혈흉을 동반한 폐동정맥루에 대한 치험 - 1예 보고 -

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Fistula with Hemothorax - A case report-

  • 발행 : 2004.08.01

초록

폐동정맥루는 선천적 혹은 후천적인 원인에 의해 발병할 수 있으며 단락이 존재하는 경우 호흡곤란, 청색증, 폐혈관 잡음 등의 증상이 나타날 수 있다. 진단 방법은 혈액검사, 흉부단순촬영, 흉부전산화 단층촬영, 폐동맥조영술 등이 있으며 그 중 가장 정확한 진단 방법으로는 폐동맥조영술이 있다. 폐동정맥루의 합병증으로는 파열로 인한 혈흉, 뇌농양, 뇌졸중 등이 있으며 이에 대한 치료법으로는 수술적 절제술과 치료적 색전술을 시행할 수 있다. 26세 여자 환자가 내원 30분 전 갑자기 발생된 호흡곤란을 주소로 내원하였다. 흉부전산화단층촬영과 폐동맥조영술상 우하엽 상분절에서 4${\times}$4${\times}$3 cm의 폐동정맥루가 진단되어 우하엽 절제술을 계획한 후 응급수술을 시행하였다. 저자들은 우하엽 상분절에 발병한 혈흉을 동반한 선천성 폐동정맥루를 치험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 증례보고하는 바이다.

Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula is usually considered as a subset of congenital anomalies or acquired causes which can produce a variety of conditions such as dyspnea, cyanosis, and pulmonary vascular bruit. The diagnostic methods can be diverse such as arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA), chest X-ray, chest CT and pulmonary angiogram but the most accurate diagnostic modality is thought to be the pulmonary angiogram. The complications of this disease are a rupture that can cause hemothorax, brain abscess, and cardiovascular accident, and the treatment options are either segmental resection or therapeutic embolization. A twenty-six year old female developed sudden dyspnea and visited our emergency room. The patient was diagnosed as having pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (size; 4${\times}$4${\times}$3 cm) in the superior segment of the right lower lobe, evidenced by chest CT and pulmonary angiogram. Consequently, she underwent an emergency right lower lobectomy. We report this rare case of combined hemothorax that we have experienced, from diagnosis to treatment.
