초록

목적 : 조기 성문암(T1-2N0M0) 환자들에 대한 일차적인 치료로서의 방사선치료의 역할과 치료결과에 영향을 미치는 예후인자들에 대한 분석을 통해 향후 치료방침을 세우는데 자료로 삼고자 연구를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 1987년 8월부터 1996년 12월까지 부산대학교병원 치료방사선과에서 조기 성문암으로 근치적 방사선 치료를 시행받은 환자 80명을 대상으로 후향적 분석을 시행하였다. T1 병기가 66명$(82.5\%)$, T2 병기가 14명$(17.5\%)$이였으며, 방사선치료는 6 MV X-선을 좌우 대칭조사야로 1일 1회 180 cGy 내지 2n cGy씩 주 5회 총 $ 6,000\~7,560\;cGy$ (중앙값 6,840 cGy)를 조사하였다. 치료기간은 40일에서 87일이었고 중앙값은 51일이었다. 모든 환자에서 최소 3년 이상 추적 조사하였다. 예후인자들에 대한 연구를 위해 T-병기, 종양의 위치, 총방사선량, 분할선량, 조사야의 크기 및 전체 방사선치료기간 등에 대한 단변량 및 다변량분석을 실시하였다. 결과 : 5년 생존율은 전체가 $89.2\%$였고 병기별로는 T1이 $90.2\%$, T2가 $82.5\%$였다. 국소제어율은 전체에서 $81.3\%$였고, T1 병기가 $83.3\%$, T2 병기가 $71.4\%$였으나 구제수술 후의 궁극적 국소제어율은 전체가 $91.3\%,\;T1\;94.5\%,\;T2\;79.4\%$$89.2\%$의 증가를 보였다. 음성보존율은 $89.2\%$로 T1과 T2에서 각각 $94.7\%$$81.3\%$로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 전체 환자 80명 중 15명에서 치료 후 재발을 보였고 이 중 국소재발(11/15, $73.3\%$)의 빈도가 가장 높았다. 예후 인자로 T-병기와 전체 치료기간이 단변량분석에서 통계적으로 의미를 주었으나 다변량분석에서는 전체 치료기간만이 유의한 인자였다. 결론 : 조기 성문암 환자의 치료에 근치적 방사선치료 및 구제수술의 조합은 높은 국소제어율과 함께 성문의 기능보존이라는 측면에서 효과적인 치료방법이라고 할 수 있으며, 치료결과에 영향을 줄 수 있는 예후인자들에 대해서는 추가적인 연구가 더 필요하겠으나 치료계획 단계에서부터 고려해야할 요소들로 생각된다.

Purpose : The Purpose of this study was to establish general guidelines for the treatment of patients with early glottic carcinoma (T1-2N0M0), by assessing the role of primary radiotherapy and by analyzing the tumor-related and treatment-related factors that have an influence on the treatment results. Materials and Methods : This retrospective study was composed of 80 patients who suffered from early glottic carcinoma and were treated by primary radiotherapy at Pusan National University Hospital, between August 1987 and December 1996. The distribution of patients according to T-stage was 66 for stage T1 and 14 for stage T2. All of the patients were treated with conventional radical radiotherapy using a 6MV photon beams, a total tumor dose of $60\~75.6\;Gy$ (median 68.4 Gy), administered in 5 weekly fractions of $1.8\~2.0\;Gy$. The overall radiation treatment time was from 40 to 87 days, median 51 days. All patients were followed up for at least 3 years. Univariate and multivariate analysis was done to identify the prognostic factors affecting the treatment results. Results : The five-years survival rate was $89.2\%$ for all patients, $90.2\%$ for T1 and $82.5\%$ for T2. The local control rate was $81.3\%$ for all patients, $83.3\%$ for T1 and $71.4\%$ for T2. However, when salvage operations were taken into account, the ultimate local control rate was $91.3\%,\;T1\;94.5\%,\;T2\;79.4\%$, reprosenting an increase of $8\~12\%$ in the local control rate. The voice preservation rate was $89.2\%,\;T1\;94.7\%,\;T2\;81.3\%$. Fifteen patients suffered a relapse after radiotherapy, among whom 12 patients underwent salvage surgery. We included T-stage, tumor location, total radiation dose, fraction size, field size and overall radiation treatment time as potential prognostic factors. T-stage and overall treatment time were found to be statistically significant in the univariate analysis, but in the multivariate analysis, only the over-all treatment time was found to be significant. Conclusion : The high cure and voice preservation rates obtained when using a procedure, comprising a combination of radical radiotherapy and salvage surgery, may make this the treatment of choice for patients with early glottic carcinoma. However, the prognostic factors affecting the treatment results must be kept in mind, and more accurate treatment planning and further optimization of the radiation dose are necessary.
