Abstract

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Octyl-2-cyanoacrylate (Dermabond$^{TM}$) as a topical skin adhesive for pediatric urologic open surgery. Methods: From August 2010 to August 2011, we retrospectively evaluated pediatric patients who underwent urologic open surgery at our institution. A total of 128 pediatric patients with 210 incisions used Dermabond$^{TM}$ for skin closure. Results: We divided the 128 patients into 3 groups according to type of surgery. Group 1 underwent hydrocelectomy (55 cases, 41.3%), Group 2 underwent orchiopexy (43 cases, 32.3%), Group 3 underwent penoplasty (35 cases, 26.4%). One hundred and twenty eight patients who underwent 133 surgeries in total, with a total of 210 incisions visited our outpatient department postoperatively, and a total of 5 wound complications (2.3%) occurred, but were simple inflammations and no dehiscence was observed. When analyzed according to groups, no wound problems occurred in Group 1 (0/55, 0%), one occurred in Group 2 (1/43, 2.3%) and four cases occurred in Group 3 (4/35, 11.4%) respectively. When re-analyzed according to wound locations, one occurred in an inguinal wound (1/120, 0.83%), none occurred in scrotal wounds (0/55, 0%), and four occurred in penile wounds (4/35, 11.4%). In Group 3, the incidence of penile wounds was significantly increased compared to other groups (P=0.008). All 5 wound problems were inflammatory and healed at an average of 13.8 days (13-15 days) with antibiotic ointment application only. Conclusion: Dermabond$^{TM}$ is feasible and safe topical skin adhesive alternative to standard skin suture in pediatric urologic surgery. However, further research about its efficacy and safety could be valuable in the future.

목적: 소아비뇨기과 관혈적 수술 시 피부봉합제로 사용된 Octyl-2-Cyanoacrylate (Dermabond$^{TM}$)의 효용성에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 2010년 8월부터 2011년 8월까지 1년 동안 서울대학교 어린이병원 소아비뇨기과에서 단일 술자에 의해 음낭수종절제술, 고환고정술, 음경성형술을 시행받은 환자들을 대상으로 상처 합병증 발생율을 후향적으로 비교분석하였다. 총 128명을 대상으로 210개의 절개 창에서 시행되었으며, 피부 봉합에 Dermabond$^{TM}$을 사용하였다. 모든 절 개창은 Dermabond$^{TM}$을 사용하기 전 흡수사를 이용하여 표피 밑 봉합 혹은 몇 개의 단순 봉합을 시행하였다. Dermabond$^{TM}$는 4 mm 너비로 얇게 두 번 사용되었으며, 건조시키는 과정이 포함되었다. 추가적인 붕대나 드레싱은 적용되지 않았다. 결과: 128명의 환자들을 수술 종류에 따라 세 그룹으로 나누었다(Group 1: 음낭수종 절제술, 55례, 41.3%; Group 2: 고환고정술, 43례, 32.3%; Group 3: 음경성형술, 35례, 26.4%). 수술 후 외래에서 추적 관찰한 210개의 절개창 중에서 총 5개(2.3%)에서 상처 합병증이 발생하였고, 이를 그룹별로 다시 분석해 보면 Group 1에서 0개(0/55, 0%), Group 2에서 1개(1/43, 2.3%), Group 3에서 4개(4/35, 11.4%)가 각각 발생하였다. 상처 부위별로 다시 분석해 보면 서혜부 상처 1개(1/120, 0.83%), 고환 상처 0개(0/55, 0%), 음경 상처 4개(4/35, 11.4%)가 각각 발생하였다. Group 3의 음경 상처에서 다른 군에 비해 통계적으로 의미 있게 증가되었다(P=0.008). Group 2와 3에서 상처 합병증이 발생한 환자들의 평균 나이는 각각 1세, 9.50세 이었고 상처 합병증이 없는 환자들의 평균 나이는 2.34세, 5.61세 였지만 통계적으로 의미는 없었다(P=0.639, 0.122). 5개의 상처 합병증은 모두 가벼운 염증반응이었으며, 항생제 연고만을 적용 후 술 후 평균 13.8일(13-15일) 후 모두 치료되었다. 결론: Dermabond$^{TM}$는 소아비뇨기과에서 음낭수종절제술과 고환고정술 시 피부봉합제로서 기존의 피부 봉합에 대한 대안으로 안전한 방법으로 사료된다. 하지만 음경성형술에서는 향후 더 많은 연구가 필요하다.
