초록

우리나라에서 폐흡충증은 1960년대 까지만 해도 매우 흔하여 폐의 공동 병변을 일으키는 주요 감염 원인이었으나 현재는 매우 드문 감염병이 되었다. 16세 남자가 갑자기 열감, 기침, 객혈이 발생하여 가슴 X-선 영상검사를 실시하였고, 공기음영(air bubble)을 포함하고 있는 결절과 간유리 음영으로 세균학적으로 결핵균이 확인되지 않았으나 결핵으로 진단받고 항결핵제로 치료를 받았다. 항결핵제 치료 후에 더 이상 기침 등의 증상은 호소하지 않았으나 가슴 X-선 영상검사와 가슴 컴퓨터단층촬영검사에서 병변이 악화되어 비디오 흉강경 구역절제술을 실시 받았으며 조직검사에서 폐흡충란이 발견되어 폐흡충증으로 진단된 증례를 경험하여 보고하고자 한다.

Paragonimiasis was one of the most common causes of cavitary lung lesions until the 1960s, but now it has become a very rare disease in Korea. A 16-year-old boy presented with hemoptysis and several days of cough. His plain chest radiograph showed nodular opacity with a cavity in the left upper lung region. Although his symptoms disappeared after taking antituberculous drugs, his plain chest radiograph and computed tomography images after completion of therapy showed a new nodule with a cavity in the left lung field. Through video-assisted thoracoscopic wedge resection, Paragonimus eggs were found in the lung tissues.
