| 영문 | myocardial infarction | 한글 | 심근경색증 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 심장에 피를 공급하는 혈관이 막혀서, 그 동맥에 의해 영양분을 공급받는 부위가 괴사(죽는다는 뜻)에 빠지는 것을 말함. 주로 동맥경화증(동맥에 지방성분, 주로 콜레스테롤 등이 쌓여 동맥이 굳어서 딱딱해지는 병적상태) 등으로 혈관이 좁아져 있는 상태에서 혈전(적혈구, 혈소판 등 피의 성분이 뭉쳐서 발생) 이 발생하거나, 지나친 동맥경화증자체 등에 의해 발생한다. 현재 미국 등, 선진국에서의 가장 큰 사망요인이 되고 있다. 또한 이 주위에는 대개 심근허혈부위가 존재하는데 이 부위는 현재 피가 모자라서 막 괴사에 빠지기 직전의 세포가 있는 부위이다. 따라서 이 허혈상태에서 빠른 치료를 시행하여 피가 공급되면, 이 부위는 정상적인 상태로 되겠지만, 만약 계속 이 상태로 있게 되면, 언젠가는 역시 경색증에 빠져 심장운동에 막대한 지장을 초래하게 될 것이다. |

| splenic infarction | Cell death (necrosis) of a portion or all of the spleen due to an interruption in blood flow. (27 Sep 1997) |
| subendocardial myocardial infarction | Infarction that involves only the layer of muscle subjacent to the endocardium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nontransmural myocardial infarction | Necrosis of heart muscle that fails to extend from the endocardium to the epicardium, often erroneously considered relatively benign. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diaphragmatic myocardial infarction | Infarction in which the inferior or diaphragmatic wall of the heart is involved, producing indicative changes in leads II, III, and aVF in the electrocardiogram. Synonym: diaphragmatic myocardial infarction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infarction | 1. <cardiology> The formation of an infarct. 2. An infarct. Origin: L. Infarcire = to stuff in (18 Nov 1997) |
| inferior myocardial infarction | Infarction in which the inferior or diaphragmatic wall of the heart is involved, producing indicative changes in leads II, III, and aVF in the electrocardiogram. Synonym: diaphragmatic myocardial infarction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferolateral myocardial infarction | Infarction involving the inferior and lateral surfaces of the heart and producing indicative changes in the electrocardiogram in leads II, III, aVF, V5, and V6. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transmural myocardial infarction | Infarction that involves the whole thickness of the heart muscle from endocardium to epicardium. Synonym: through-and-through myocardial infarction. (05 Mar 2000) |

| acute kidney failure | <nephrology> A sudden decline in renal function may be triggered by a number of acute disease processes. Examples include sepsis (infection), shock, trauma, kidney stones, kidney infection, drug toxicity (aspirin or lithium), poisons or toxins (drug abuse) or after injection with an iodinated contrast dye (adverse effect). Chronic renal failure represents a slow decline in kidney function over time. Chronic renal failure may be caused by a number of disorders which include long-standing hypertension, diabetes, congestive heart failure, lupus or sickle cell anaemia. Both forms of renal failure result in a life-threatening metabolic derangement. (27 Sep 1997) |
| acute kidney transplant rejection | <radiology> Findings on ultrasound: globular enlargment of the kidney, swelling and hypoechogenicity of the medullary pyramids, indistinct cortico-medullary junction, foci in the renal cortex (12 Dec 1998) |

| amyloid kidney | A kidney in which amyloidosis has occurred, usually in association with some chronic illness such as multiple myeloma, tuberculosis, osteomyelitis, or other chronic suppurative inflammation; such kidney's are moderately enlarged and grossly manifest a waxy appearance, with amyloid deposited beneath the endothelium in the glomerular loops and in the arterioles, apparently beginning as foci of thickening of the basement membranes. Synonym: waxy kidney. (05 Mar 2000) |
