first successfully applied the GEA for revascularization to the distal portion, where ITA was difficult to reach. Here, we are reporting the progress, after 15 years, of two KD patients with GEA grafting. They underwent CABG using GEA at 7 and 11 years, respectively, and demonstrated normal growth and development during follow up. Angiographic examination 10 years after CABG, showed excellent patent GEA in one case. In the second case, flow competition with native coronary blood flow supplied from collateral flow from the left coronary artery was observed. The long-term effects of KD are still not well known. There have also been few reports concerned with the long-term results of GEA grafting in KD patients
Sequential Grafting of the Skeletonized Gastroepiploic Artery in Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
No full textFrom 2002, our standard strategy for coronary revascularization was off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). The gastroepiploic artery (GEA) was used as an in situ arterial grafts for multiple vessel revascularization. This study was to review the skeletonized GEA sequential grafting in OPCAB. Thirty-eight patients (32 males, aged 44 to 80 years) underwent sequential grafting of the skeletonized GEA in OPCAB between January 2002 and December 2004. The GEA was harvested in complete skeletonized fashion using an ultrasonic scalpel. The dissected GEA was placed on the antegastric and antehepatic route and led into pericardial space. The GEAs were anastomosed to the right coronary artery brunches in 25 cases and the right and the left circumflex artery brunches in 10 cases. Overall, 74 distal anastomoses were done using in situ GEAs. There were no inhospital deaths among the study patients. The patency rate of the GEAs was 97% (72 of 74 distal anastmoses) on postoperative angiogram. Two terminal anastomoses of sequential grafts were occluded. The flow competition between the coronary artery was noted in the terminal segment in 3 cases. The acceptable early clinical and angiographic outcome suggests the GEA sequential grafting is safe and effective for multiple coronary revascularization

ON THE KUSHIBAYASHI LANDSLIDE AREA
No full textThe Kushibsyasbi landslide area which is located in Ogoto town, occurred at 22 thJune 1967. There was drought condition from the middle decade of April to the lastdecade of June 1967.The landslide occurrence, at such a condition, was very singular phenomenon.We were interested in the cause of this landslide. So, we curried out geophysicalsurveies in this landslide area.As results of these surveies, we preaumed the following:1) As a basic factor, there was existence of weak stratum.2) As an immediate occasion, the soil mass in this landslide was weaked by underg-round water coming from faraway.The Kushibsyasbi landslide area which is located in Ogoto town, occurred at 22 thJune 1967.

Examination of the Essential Work of Fracture Method for Paper
No full textThe "Essential Work of Fracture (EWF)" method to estimate fracture toughness was examined by means of infrared thermography and video-microscopy. Plastic deformation zone appears in three ways when deep double edge notched tension (DENT) specimens are strained under in-plane stress as follows: 1.type(i) - appearing whole through the ligament in a vague and scattering manner, and developing into a circular (or oval) zone even before or at the maximum load point; 2.type(ii) - appearing from the notch tips and amalgamating into a circular (or oval) zone after the maximum load point; 3.type(iii) - appearing from the notch tips and not amalgamating into a circular (or oval) zone until the sheet failure. Specimens with small ligament are likely to belong to type(i), while those with large ligament to type(ii)&(iii). The analysis using video-microscopy showed that crack propagation starts at the maximum load point for the specimens with small ligament length, while it starts earlier before the point with an increase of the ligament length. And it turned out that type(i) specimens belong to the former. According to the original prerequisite, the EWF method is valid if there is a complete yielding of the ligament before the crack propagation. Therefore only type(i) specimens are concluded to be valid for the EWF method
