역행성 호흡 운동을 방지 하고 종격동내의 구조물을 보호하는 흥곽의 기능을 고려해야 하기 때문에 흉벽 재건은 임상적으로 간단하지가 않다. 영남대 학교병원 흉부외과에서는 교통사고로 좌측 전흉부의 전층에 걸친 흉벽 결손을 가진 37세 남자 환자에게 흉벽 재건술을 시행하였다. 외상직후 변연 절제와 지혈을 위해 1차 응급 수술이 시행되었고, 수술후25일째 흉벽 재건을 위한 2차수술을 시행하였다. 흉벽재건에는 흉배동맥을 피판경으로한 광배근피판과 좌측 대퇴부로부터 피부이식이 이용되었다. 흉벽 재건 수술후 인공호흡기 보조없이 자가 호흡이 가능하였으며, 수술후 3개월에 시행한 폐기능 검사(FVC, FEV1.0)는 예측치의 80%로 나타났다. 광배근피판을 이용한 흉벽 재건의 수술후 경과는 생리학적, 해부학적 그리고 미학적으로도 만족할만 하였다.

Malignant lymphoma in chest wall is a rare form of extranodal variety as occasionally localized tumor. The primary site is suggested from rib or soft tissue, but the incidence in rib is higher than soft tissue. The patient, a male, aged 32, noted a swelling and pain over the left lower posterior chest from 3 months prior to admission. Roentgenograms revealed bony destruction in left 9, & 19th ribs posteriorly and associated chest wall mass which was ill defined uncleared margination. Under diagnosis of malignant tumor, the operation was performed and the tumor mass resected widely with en bloc technique than the fascia lata was grafted at chest wall defect. The histology of specimen was disclosed as malignant lymphoma, non-Hodgkin`s diffuse lymphocytic poorly differentiated form. The radio-and chemotherapy were combined post-operatively and the complete remission is acquired.

7년전 누두흉으로 Ravitch수술을 받은 13세 남아가 이차성 전흉벽기형과 운동시 호흡곤란(NYHA II)을 주소로 내원하였다. 술전 심초음파상 이차성 심방중격결손이 진단되었고, 폐기능검사상 WC가 2.03 L(72%), FEVI이 1.82 L(71%)로 감소된 것외에는 술전 검사상 이상소견은 없었다. 수술은 앙와위에서 흉골을 보존한 채 정 중흉절개를 통해 흉근판을 만든후 기형늑연골 잔유물과 섬유조직을 제거하여 이차성 전흉벽기형을 교정한 후 흉골을 90$^{\circ}$로 세움으로써 개심술을 위한 시야를 확보하여 심방중격결손을 동시에 교정하였다. 술후 1일째 급성호흡부전이 있어 기관내 재삽관 및 기계호흡을 시행하였고 술후 6일째 인공호흡기를 제거하였다. 환아는 합병증없이 회복되어 술후 19일째 퇴원하였다.

We have experienced a case of congenital heart disease who developed pulmonaryaspergilloma and then had open heart surgery associated with pulmonary resection. A 53 year old female patient was admitted of fever and chill without cyanosis and hemoptysis. Chest CT showed cavitary lesion with enhanced wall in right midle lung and huge pulmonary artery. Secundum atrial septal defect was identified by echocardiography and catheterization, preoperatively. The patient was identified finally as atrial septal defect associated with pulmonary aspergilloma, in operation and pathology.

The authors performed rigid reconstruction using the sandwich technique for full-thickness chest wall defects by using two layers of acellular dermal matrix and bone cement. We assessed six patients who underwent chest wall reconstruction. Reconstruction was performed by sandwiching bone cement between two layers of acellular dermal matrix. In all patients, there was no defect of the overlying soft tissue, and primary closure was performed for external wounds. The average follow-up period was 4 years (range, 2-8 years). No major complications were noted. The sandwich technique can serve as an efficient and safe option for chest wall reconstruction.

48세 남자 환자의 전종격동을 깊게 침범하며 흉골에서 발생한 거대한 연골육종을 치료하였다. 환자는 흉골의 연골육종과 주변의 정상변연 4cm을 포함하여 광범 위 절제술을 받았으며 그 종양 자체 는 양측의 쇄골과제 1,2,3늑연골을 포함하는 15× 16X10cm크기였다. 종양의 광범위 절제술후 남은 결손 부위는 매우 컸으며 흉벽 재건술을 Marled mesh와 methylmethacrylate와 wire steels로 겹싸는 sandwich식의 방법으로 시행하였고 연부조직의 재건술 또한 대흉근을 이용한 근피 판 치환술을 시행하 였다. 그러나 환자는 수술후 결핵성 종격동염이 발생되었고 다량의 농이 배출되었다. 재수술은 흉벽 재건술시의 사용되었던 이물질 모두를 제거하고 괴사성 조직의 소파술과 배농술을 시행하였다. 환자는 1 년간 항결핵제요법을 시행하였으며 완치되었기에 문헌고찰과 보고하는 바이다.

Primary neoplasms of the ribs and sternum are rare. Most primary bony chest wall neoplasms are malignant, and chondrosarcoma is the most common malignancy in this location The etiology of chondrosarcoma is unknown. Definitive diagnosis of chondrosarcoma can only be made pathologically. The natural history of chest wall chondrosarcoma is one of slow growth and local recurrence. Most tumors of the sternum require wide resection and reconstruction procedures, with potentially serious postoperative problems. Advances in chest wall reconstruction primarily through refinement in muscle transposition and clarification of the functional anatomy and blood supply of trunk muscles, has resulted in a more aggressive resection of the these tumors . Recently we experienced a case with chondrosarcoma of the sternum. A 56 year-old man was admitted to our hospital due to painless, slowly enlarging mass at the left sternoclavicular junctional area. The chest radiograph strongly suggested an underlying cartilaginous neoplasm owing to the appearance of typical flocculent and curvilinear calcifications within the lesion. On CT of the chest, the tumor exhibited a scalloped or lobulated contour, hypodensity of the nonmineralized component in comparison to adjacent muscle, and characteristic stippled cartilaginous matrix mineralization, also typical for cartilaginous neoplasm. The patient underwent wide resection of the chest wall tumor include with a 2-3cm margin of normal tissue on all sides and the thoracic skeletal defect was reconstructed with polytetrafluoroethylene [Gore-Tex] soft-tissue patch. Soft tissue reconstructive procedure was done with the pectoralis major muscle transposition. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and discharged without adjuvant treatment such as radiation and chemotherapy.

A 36 years old male patient underwent en bloc excision of the primary chondrosarcoma arising from 8th, 9th and 10th ribs of the chest wall. The tumor was 11.5 x 7.5 x 6.5 cm in size and was 320 gram in weight. After en bloc excision of the tumor, the defect of the chest wall was reconstructed with pedicle muscle flap and using compression dressing for 2 weeks, there happened no respiratory problem. And so we made a case report and review of literature.

A 75-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of a pericardial effusion.After 3 L of blood-stained pericardial fluid was drained, clinical examination together with echocardiography and chest computed tomography showed a tumor in the right atrium. At operation a pedunculated vascular tumor was found with a broad base which was embedded in the atrial wall and extended into the pericardium.A wide resection was performed resulting in a large defect of the right atrial wall. The defect was reconstructed with a pericardial patch. The patient did well postoperatively, but bloody pleural effusion developed later, presumably because of pulmonary metastasis. The patient died 2 months after surgery as a result of respiratory failure.
