울산광역시 울주군 삼남면 가천리와 상천리 일원에 발달하는 양산단층대 중남부의 발달특성과 제4기단층을 기재한다. 이 지역에는 중생대 백악기의 퇴적암과 화강암의 경계부 근처에 양산단층대의 주단층대와 부단층대로 확인되는 대규모의 단층파쇄대가 북북동-서남서 내지 남-북의 주향에 거의 수직으로 발달하고 있다. 단층조선은 수평에 가까우며 단층대내의 구조에 의하면, 주로 우향의 주향이동운동이 우세하다. 한편, 상천리와 가천리에는 이들 기반암과 제4기의 하성 사력층의 경계부 부근에서 제4기단층이 2조 발달하고 있다. 이들은 가천 제1단층과 가천 제2단층으로 기존의 양산단층대 일부가 제4기에 재활동한 것으로, 북북동 방향의 주향에 동측으로 고각의 경사를 보인다 단층조선은 거의 수평이며, 제4기 역들이 단층끌림에 의해 배열된 상태나 단층엽리내의 구조에 의하면 우향의 주향이동성운동이 우세하다.

Background : A pulmonary tuberculoma is one of the most common causes of a solitary pulmonary lesion. Treating a tuberculoma is still controversial and there are few reports on antituberculosis chemotherapy. In this study, the clinical findings and changes in the size of tuberculomas on a radiograph after completing antituberculosis chemotherapy was investigated. Methods : The medical records, an chest radiographs of 18 pulmonary tuberculoma patients who were admitted to the Gachon medical school, Ghil medical center between April 1998 and August 2001, were reviewed. The symptomatic changes were recorded and the size of the tuberculomas following treatment were compared. To compare the size, the long distance of each tuberculoma on the chest radiographs were measured and the additional radiological findings of calcification, satellite nodules and cavities were investigated. Results : Fifteen patients were men and 3 were women. The median age was 46 (24-74). Among these 18 patients, 14 patients had clinical symptoms. The other 4 patients were diagnosed incidentally as during a routine chest radiograph. The mean size of the tuberculomas on the initial plain chest film was $4.3{\pm}2.3cm$(range : 1.7-10 cm) and after 6 months treatment, it had decreased to $1.68{\pm}2.00cm$(range : 1.5-6.5 cm) (P<0.05). At least 6 months of antituberculosis chemotherapy resulted in the findings of a tuberculoma with a disappearance in 9, a decreased size in 4, and no change in 5 on the chest radiograph. Calcifications were found in 3 patients on the initial chest film and the chest CT and all calcified tuberculomas had disappeared after treatment. Conclusion : Although a pulmonary tuberculoma can remain as an inactive lesion for a long time, if it is confirmed by pathological or bacteriological methods, antituberculosis chemotherapy will be beneficial despite the presence of calcification.
