Abstract

An accessory cardiac bronchus (ACB) is a rare congenital anomaly of the trachobronchial tree. It rarely presents with symptoms, and is usually diagnosed incidentally by chest CT, bronchoscopy, or during surgery. We experienced a case of accessory cardiac bronchus found incidentally in the bronchus intermedius with lung cancer in the right lower lobe, and surgically removed.

폐암의 수술적 치료 중 발견된 부속 심장 기관지증은 국내에서 보고된바 없는 드문 병변로 이에 대해 보고하고자 한다. 53세 남자가 마른기침으로 타 병원을 내원하여 폐암으로 진단 받고 수술 위해 입원하였으며 수술 전 흉부전산화 단층 촬영상 심장 기관지가 발견되어 폐암과 동시 절제하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 이에 대해 보고하는 바이다.
