식도에서 간엽세포 종양과 상피성세포 종양의 공존은 매우 드물다 저자들은 식도 평활근종의 점막표면에 위치한 편평상피세포암 수술 치험 1예를 보고한다. 내원 3개월 전부터 음식 섭취시 연하통을 주소로 내원한 76세 남자 환자에서 수술 전 검사로 석회화를 동반한 식도 점막하종양을 의심하였고, 종양을 덮고 있는 불규칙한 점막의 식도내시경 조직검사로 편평상피세포암의 공존을 수술 전에 진단하였다. 우측 개흥과 개복으로 흉부 식도절제술 후 식도-위 문합을 시행하였다. 수술 25개월이 경과한 현재까지 재발의 소견 없이 정상 생활을 하고 있다. 두 종양 사이의 관계의 가능성과 빈도에 대해 문헌 고찰을 한다.

Although surgery was the standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers, endoscopic resection is now a standard treatment for early gastrointestinal cancers without regional lymph node metastasis. High-definition white light endoscopy, chromoendoscopy, and image-enhanced endoscopy such as narrow band imaging are performed to assess the edge and depth of early gastrointestinal cancers for delineation of resection boundaries and prediction of the possibility of lymph node metastasis before the decision of endoscopic resection. Endoscopic mucosal resection and/or endoscopic submucosal dissection can be performed to remove early gastrointestinal cancers completely by en bloc fashion. Histopathological evaluation should be carefully made to investigate the presence of risk factors for lymph node metastasis such as depth of cancer invasion and lymphovascular invasion. Additional treatment such as radical surgery with regional lymphadenectomy should be considered if the endoscopically resected specimen shows risk factors for lymph node metastasis. This is the first Korean clinical practice guideline for endoscopic resection of early gastrointestinal cancer. This guideline was developed by using mainly de novo methods and encompasses endoscopic management of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, early gastric cancer, and early colorectal cancer. This guideline will be revised as new data on early gastrointestinal cancer are collected.
