초록

목적: 주관절의 이소성 골형성은 수술이나 외상 후에 발생하는 흔한 합병증으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구는 주관절에서 발생하는 이소성 골형성의 재발 방지를 위해 예방적 방사선 치료를 시행한 환자들을 대상으로 후향적 분석을 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 주관절에 이소성 골형성으로 진단된 45명의 환자가 수술 후 방사선 치료를 시행 받았다. 이소성 골형성의 주된 원인은 골절과 외상이었고 수술 전 주된 증상은 가동관절범위의 제한이었다. 방사선 치료는 대부분의 환자에서 수술 후 2일 안에 시작하였고 1일 조사선량을 4 Gy씩 2회에 걸쳐 총 8 Gy를 조사하였다. 29명의 환자에서 $1{\sim}8$개월 동안 NSAID를 투약 받았다. 치료 후($60{\sim}145^{\circ}$) 측정한 가동관절범위에서 치료 전($0{\sim}135^{\circ}$)보다 통계적으로 유의한 향상을 보였고(p=0.028), MEPI를 이용한 기능지수 평가에서도 치료 전($15{\sim}90$)보다 치료 후($80{\sim}100$)에서 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하였다. 추적 관찰 시 방사선 사진의 판독이 가능했던 34명의 환자 중 2명에서 경미한 이소성 골형성의 재발이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 치료 후 합병증은 관찰되지 않았다. 결 론: 주관절의 이소성 골형성의 경우 수술 후 예방적 방사선 치료를 시행하는 것은 재발 방지를 위해 유용한 치료로 선택될 수 있고, 향후 더 많은 환자를 대상으로 연구가 진행되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: Heterotopic ossification is a well-known postoperative and post-traumatic complication of the elbow. We reviewed the treatment outcome for the use of low-dose radiation after surgical intervention of the elbow to prevent recurrence of heterotopic ossification (HO). Materials and Methods: Forty-five patients with HO underwent surgical intervention and postoperative radiotherapy of the elbow. The median age of the patients was 29 years ($16{\sim}75$ years), and 27 of the patients were men and 18 were women. The occurrence of HO was mainly due to surgery after fracture (24/45) and traumatic injury (21/45). Limitation of the range of motion (ROM) was the most common symptom of the patients. Thirty-four patients received postoperative radiotherapy with a dose of 8 Gy in 2 fractions; 5 patients received a dose of 10 Gy in 5 fractions and 6 patients received a dose of 7 Gy in 1 fraction. Postoperative radiotherapy was given on the first two postoperative days for most of the patients. Sixteen patients were not given anti-inflammatory medication and 29 patients were given NSAIDs for $1{\sim}8$ months. Results: After a median follow-up period of 18 months (range $6{\sim}72$ months), 41 patients showed clinical improvement and two patients did not show improvement. Assessment of the ROM showed a mean improvement from $0{\sim}135^{\circ}$ to $60{\sim}145^{\circ}$ (p=0.028), and assessment of the functional outcome according to MEPI was from ($15{\sim}95$) to ($80{\sim}100$) (p<0.0001). Two of the 34 patients that were followed-up with radiography had mild radiological recurrence of heterotopic ossification. No complications were observed after the radiotherapy. Conclusion: These results suggested that low-dose radiation administered after surgical intervention is safe and effective to prevent the recurrence of HO in the elbow.
