| 영문 | renal cell carcinoma | 한글 | 콩팥세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥에 생긴 원시콩팥조직에서 발생한 암. 주로 원시세뇨관조직에서 발생한다. 대표적인 세포조직형은 염색시 세포질이 맑게 비어보이는 맑은세포암종이다. 치료는 수술과 항암화학요법이며 아주 드물지만 저절로 낫는 경우도 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. |

| 영문 | renal transplantation | 한글 | 콩팥이식 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥병을 가지고 있으나 치료가 불가능한 만성콩팥기능상실 등의 질병을 가진 환자의 신장을 떼어내고 환자와 항원성이 유사한 사람의 콩팥을 이식해주는 것. 이 때 서로간의 항원성의 유사점이 많아야 거부반응이 일어나지 않는다. 그리고 일단 콩팥이식을 받은 사람은 오랜기간 동안 면역억제제를 투여하여 거부반응을 줄여야 한다. 대개 이식된 콩팥은 엉덩뼈오목에 위치하게 된다. |

| parathyroid insufficiency | <endocrinology> A term which describes the abnormally low production of parathyroid hormone by the parathyroid glands. Hypoparathyroidism may be congenital or occur in association with another disorder (autoimmune disease, haemochromatosis). Common symptoms are those of low blood calcium: muscle spasms, tetany, facial grimacing, laryngeal spasm and seizures. (11 Jan 1998) |

| vertebrobasilar insufficiency | Obstruction or stenosis of the vertebral-basilar system manifested by disturbances of consciousness, vertigo, headache, hemi- or quadriplegia, dysarthria, and facial paralysis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| partial adrenocortical insufficiency | Normal basal adrenocortical function with failure of adrenocortical reserve to respond to ACTH stimulation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory insufficiency | Failure to adequately provide oxygen to cells of the body and to remove excess carbon dioxide from them. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mitral insufficiency | Malfunction of the mitral valve. Mitral insufficiency allows the backflow of blood (regurgitation) from the left ventricle into the left atrium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mitral valve insufficiency | Backflow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium, owing to imperfect functioning of the mitral valve. (12 Dec 1998) |
| placental insufficiency | Failure of the placenta to deliver an adequate supply of nutrients and oxygen to the foetus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| muscular insufficiency | Failure of any muscle to contract with its normal force, especially such failure of any of the eye muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| convergence insufficiency | That condition in which an oesophoria or esotropia is more marked for far vision than for near vision. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coronary insufficiency | Inadequate coronary circulation leading to anginal pain. Synonym: coronarism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| myocardial insufficiency | A condition where there is ineffective pumping of the heart leading to an accumulation of fluid in the lungs. Typical symptoms include shortness of breath with exertion, difficulty breathing when lying flat and leg or ankle swelling. Causes include chronic hypertension, cardiomyopathy and myocardial infarction. (27 Sep 1997) |
| primary adrenocortical insufficiency | Adrenocortical insufficiency caused by disease, destruction, or surgical removal of the adrenal cortices. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hepatic insufficiency | Defective functional activity of the liver cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| secondary adrenocortical insufficiency | Adrenocortical insufficiency caused by failure of ACTH secretion resulting from anterior pituitary disease or inhibition of ACTH production resulting from exogenous steroid therapy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary insufficiency | Pulmonary here refers to the valve between the right ventricle of the heart and the pulmonary artery. If this valve is insufficient (incompetant) in its performance, blood sloshes back from the pulmonary artery into the right ventricle. (12 Dec 1998) |
