| 영문 | mitral stenosis | 한글 | 승모판막 협착증 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 승모판막(좌심방과 좌심실사이에 존재하는 판막)이 좁아져 있는 병적인 상태를 말함. 정상적으로 승모판사이의 공간면적은 4~6cm정도이며, 이 면적이 2.5cm이하가 되면 증상이 나타난다. 그리고 1~2cm이하가 되면 수술을 고려해야 한다. 운동성 호흡곤란이 주증상이며, 심장청진상 심잡음이 들린다. 증상과 협착의 정도에 따라 다르나, 대개 수술을 고려해야 하며, 수술은 판막대치술, 판막성형술 등이 있고, 판막대치술에도, 조직판막을 이용하는 방법과 기계판막을 이용하는 방법 2가지로 나눌 수 있다. |

| mitral regurgitation | <cardiology> The back flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium through a defective mitral bicuspid valve. The most common cause for mitral regurgitation is rheumatic fever. Other causes include: myocardial infarction, massive calcification of the mitral annulus (in the elderly), lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, infectious endocarditis and ankylosing spondylitis. (13 Nov 1997) |

| mitral stenosis | <cardiology> A congenital or acquired heart valve abnormality that describes the narrowing and ineffective opening of the mitral valve. (13 Nov 1997) |
| mitral tap | The palpable equivalent of the opening snap of the mitral valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mitral valve | <anatomy, cardiology> The heart valve that divides the left atrium and left ventricle. During left atrial contraction, the mitral valve opens to allow blood to flow into the left ventricle. Upon closure, the mitral valve prohibits the regurgitation of blood back into the left atrium. The mitral valve is the only heart valve that has only 2 valve cusps (all others have 3). (13 Nov 1997) |
| mitral valve prolapse | <cardiology> A systolic click-murmur syndrome, floppy-valve syndrome and billowing mitral leaflet syndrome. A common, but highly variable (most individuals are asymptomatic), clinical syndrome that has been described in up to 7% of all females in the 14 to 30 age group. There is also an increased familial incidence suggesting an autosomal dominant form of inheritance. Treatment often includes the avoidance of stimulants (caffeine, nicotine, decongestants) and the use of a beta-blocker medication in select cases. Inheritance: autosomal dominant. Synonym:: Barlow's syndrome. (13 Nov 1997) |
| mitral valve prolapse syndrome | <syndrome> The clinical constellation of findings with or without symptoms due to prolapse of the mitral valve: a nonejection systolic click accentuated in the standing posture, sometimes multiple, sometimes with mitral regurgitation occurring relatively late in systole, and accompanied by echocardiographic evidence of the mitral valve prolapse, usually with thickened leaflets of the valve. Symptoms are non-specific and may include vague chest pains and dyspnea on exertion. Synonym: billowing mitral valve syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mitral valve stenosis | A rheumatic disease causing diffuse thickening of the mitral valve leaflets by fibrous tissue or calcific deposits. (harrisons' principles of internal medicine, 13th ed, p1052) (12 Dec 1998) |
| mitral valvotomy | Deliberate incision or enlargement by inserting a finger in the mitral valve due to mitral stenosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ischemic mitral regurgitation | A regurgitation of the mitral valve caused by ischemic heart disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fish-mouth mitral stenosis | Extreme mitral stenosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute adrenocortical insufficiency | Severe adrenocortical insufficiency when an intercurrent illness or trauma causes an increased demand for adrenocortical hormones in a patient with adrenal insufficiency due to disease or use of relatively large amounts of similar hormones as therapy; characterised by nausea, vomiting, hypotension, and frequently hyperthemia, hyponatraemia, hyperkalaemia, and hypoglycaemia; can be fatal if untreated. Synonym: addisonian crisis, adrenal crisis, Bernard-Sergent syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adrenal gland insufficiency | <endocrinology> A condition that results from the inadequate production of adrenal hormones (see Addison's disease). (27 Sep 1997) |
| adrenal insufficiency | <endocrinology> A condition that results from the inadequate production of adrenal hormones (see Addison's disease). (27 Sep 1997) |
| adrenocortical insufficiency | Loss, to varying degrees, of adrenocortical function. Synonym: hypocorticoidism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aortic insufficiency | A congenital or acquired heart valve abnormality that results in the abnormal back flow of blood in the aorta, through an incompetent aortic valve and into the left ventricle. Chronic aortic insufficiency leads to enlargement of the left ventricle and pulmonary congestion. If left uncorrected, congestive heart failure will result. Aortic valve replacement is eventually necessary in most cases of significant valvular incompetence. (27 Sep 1997) |
