초록

목 적 : 소아 수모세포종은 수술과 중추신경계 방사선조사 그리고 항암화학요법의 병합치료로 장기 생존율의 향상을 가져왔으나 성장호르몬결핍을 포함한 여러 내분비적 장애가 잘 발생하기에, 본 저자들은 수모세포종 치료 후 내분비적 장애와 성장변화를 관찰하고 해당 호르몬 치료의 성과를 분석하였다. 방 법 : 1986-2004년까지 서울대학교병원에서 수모세포종 치료를 마친 후 소아내분비 외래를 방문한 37명(남아 24명, 여아 13명)을 대상으로 내분비 장애와 성장변화에 대하여 분석하였다. 결 과 : 성장속도가 4 cm/yr 미만인 환자 중 16명에서 성장호르몬자극검사가 시행되었고 14명(전체환자 중 37.8%)이 성장호르몬결핍증으로 진단받았으며(완전 5명, 부분 9명), 2명의 환자는 신경분비장애로 의심되었다. 성장호르몬결핍증 환자군과 성장호르몬결핍이 없는 군 모두에서 방사선치료 전후의 키 표준편차 점수는 모두 유의한 감소를 보였으며(P<0.001), 성장호르몬결핍이 있는 12명과 신경분비장애가 있는 1명의 환자에게서 성장호르몬 치료를 시작하였다. 치료 전 골연령은 $9.3{\pm}4.7$세로 역연령에 비해 2.1세 저하되어 있었다. 치료 전 성장속도는 $3.4{\pm}1.2cm/yr$에서 1년째 $5.4{\pm}2.9cm/yr$로 유의하게 증가하였으나 키표준편차점수는 치료 전과 치료 후 유의한 변화가 없었다. 전체 37명 중 12명(32.4%)이 일차성 갑상선기능저하증으로 갑상선호르몬 치료를 받았다. 또한 다른 6명(16.2%)에서는 보상성 갑상선기능저하증이 의심되었다. 1명의 환자에서 방사선 치료종료 7년 후에 갑상선암이 발생하여 갑상선 전절제술을 시행 받은 후 갑상선호르몬을 복용 중이다. 성선자극호르몬결핍 1명(2%), 성선부전증이 2명(4%) 진단되었다. 결 론 : 수모세포종 치료 후 대부분 성장장애가 관찰되며 주로 성장호르몬결핍증과 척수방사선조사 등에 기인한다. 성장호르몬결핍증과 갑상선기능저하증 및 다른 내분비적 장애가 발생할 수 있으므로 지속적인 정기 추적 관찰 및 적절한 치료가 필요하다.

Purpose : In medulloblastoma, craniospinal radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy improves the prognosis of tumors but results in significant endocrine morbidities. We studied the endocrine morbidity, especially growth pattern changes. Methods : The medical records of 37 patients with medulloblastoma were reviewed retrospectively for evaluation of endocrine function and growth. We performed the growth hormone stimulation test in 16 patients whose growth velocity was lower than 4 cm/yr. Results : The height loss was progressive in most patients. The height standard deviation score (SDS) decreased from $-0.1{\pm}1.3$ initially to $-0.6{\pm}1.0$ after 1 year(P<0.01). Growth hormone deficiency(GHD) developed in 14 patients. During the 2 years of growth hormone(GH) treatment, the improvements of height gain or progressions of height loss were not observed. Twelve patients(32.4 percent) revealed primary hypothyroidism. One of six patients diagnosed with compensated hypothyroidism progressed to primary hypothyroidism. Primary and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism were observed in two and one patients respectively. There was no proven case of central adrenal insufficiency. Conclusion : Growth impairment developed frequently, irrespective of the presence of GHD in childhood survivors of medulloblastoma. GH treatment may prevent further loss of height. The impairment of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal and hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroidal axis is less common, while central adrenal insufficiency was not observed.
