Abstract

Pleuropulmonary bastoma (PPB) is a rare intrathoracic malignant neoplasm in children, differ from pulmonary blastoma in adults. PPB is usually aggressive and has wide-metastases at the time of diagnosis. The therapeutic medality of PPB is extensive surgical resection with neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy. We report a case of a cystic pieuropulmonary blastoma treated with surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy.

흉막폐아세포종은 소아에서 발생하는 아주 드문 흉강 내 원발성 종양으로 폐아세포종과는 다른 병리학적 소견을 가진다. 수술적 완전 절제가 우선적인 치료법이며, 빠른 진행 및 전이를 보이기 때문에 신보조항암요법, 보조항암요법 등의 다각적인 방법을 고려하여야 한다. 저자들은 수술적 절제 및 보조항암요법으로 치료한 흉막폐아세포종 1예를 보고한다.
