초록

저자들은 폐색전증 의심하에 항응고제를 포함한 약물치료를 시행하였으나 임상증상의 호전이 없는 환자에서, 흉부 전산화단층촬영과 흉부 자기공명영상촬영을 통해 색전을 동반한 혈관의 종물을 발견한 후 수술적 제거로 진단한 원발성 폐동맥 육종 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

A primary pulmonary artery sarcoma is a rare malignant tumor derived from the intimal layer of the pulmonary artery. Its clinical presentation can lead to a misdiagnosis of more common diseases such as thromboembolic disease. It is known to have a very poor prognosis. Therefore, the correct diagnosis of a primary pulmonary artery sarcoma is difficult and often delayed. We experienced a case of primary pulmonary artery sarcoma mimicking a pulmonary thromboembolism. The patient was admitted as a result of progressive dyspnea and coughing. The lung perfusion scan showed a large perfusion defect involving almost the entire right lung and suspicious small perfusion defects in the left upper lobe. Magnetic resonance imaging of the chest showed an enhancing nodule within the thrombus in the right pulmonary artery. The mass was removed completely by surgery, but the patient died as a result of shock.
