상피암의 인접 골격근으로의 직접 전파는 많이 보고되었으나, 골격근으로의 원격전이는 드물고 특히 다발성 전이는 매우 드문 것으로 알려져 있다. 골격근내의 가변적인 혈류량, 근수축이나 난류성 혈류 등과 같은 물리적인 요인, 골격근내의 산성 환경, 젖산, 세포외 기질의 단백분해효소 억제인자 등이 골격근으로의 원격 전이를 억제하는 원인으로 제시되고 있다. 저자들은 최근 다발성 골격근 전이를 동반한 신장암(이행성 상피세포암) 1례를 경험하였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

Isolated head and neck metastasis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is relatively rare and metastasis to the temple area is very rare. Here, we present the case of a 51-year-old man who was diagnosed with RCC 2 years earlier and had a contralateral metastatic temple area lesion. The patient who was diagnosed with renal cell cancer and underwent a nephrectomy 2 years ago was referred to the plastic surgery department for a temple mass on the contralateral side. In the operative field, the mass was located in the temporalis muscle with a red-to-purple protruding shape. Biopsy of the mass revealed a metastatic RCC lesion. Computed tomography imaging showed a lobulated, contoured enhancing lesion. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging showed high-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the right temporalis muscle. The patient underwent wide excision of the metastatic RCC including the temporalis muscle at the plastic surgery department. Skeletal muscle metastasis of head and neck lesions is extremely rare in RCC. Isolated contralateral temporalis muscle metastasis in RCC has not been previously reported in the literature. If a patient has a history of malignant cancer, plastic surgeons should always consider metastatic lesions of head and neck tumors. Because of its high metastatic ability and poor prognosis, it is very important to keep this case in mind.

Skeletal muscle metastasis of gastric cancer is extremely rare and is associated with various symptoms. Here, we report on a 60-year-old woman with right hip pain after excessive walking. Two years earlier, the patient had been treated for advanced gastric cancer (surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy). Upon magnetic resonance imaging, diffuse muscle swelling and high signal intensity were observed in T2-weighted images of the right hip muscle. However, the FDG uptake in the right gluteal muscles was not obviously increased. Pathological examination of muscle biopsy revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma of stomach origin. The patient was treated with chemotherapy, and the swelling and pain in the right hip are progressively improving.

간세포암은 전 세계적으로 가장 흔한 악성 종양 중의 하나로, 간세포암의 간 외 전이는 주로 폐, 림프절, 뼈, 부신 등에 발생한다. 하지만 간세포암의 골격근 전이는 매우 드물고, 보고된 문헌도 흔치 않다. 42세 여성 환자가 우측 대퇴부에 압통이 동반된 연부조직 종괴를 주소로 내원하였다. 7년 전 간세포암과 폐전이가 진단되어 치료를 받은 기록이 있었으며 영상학적 검사 및 혈액 검사 결과 등에서 간세포암의 반막양근 내 전이가 의심되어 절개 생검술을 시행하였고 전이성 간세포암으로 밝혀져 광범위 절제술을 시행하여 치료하였다. 이를 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다.

Background: Metastatic cancer with invasion of skin, soft tissue and skeletal muscle is not common. Examples presenting as soft tissue masses could sometimes lead to misdiagnosis with delayed or inappropriate management. The purpose of current study was to investigate clinical characteristics in the involvement of metastatic cancer. Materials and Methods: A total of 1,097 patients complaining of skin or soft tissue masses and/or lesions were retrospectively reviewed from January 2012 to June 2013. Tumors involving skin, soft tissue and skeletal muscle of head and neck, chest wall, abdominal wall, pelvic region, back, upper and lower extremities were included in the study. Results: Fifty-seven (5.2%) patients were recognized as having malignancies on histopathological examination. The most common involvement of malignancy was basal cell carcinoma, followed by cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, sarcoma and melanoma. The most common anatomical location in skin and soft tissue malignancies was head and neck (52.6% of the malignancies). Four (0.36%) of the malignant group were identified as metastatic cancer with the primary cancer source from lung, liver and tonsil and the most common site was upper extremities. One of them unexpectedly expired during the operation of metastatic tumor excision at the scalp. Conclusions: Discrimination between benign and malignant soft tissue tumors is crucial. Performance of imaging study could assist in the differential diagnosis and the pre-operative risk evaluation of metastatic tumors involving skin, soft tissue and skeletal muscle.
