Abstract
WDFA(Well-differentiated fetal adenocarcinoma) histologically resembles pulmonary blastoma. It is also thought to be a subtype of pulmonary blastoma, which has differentiated epithelial features resembling the fetal lung among its epithelial features and sarcomatous features. We recently encounted a patient who underwent surgery for WDFA. A 19-year-old man had a mass shadow in the upper lobe of the left lung. The tumor was diagnosed as pulmonary blastoma as a result of fine needle aspiration biopsy, and left upper lobe lobectomy was performed. No sarcomatous features was observed on postoperative histologic assessment, and the patient was diagnosed as having WDFA. This case is reported with a discussion of the literatures.
잘 분화된 태아성 선암종은 조직학적으로 폐모세포종과 유사하여, 폐모세포종의 한 분류로 생각되어지며, 육종성 형태와 상피성 형태 사이의 태아성 폐에 유사한 상피성 형태를 보인다. 최근 저자등은 19세 남자 환자에서 폐의 좌상엽 부위에 발생한 종괴에 미세 흡침 조직 검사상 폐모세포종으로 나와 좌상엽 절제술을 시행하였고, 술 후 시행한 조직 검사상 육종성 형태는 없었으며, 잘 분화된 태아성 선암종으로 확진되어 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
