Abstract

Background: The author studied to define the current indications for surgical management of chest tuberculosis and to analyze the results of the operative procedures. Material and Method: The records of 87 patients among 107 patients operated on between January 1992 and May 1995 were reviewed. These patients were divided into 4 groups. Group I patients (n=45) underwent decortication with or without wedge resection of the lesion. Group II patients(n=23) underwent radical curettages of chest wall involving rib caries with or without thoracotomy. Group III patients(n=12) underwent standard pneumonectomy or pleuropneumonectomy. Group IV patients(n=7) underwent exploratory thoracotomy or wedge resection of tuberculous lung lesion. Result: Statistical analysis revealed an inverse correlation between AIs and intratumoral microvessel densities in squamous cell lung carcinoma(Spearman rank correlation coefficient r=- 0.229, p=0.047). Conclusion: The author concludes that surgery for chest tuberculosis is the definite management for therapeutic indications and surgical radication of tuberculous carriers for management of chest tuberculosis is safe and has satisfactory results.

배경: 흉부결핵의 외과적 치료성적을 분석하여 안정성을 확인하고 적응증을 넓히고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 1992년 1월부터 1995년 5월까지 흉부결핵으로 진단받고 수술을 받은 107명중 저자에게 시술받은 87명의 병록지를 후향 분석하였다. 환자를 4군으로 분류하였다. 제 1군은 폐엽병변의 쇄기절제술 여부에 관계없이 폐박피술을 시행한 45명이고, 제 2군은 개흉술 여부에 관계없이 늑막주위 및 늑골결핵을 수술한 23명이며, 제 3군은 일측전폐적출술을 시행한 12명였으며, 제 4군은 시험적 개흉술 혹은 쇄기절제술을 시행받은 7명이었다. 결과: 수술 후 사망례는 없었으며, 수술 후 합병증은 흉벽육종을 동반한 환자에서 1례(1.1%)발생하였다. 결론: 적절한 내과적 치료 후 흉부결핵의 정확한 수술요법은 안전하고 만족스러운 결과를 보였으며, 근치를 위한 적응이 되며, 결핵균 보균자의 퇴출목적으로 수술 적응증을 넓일 수 있다는 것을 본 연구를 통하여 제시한다.
