초록

Background: 최근 제안된 조기위암에 대한 미세침습 치료법은 내시경점막하박리술(endoscopic submucosal dissection, ESD)혹은 종양 부위를 전층 절제(endoscopic full-thickness gastric resection, EFTGR)을 통해 위 절제를 최소화하고 동시에 복강경을 통해 감시림프절 절제(sentinel lymph node dissection, SLND)를 시행함으로써 그 가능성을 제시했었고, 이들을 각각 ESN (endoscopic submucosal dissection with laparoscopic sentinel lymph node dissection), Hybrid-NOTES (endoscopic full-thickness gastric resection with laparoscopic sentinel lymph node dissection)라고 명명하였다. 본 고에서는 림프절 전이 위험성이 높은 조기위암에 대해 이 두 치료법을 시행받은 환자들의 장기 추적 결과를 평가하고자 한다. Methods: 이 후향적 연구는 2009년 1월부터 2013년 5월 중에 ESN 혹은 Hybrid-NOTES를 시행받은 환자들이 포함되었다. Results: 총 42명의 환자들이 연구에 포함되었고, ESN 21명, Hybrid-NOTES 21명이 각각 등록되었다. ESN을 시행받은 21명 중 4명, Hybrid-NOTES를 시행받은 5명은 이 미세침습수술 후 추가 수술을 받아야 했다. 아직까지 이 수술 후 사망 환자는 없지만 ESN을 시행받은 1명의 환자에서 림프절 전이가 발견되어 항암치료를 받고 있다. Conclusion: 조기위암의 미세침습 수술인 ESN 혹은 Hybrid-NOTES는 좋은 장기 추적 결과를 보여주었다. 이 방법들은 향후 림프절 전이 위험성이 높은 조기위암에서 ESD와 gastrectomy 사이에 속한 환자들에게 좋은 치료법이 될 수 있을 거라고 생각된다.

Background: Recently, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with laparoscopic sentinel lymph node dissection, named ESN or endoscopic full-thickness gastric resection with laparoscopic sentinel lymph node dissection, named Hybrid-natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) was suggested the possibility of minimally invasive treatment for patients with early gastric cancer (EGC) who were beyond the indication of ESD. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of ESN or Hybrid-NOTES. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients treated with these therapies from January 2009 to May 2013 in terms of short- and long-term outcomes. Each patient was diagnosed with EGC but was not included in ESD indications and had the high risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM). Results: A total of 42 patients with EGC treated by ESN or Hybrid-NOTES. Of the 21 patients who underwent ESN, a total of 4 patients underwent additional gastrectomy, 1 with LNM, 1 with surgical complication, and 2 with noncurative resection. Of the 21 patients who underwent Hybrid-NOTES, a total of 5 patients underwent additional surgery, 1 with LNM, 2 with surgical complication, and 2 with noncurative resection. Overall survival was 100% over a mean follow-up of 75 months, but 3 patients underwent ESD or gastrectomy with metachronous lesion. And 1 patient who had received ESN was found to have a metastatic lymph node and undergo palliative chemotherapy. Conclusion: ESN or Hybrid-NOTES showed favorable short-and long-term outcomes. These methods may be utilized as a bridge between ESD and gastrectomy in the case of EGC which is more likely to have LNM beyond the ESD indications.
