Abstract

We experienced a case of hemoptysis caused by bilateral upper lobe aspergilloma. He was 66 years old and had a history of old unclear pulmonary tuberculosis with irregular medication 20 years ago and intermittent hemoptysis for several years. In x-ray study, there was a bilateral upper lobe aspergilloma with cavity. He received bilateral wedge resection through thoracotomy with some interval to reduce postoperative complications. We selected the priorty of operation through the bronchoscope in the operation room. Both sides had the same pathology of aspergilloma and he was discharged after an uneventful postoperative course.

저자들은 양측 폐상엽 국균증으로부터 유발된 객혈 1 례를 경험하였다. 환자는 66세 남자로 간헐적으로 재발된 객혈을 가진 환자로 다량의 객혈로 전원되어 X-ray 검사상 양측 상엽에 공동과 진균구를 관찰되었다. 환자는 불량한 전신상태와 호흡기능을 가져 술후 합병증을 최대한 예방하기 위해 정중 흉골절개에 의한 동시 절제보다는 순차적 절제를 계획해 우측병변을 먼저 절제하고 후에 좌측병변을 절제하였다. 조직 검사상 폐결핵성 병변은 없는 폐국균증으로 확진되고 큰 합병증 없이 회복되어 외래 추적치료중이며 객혈이나 진균증의 재발소견은 없었다.
