초록

배경: 흉부전산화단층촬영이 보편화되면서 기존의 단순흉부촬영에서는 발견되지 않았던 작은 폐결절이 발견되는 경우가 많아졌다. 이렇게 발견된 폐결절중 크기가 작거나 폐실질 내부에 위치한 결절은육안 및 촉진으로 확인이 어려운 경우가 많아 생검을 시행하는데 어려움이 따른다. 본원에서는 흉부전산화단층촬영 유도하에 Hook wire를 사용하여 위치선정을 시행한 후 흉강경하 폐쐐기절제술을 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2006년 12월부터 2010년 6월까지 31명의 환자(남자 17명, 여자 14명)에서34개의 폐결절을 대상으로 흉부전산화단층촬영 유도 하에 Hook wire를 사용하여 위치선정을 한 후,흉강경하 폐쐐기절제술을 시행하였다. Hook wire의 이탈 여부, 개흉술 전환 빈도, 위치선정 후 수술시작까지의 시간, 수술시간, 수술 후 합병증, 대상 병변의 조직학적 진단 등을 분석하였다. 결과: 34예 중 12예는 간유리 병변이었으며 22예는 고형의 폐결절이었다. 병변 크기의 중앙값은 8 mm (범위:3∼23 mm)였으며 병변 깊이의 중앙값은 12.5 mm (범위: 1∼34 mm)였다. 위치선정 후 마취 시작까지 걸린 시간의 중앙값은 86.5분(41∼473분)이었으며, 수술시간의 중앙값은 103분(25∼345분)이었다. 1예에서 wire의 흉강 내 이탈이 있었으나 성공적으로 목표 병변을 절제하였다. 4예에서 흉막유착으로 인해 개흉술을 시행하였다. 그러나 목표 병변을 찾지 못해 개흉술로 전환한 예는 없었다. 조직학적 진단에서 전이성 암이 15예로 가장 많았으며, 원발성 폐암 9예, 비특이적 염증소견 3예, 결핵성염증소견 2예, 림프절 2예, 활동성 결핵 1예, 비정형 샘 증식증 1예 및 정상폐조직 1예로 보고되었다.
결론: 폐실질 내에 위치한 간유리 음영 및 폐결절의 정확한 조직학적 진단을 위해 본원에서는 흉부전산화단층촬영 유도하 Hook wire를 삽입하여 폐결절의 위치를 선정한 후 폐 생검을 시행하였다. 저자들은 이 방법이 정확하면서 최소침습적이고 합병증 발생 및 진료비 상승을 최소화할 수 있는 유용한술기라고 생각한다.

Background: A chest computed-tomography has become more prevalent so that it is more common to detect small sized pulmonary nodules that have not been found in previous simple chest x-ray. If those detected nodules are undersized or located in pulmonary parenchyma, it is difficult to accomplish a biopsy since it is vulnerable to explore them either grossly or digitally. Thus, in our hospital, a thoracoscopic pulmonary wedge resection was performed after locating a lesion by means of hook wire with CT-guided. Material and Method: 31 patients (17males and 14 female patients) from December in 2006 to June in 2010 became our subjects; their 34 pulmonary nodules were subjected to the thoracoscopic pulmonary wedge resection after locating a lesion by means of hook wire with CT-guided. Also we analyzed a possibility of hook wire dislocation, a frequency of conversion to open thoracotomy, time consumed to operation after location of a lesion, operation time, post operation complication, and histological diagnosis of the lesion. Result: 12 of 34 cases were ground glass lesion, whereas 22 cases of them were solitary pulmonary lesion. The median value of the lesion was 8mm in size (range: 3 to 23 mm), while the median value was 12.5 mm in depth (range: 1 to 34 mm). The median value of time consumed from location of the lesion to anesthetic induction was 86.5 minutes (41∼473 minutes); furthermore the mean value of operation time was 103 minutes (25∼345 minutes). Intrathoracic wire dislocation was found in one case, but a target lesion was successfully excised. Open thoracotomy was performed in four cases due to pleural adhesion. However, there was no case of conversion to open thoracotomy due to failure to detect a target lesion. In histological diagnosis,metastatic cancer were found in 15 cases, which were the most common, primary lung cancer were in 9 cases,non-specific inflammation were in 3 cases, tuberculosis inflammation were in 2 cases, lymph nodes were in 2 cases,active tuberculosis were in 1 case, atypical adenomatous hyperplasia was in 1 case and normal lung parenchymal finding was in 1 case, respectively. Conclusion: In our hospital, in order to accomplish a precise histological diagnosis of ground-glass lesion and pulmonary nodules in lung parenchyma, location of pulmonary nodules were exactly located with hook wire under chest computed-tomography, which was followed by lung biopsy. We concluded that this was an accurate, minimally invasive and valuable method to minimize the complications and increase of cost of medical service provided.
