Abstract

A metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma originating from the parotid gland is a rare form of neoplasm. The neoplasm is a histologically benign, but clinically controversial entity. Herein, a case report of a pleuro-pneumonectomy of a metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma in the right lung is described. A 57-year-old man, who underwent resection of parotid gland due to a pleomorphic adenoma, presented with multiple metastases on the right lung, mediastinum, pericardium and intercostal muscle. The metastatic lesions were composed of a benign pleomorphic structure.

이하선에 생기는 전이성 다형태 선종은 매우 드문 질환으로서 조직학적으로는 양성이나 임상적으로는 전이를 일으키는 논쟁의 여지가 많은 병변이다. 저자들은 이하선의 다형성 선종으로 절제술을 경험한 57세 남자에게서, 4년 후에 흉막과 우측 폐, 종격동, 심낭, 늑간근의 다발성 전이를 진단하여 전이암 절제술을 경험하였기에 보고하고자 한다.
