Abstract

Purpose: We analyzed the oncologic outcome of the malignant transformed benign giant cell tumor of bone. Materials and Methods: Between January 2000 and February 2012, 5 cases were referred with suspicious malignant transformation of benign giant cell tumor. No patients underwent radiation therapy. Results: After referral, all patients received the wide excision of the tumor and its' pathologic diagnosis were osteosarcoma. As classified by the location of tumor lesion, 3 cases were located in the distal femur, 1 case was in the distal radius and 1 case was in the proximal femur. The average latent period between diagnosis of benign giant cell tumor and diagnosis of secondary malignant giant cell tumor was 49.2 months. (range, 24-126 months) The mean follow-up period was 21.6 months. There were subsequent local recurrence in 2 cases and 3 patients developed distant metastasis. All patients with lung metastasis were dead. Conclusion: Malignant transformation of benign giant cell tumor of bone can be occurred within 5 years. Therefore, when benign giant cell tumor suspicious malignant transformation, it is necessary to do more aggressive treatment.

목적: 저자들은 골육종으로 악성 변화한 거대 세포종 환자의 종양학적 결과에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2000년 1월부터 2012년 2월까지 외부에서 양성 거대 세포종으로 진단받은 뒤 치료받고 재발한 후 악성 변화가 의심되어 본원으로 전원된 5명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 5명 환자 모두 방사선 치료를 시행받은 병력은 없었다. 결과: 모든 환자는 광범위 절제술 시행받았고, 술 후 조직병리 검사상 골육종으로 확진되었다. 원발성 병변은 원위 대퇴골 3명, 근위 대퇴골 1명, 원위 요골 1명이었다. 양성 거대 세포종으로 진단받고 악성 변화하기까지 기간은 평균 49.2개월(24-126개월)이었다. 평균 추시 기간은 21.6개월이었다. 본원에서 광범위 절제술을 시행 받았음에도 3명에서 원격 전이가 발생하였고, 이들 중 2명의 환자에서는 국소 재발도 확인되었다. 이들 3명 모두 사망하였다. 결론: 본 증례로 보아 적절한 치료를 받은 양성 거대 세포종 환자에서도 악성 변화는 5년 이내에 발생할 수 있다. 따라서, 정기적 추시 중 방사선학적으로 육종 변화가 의심되는 경우 보다 적극적인 치료가 필요하다고 생각된다.
