|---|---|---|---|
| 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. |

| coronary artery bypass graft | A surgical procedure, known as a coronary artery bypass graft, which involves replacing diseased (narrowed) coronary arteries with veins obtained from the patients lower extremities (autologous graft). During this procedure the patient is placed on a heart bypass machine (heart-lung machine) to allow the surgeon adequate time to perform surgery on the resting (nonbeating) heart. This procedure has proven to extend the lives of individuals with coronary artery disease and improve the quality of life. Recovery in the hospital is approximately 7-10 days. (27 Sep 1997) |
|---|---|
| coronary artery calcification | <radiology> In setting of chest pain, upto 94% will have significant coronary artery calcification (12 Dec 1998) |
| coronary artery disease | The process by which the coronary arteries become narrowed or completely occluded, is known as atherosclerosis. Ultimately, this is the underlying cause of a heart attack. (27 Sep 1997) |
| coronary artery dominance | <radiology> Dominance = source of posterior descending artery (patent ductus arteriosus), 70% right (right coronary artery), 20% balanced, 10% left (left CIRCUMFLEX artery) (12 Dec 1998) |
| coronary artery spasm | A sudden vasoconstriction of a coronary artery depriving the myocardium of blood flow and oxygen. This may clinically manifest as chest pain referred to as variant angina or Printzmetal's angina. May be precipitated by emotional stress, medications, street drugs (cocaine) or on exposure to cold. Treatment includes nitroglycerin or beta-blocker medications. (27 Sep 1997) |
| internal mammary-coronary artery anastomosis | Direct myocardial revascularization in which the internal mammary artery is anastomosed to the right coronary artery, circumflex artery, or anterior descending coronary artery. The internal mammary artery is the most frequent choice, especially for a single graft, for coronary artery bypass surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| left coronary artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, left aortic sinus; distribution, it divides into two major branches, an anterior interventricular which descends in the anterior interventricular sulcus, and a circumflex branch which passes to the diaphragmatic surface of the left ventricle; gives atrial, ventricular, and atrioventricular branches. Synonym: arteria coronaria sinistra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| left coronary artery branches | <radiology> Left anterior descending (LAD) artery, diagonal branches, septal branches (short br. at 90' angle), left circumflex artery (LCA), obtuse marginal branches (12 Dec 1998) |
| right branch | Of a pair of branches, the branch passing to the right side of the body, to the right member of a bilateral pair of structures, or to the right portion of an unpaired structure; the other member of the pair being a left branch. Synonym: ramus dexter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right branch of portal vein | <anatomy, vein> Terminal branch of hepatic portal vein distributed to right lobe of liver tributary: cystic vein. Synonym: ramus dexter venae portae hepatis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior branch of right hepatic duct | Hepatic duct branch draining bile from posterior segments of right lobe of liver. Synonym: ramus posterior ductus hepatici dextri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior branch of right superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> Drains posterior portion of superior lobe of right lung. Synonym: ramus posterior venae pulmonalis dextrae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior branch of the right and left inferior pulmonary veins | Tributaries of the right and left inferior pulmonary veins which receive oxygenated blood from the superior [S6] bronchopulmonary segments of the inferior lobes of the right and left lungs. Synonym: ramus superior venae pulmonalis dextrae/sinistrae inferioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infralobar part of posterior branch of right pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> The vein draining the posterior segment of the right lung that emerges inferior to the superior lobe; tributary to the posterior branch of the right superior pulmonary vein. Synonym: pars infralobaris rami posterioris venae pulmonalis dextrae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| communicating branch of glossopharyngeal nerve with auricular branch of vagus nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A small branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve which joins the auricular branch of the vagus, conveying tactile fibres. Synonym: ramus communicans cum nervo glossopharyngeo, ramus communicans nervi glossopharyngei cum ramo auriculari nervi vagalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
