Abstract

Primary chest wall tumors originate from soft tissue, bone or cartilage of the chest wall and it comprises 1∼2% of all primary tumors. Resection of tumor is often indicated for chronic ulceration or pain, and long-term survival might be achieved after surgery depending on the histology and the surgical procedure. Material and Method: Retrospective study of 125 primary chest wall tumors (86 benign, 39 malignant) operated between Sep. 1976 to Mar 2001 were reviewed and their clinical outcomes were analyzed. Follow-up data were collected at the outpatient clinic. Result: All patients with benign tumors were treated by excision without recurrence or death, and most malignancies were treated by wide resection. Malignant fibrous histiocytoma and chondrosarcoma constituted 46.2% of the malignant neoplasm. There was no operative death. The overall 3-year survival for patients with primary malignant neoplasm was 76.0%, and the 10-year survival was 60.5%. All deaths were disease-related and the tumor recurred in 11 patients. There was no significant difference in survival between patients with resection margins less than 4 cm and those with resection margins greater than 4 cm. Conclusion: Chest wall resection offers excellent results for benign chest wall tumors and substantial long-term survival for malignant diseases. Safe resection margin of 4 cm or more did not correlate with the survival rate although the tumor recurrence correlated with poor survival.

원발성 흉벽종양은 흉부의 연조직이나 뼈 또는 연골에서 다양하게 발생할 수 있는 종양으로서 전체 원발성 종양의 약 l∼2%를 차지한다. 수술적 절제술은 만성 궤양이나 심한 통증이 있는 환자에서 효과적인 치료법이며 조직학적 진단 및 수술방법에 따라서 장기생존이 가능할 수 있다. 대상 및 방법: 1976년 9월부터 2001년 3월까지 원발성 흉벽종양을 가진 125명(양성종양 86명, 악성종양 39명) 의 환자에서 수술적 절제술을 시행하여 수술결과와 예후에 영향을 미치는 요소들을 해석하고자 하였다. 결과: 양성종양은 수술적 치료로 재발 없이 완전 치료가 되었으며 악성종양은 대부분 광범위 절제술을 시행하였으며 환자에 따라 수술 후 보조요법을 병행하였다. 양성종양 중 신경초종이 가장 많았으며 악성종양은 악성섬유성조직구종이 가장 많은 빈도를 보였다. 악성종양의 경우 3년 생존율이 76.0%, 10년 생존율이 60.5%이었다. 수술과 관련된 사망은 없었으며 외래 추적 중 사망한 환자의 원인은 원격 전이에 의한 장기부전 이었으며 11명에서 재발하였다. 안전거리 절제면을 4 cm 이상과 미만으로 구분하였을 때 두 군간의 생존율에 차이가 없었다. 결론: 양성종양의 경우 수술적 치료로 재발 없이 완치가 가능하였으며 악성종양도 비교적 좋은 장기생존율을 나타내었다. 안전거리 4 cm는 예후에 미치는 영향은 발견할 수 없었으나 재발 시에는 예후가 좋지 않았다.
