| 영문 | carotid artery | 한글 | 목동맥 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 머리부분의 혈액을 공급하는 동맥. 온목동맥는 대동맥에서 직접 나오는 동맥으로, 바깥목동맥와 속목동맥로 나뉜다. 속목동맥은 뇌의 혈액을 공급하는 역할을 하고, 바깥목동맥은 뇌를 제외한 머리부분에 혈액을 공급하는 역할을 한다. |

| 영문 | coronary artery bypass surgery | 한글 | 심장동맥 두름길수술, 심장동맥우회로 수술 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 심장동맥이란 심장에 혈액을 공급하는 동맥을 이르는 말로 심장역시 근육이어서 혈액을 공급받아야 수축을 할 수가 있다. 심장동맥이 좁아질 경우에는 심장에 혈액의 공급이 없어져서 심장동맥병이라는 병을 일으킨다. 심장동맥 두름길수술(coronary artery bypass surgery)이란 심장동맥병에서 좁아진 혈관부위 때문에 생기는 혈액공급이 적어진 부위에 혈액공급을 원활하게 해주는 수술방법으로 다른 부위의 혈관이나 인공적인 물질을 이용해서 좁아진 혈관부위의 앞, 뒤를 연결하여 혈류가 좁아진 부분을 지나지 않고 새로 연결된 부분을 지나게 하여 혈류를 증가시키는 방법이다. |

| 영문 | coronary artery disease | 한글 | 심장동맥병 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 심장동맥이란 심장에 혈액을 공급하는 동맥을 말한다. 심장도 다른 근육과 마찬가지로 혈액을 공급받아야 수축을 할 수가 있는 기관으로 심장의 혈액을 공급하는 동맥을 심장동맥이라고 한다. 심장동맥병이란 심장동맥의 내경이 좁아져서 생기는 질환으로 허혈심장병(ischemic heart disease)이라고도 불린다. 관상동맥이 좁아질 경우에는 심장으로 가는 혈액의 양이 적어져서 심장에 충분한 혈액이 공급이 되지 못하므로 여러 가지 병적인 현상이 생긴다. 심장동맥이 좁아지는 데에는 여러 가지 원인이 있을 수가 있으나 주로 심장동맥의 동맥경화증에 의한다. 동맥경화증이란 동맥의 내층에 지방과 콜레스테롤로 이루어진 죽종(atheroma)가 생기는 질환으로 죽종이 생긴 동맥은 죽종이 혈관의 내부로 돌출하게 되어서 혈관의 내경이 작아지게 된다. 심장동맥병은 그 정도에 따라서 협심증(angina pectoris)와 심근경색증(myocardial infarction)으로 나눈다. 협심증은 심장동맥의 부분적 폐쇄에 의해서 평상시에는 증상이 없지만 심장이 많은 활동을 할 경우에 심장에 피가 충분한 만큼 공급이 되지 않아서 생기는 질병으로 평상시에 쉴 경우에는 아무 증상이 없지만 운동이나 과식 등의 원인으로 심장이 많은 운동을 할 경우에 심장에 공급되는 혈액의 양이 모자라서 증상(대개 가슴부위에 쥐어짜는 듯한 통증)이 생긴다. 심근경색증이란 심장동맥의 완전폐쇄에 의해서 심장의 근육이 혈액을 전혀 공급받지 못해서 심장의 근육이 썩는 경우를 말한다. |

|---|---|
| paraneoplastic syndromes | In patients with neoplastic diseases a wide variety of clinical pictures which are indirect and usually remote effects produced by tumour cell metabolites or other products. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pathologic startle syndromes | A group of disorders characterised by markedly exaggerated startle reflex and other exaggerated stimulus-induced responses. Includes hyperexplexia and probably latah and the jumping Frenchman of Maine syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chromosomal instability syndromes | A group of mendelian conditions associated with chromosomal instability and breakage in vitro, they often manifest an increased tendency to certain types of malignancies. See: Bloom's syndrome, fragile X syndrome, xeroderma pigmentosum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| compartment syndromes | Conditions in which increased pressure within a limited space compromises the circulation and function of tissue within that space. Compartmentation involves mainly the leg but also involved are the forearm, arm, thigh, shoulder, and buttock. Some of the causes of increased pressure are trauma, tight dressings, haemorrhage, and exercise. Sequelae include nerve compression, paralysis, and contracture. (12 Dec 1998) |
| myelodysplastic syndromes | Conditions in which the bone marrow shows qualitative and quantitative changes suggestive of a preleukaemic process, but having a chronic course that does not necessarily terminate as acute leukaemia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| myeloproliferative syndromes | A group of conditions that result from a disorder in the rate of formation of cells of the bone marrow, including chronic granulocytic leukaemia, erythraemia, myelosclerosis, panmyelosis, and erythraemic myelosis and erythroleukaemia. (05 Mar 2000) |

| myofascial pain syndromes | Muscular pain in numerous body regions that can be reproduced by pressure on trigger points, localised hardenings in skeletal muscle tissue. Pain is referred to a location distant from the trigger points. A prime example is the temporomandibular joint dysfunction syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| postgastrectomy syndromes | Sequelae of gastrectomy from the second week after operation on. Include recurrent or anastomotic ulcer, postprandial syndromes (dumping syndrome and late postprandial hypoglycaemia), disordered bowel action, and nutritional deficiencies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| pre-excitation syndromes | Conditions characterised by activation of the whole or some part of the ventricle by the atrial impulse earlier than would be expected if the impulse reached the ventricle by way of the normal specific conduction system only. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sleep apnea syndromes | Disorders involving apneic episodes during sleep. They may be due to cessation of diaphragmatic movement, obstruction of upper airway air flow, or a combination of these, and may be associated with hypersomnolence, insomnia, or obesity. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplastic endocrine-like syndromes | Endocrine syndromes due to hormone production by neoplasms of non-endocrine tissue, or by other than the usual endocrine tissues. They are often the first indication of a previously undetected neoplasm. (12 Dec 1998) |
| neoplastic syndromes, hereditary | The condition of a pattern of malignancies within a family, but not every individual's necessarily having the same neoplasm. Characteristically the tumour tends to occur at an earlier than average age, individuals may have more than one primary tumour, the tumours may be multicentric, usually more than 25 percent of the individuals in direct lineal descent from the proband are affected, and the cancer predisposition in these families behaves as an autosomal dominant trait with about 60 percent penetrance. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nerve compression syndromes | Repeated or prolonged pressure on a nerve root or peripheral nerve leading to ischemia, the response to which is oedema above and below the source of pressure. If the pressure is not relieved, fibrosis tends to develop. Types of nerve compression syndromes are the neuropathy caused by intervertebral disk herniation, compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, compression of the ulnar nerve in the elbow, and compression of the lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh in meralgia paresthetica. This is also called pressure neuropathy. (12 Dec 1998) |
