배경: 좌심실 벽 운동장애는 관상동맥 우회술 후 장기생존율에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 이 연구는 심근경색증 후 발생한 좌심실 벽 운동장애가 관상동맥 우회술 후 장기생존율에 어떠한 영향을 주는가를 알아보았다. 대상 및 방법: 관상동맥 우회술 후 9년이 넘은 환자들 133예(남/여, 92/41)를 대상으로, 심근경색 후 좌심실 벽 운동장애가 있는 환자 56예(남/여 42/14, 평균연령 $59.2pm9.2$세)와 좌심실 벽 운동장애가 없는 환자 77예(남/여 50/27,평균연령 $58.0pm7.6$세)로 나누어 비교 분석하였다. 대부분의 환자들(l12/133, $84.2\%$)에서 체외순환 하에 좌측 속 가슴동맥과 하지 큰 두렁정맥을 이용하여 수술하였고 대동맥 차단 상태에서 근위연결 및 원위연결을 시행하는 방법으로 수술하였다. 걸과: 좌심실 벽 운동장애가 있는 환자들의 좌심실 구혈률은 평균 $48.7pm13.2\%$로 좌심실 벽 운동장애가 없는 환자들(평균$57.1pm10.1\%$)보다 감소되어 있었다(p=0.0001). 운동장애가 없는 환자군에서 평균 $135.1pm18.0$개월의 추적으로 5년, 10년, 13년의 생존율은 각각 $85.7pm4.0\%,;76.2;4.9\%,;57.2pm10.3\%$였고, 좌심실 운동장애가 있는 환자군에서 평균 $122.8pm22.7$개월의 추적으로 5년, 10년, 13년의 생존율은 각각 $80.4pm5.3\%,;58.7pm7.3\%,;11.9pm7.9\%$이었다(p=0.1). 심근경색에 의한 좌점실 벽 국소 운동장애가 있는 환자의 장기생존율에 영향을 미치는 인자는 좌심실 구혈률과 외래 치료였다. 다변량 분석에서 좌심실 벽 운동장애가 있는 환자군의 장기생존율은 외래 치료를 한 환자에서 우수하였고 좌심실 벽 운동장애가 없는 군의 장기생존율은 여성에서 우수하였다. 결론: 심근경색 후 좌심실 벽의 운동장애가 있는 경우 장기 생존율은 운동장애가 없는 경우보다 떨어지는 경향을 보이며, 그런 환자들에서 수술 후 외래 치료가 장기 생존에 매우 중요하다고 생각한다.
Background: Wall motion abnormalities may be a significant predictor for long-term survival after coronary bypass surgery (CABG). The aim of this study is to see whether post-infarction wall motion abnormality of left ventricle affect on the long-term survival after CABG. Material and Method: One-hundred and thirty-three patients (male/female, 92/41) undergoing CABG more than 9 years ago were included in this study. Fifty-six patients (M/F, 42/14; mean age, $59.2pm9.2$ years) with LV wall motion abnormalities were compared to 77 patients (M/F, 50/27; mean age, $58.0pm7.6$ years) without the wall motion abnormalities. Most patients (112/133, $84.2\%$) had undergone on-pump CABG with the in-situ left internal thoracic artery and free grafts of saphenous vein, in which the proximal and distal anastomoses were done for the single aortic cross-clamping period. Result: Ejection fraction of left ventricle was lower in the group with LV wall motion abnormalities (mean ejection fraction, $48.7pm13.2\%$) compared to the group without wall motion abnormalities (mean ejection fraction, $57.1pm10.1\%$)(p=0.0001). Riskunadjusted survivals after CABG in the group without wall motion abnormalities were $85.7pm4.0\%,;76.2pm4.9\%,;and;57.2pm10.3\%$ at 5, 10, and 13 years, respectively, and in the group with wall motion abnormalities were $80.4pm5.3\%,;58.7pm7.3\%,;and;51.9pm7.9\%$ at 5, 10, and 13 years, respectively (p=0.1). In univariate analysis, predictable factors of long-term survival in the patients with LV wall motion abnormalities were LV ejection fraction and post operative outpatient treatment. In multivariate analysis, predictable factor of long-term survival in the patients with the wall motion abnormalities was postoperative outpatient treatment, and that in those without the wall motion abnormalities was female. Conclusion: Although there was no significant survival difference after CABG between the group with LV wall motion abnormalities and that without wall motion abnormalities, the survival in the group with wall motion abnormalities seems to be more decreased. For the patients with LV wall motion abnormalities after myocardial infarction, the post-CABG outpatient treatment is suggested to be an important factor for the long-term survival.
