Purpose : In acyanotic congenital heart disease of children with left to right shunt, 99mTc- Macroaggregate albumin(MAA) was employed to determine the scintigraphic severity of pulmonary parenchymal damage.
Methods : These data of lung perfusion scan using 99mTc-MAA were compared with hemodynamic values obtained from cardiac catheterization.
Results : The mean Pulmonary arterial pressure(≥30mmHg), total pulmonary resistance(≥2 Wood unit)... |

Isolated congenital tricuspid insufficiency is a rare anomaly and may be caused by abnormal chordae tendinae, papillary muscle, or valve leaflets. The cause of these lesions is generally ascribed to incomplete undermining of primitive endocardial cushion by sinusoidal space, which differentiate the cushion into the various valvular structures. Carvallo’s sign, most characteristic clinical sign in tricuspid insufficiency, is augumentation

The anomalous origin of the left coronary from the pulmonary artery is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly and there has been no case reported in Korea. We report one case of the anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery. He was an 11 month-old male body, who was suffered from congestive heart failure
