Abstract

An unusual case of primary leiomyosarcoma at the left lower posterior chest wall with metastasis to the right lung parenchyme is presented. The patient was a 43-year-old man who was asymptomatic but a slow growing hard mass was noted at the left lower posterior chest wall. The chest computed tomography showed a tumor at the left lower posterior chest wall with multiple metastasis to the right lung. The left lower posterior chest wall mass was examined by percutaneous needle aspiration and it was revealed as rhabdomyosarcoma histologically. En bloc resection to the left lower posterior chest wall tumor and metastasectomy to the multiple nodules in the right lung were done and pathological examination finally revealed primary leiomyosarcoma at the left lower posterior chest wall with multiple metastasis to the right lung. Chemotherapy was scheduled as adjunctive measure.

폐 전이를 동반한 원발성 흉벽 평활근육종은 매우 드물다. 43세 남자 환자가 특별한 증상없이 좌측 후 하흉벽에 서서히 커지는 단단한 종괴를 주소로 내원하였다. 흥부 컴퓨터 단층촬영 소견 상 우측 폐에 다발성전이를 동반한 좌측 후 하 흉벽의 종양이 관찰되었다. 좌측 후 하 흉벽 종양에 대해 시행한 세침 검사상 조직학적으로 횡문근육종 소견을 보였다. 좌측 후 하 흉벽 종양을 일괄 절제하고 우측 폐의 다발성 결절들을 절제하여 얻은 병리학적 소견상 다발성 우측 폐 전이를 동반한 좌측 후 하 흥벽의 원발성 평활근육종으로 진단되었고 항암 치료를 추가로 계획하였다.
