초록
폐에 발생하는 육종양암종은 매우 드문 악성 폐종양으로 예후가 좋지 않은 것으로 알려져 있다. 저자들은 운동시 호흡곤란을 주소로 내원한 환자에서 경피적세침폐생검으로 확진한 육종양암종 1예를 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.
Sarcomatoid carcinomas of the lung are rare malignant biphasic tumors, which contain both a malignant epithelial component and a sarcomatoid component. The majority of patients are men and the mean age of onset is 60 years at the time of diagnosis. A metastasis to the regional lymph nodes and to distant organs is common. The clinical course of patients with this neoplasm is aggressive, with an overall 5-year survival rate approximating 20%. A sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung is often observed in the large bronchi and peripheral lung field than in the trachea, and the clinical manifestations are related to their specific location. We report a case of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung in a 79-year-old man who presented with dyspnea on exertion.
