초록

Warthin씨 종양은 이하선에 생기는 흔한 양성종양이다. Warthin씨 종양은 림프 세포성 간질이 있으므로 림프절 관련 질환들이 동반되어 생길 수 있으며 이때는 전형적인 Warthin씨 종양과 다르게 보일 수 있다. 이하선에 Warthin씨 종양만으로 이루어진 병변과 Warthin씨 종양 내에 결핵이 동반된 경우를 조직 소견과 컴퓨터단층촬영 소견을 비교 분석하였다. 환자는 표층적 이하선 절제술을 시행하였으며 항결핵제 복용 후 합병증 없이 퇴원하였다. 전형적인 Warthin씨 종양과 다르게 보이는 병변이 있으면 림프절 관련 질환이 Warthin씨 종양에 동반되어 있을 가능성도 염두해 두어야 한다.

Warthin's tumor (WT) is a common benign tumor of the parotid gland. Because WT has a lymphoid stroma, lymph node pathology can be superimposed on a WT, and its appearance can differ from that of a typical WT on imaging studies. We report on a rare case of a WT and tuberculosis within another WT in the same parotid gland, with a good correlation between histological sections and computed tomography scans. The patient underwent a superficial parotidectomy and received anti-tuberculous treatment. The patient recovered without complication. In summary, clinicians and radiologists should be concerned about lymph node pathology superimposed on a WT, particularly when an unusual imaging finding of a WT is suspected.
