초록

잠재성 유방암은 유방에 어떠한 증상없이 발생하는 유방암의 한 종류를 칭한다. 우리는 심한 호흡곤란과 상지부종을 보였던 72세 남성환자의 잠재성 유방암 증례를 보고한다. 전산화단층촬영에서는 양측 쇄골상 및 쇄골하 부위의 다수의 림프절 종대가 보였고 초음파 검사상 여러 개의 액와 림프절 종대가 발견되었다. 영상의학적 소견으로부터 임상의들은 림프종이나 불명의 원발성 암종의 파종성 전이를 의심했다. 액와 생검 표본으로부터 호르몬수용체 양성의 침윤성 유방암임이 밝혀졌다.

Occult breast cancer (OBC) is an asymptomatic condition. We report a case of OBC in a 72-year-old male patient who presented with severe dyspnea and upper extremity swelling. Computed tomography scan showed multiple lymph node enlargements in the supraclavicular and infraclavicular areas, and ultrasound scan showed multiple axillary lymph node enlargements. Based on the radiological findings, clinicians suspected lymphoma or disseminated metastasis from unknown primary malignancies. However, the axillary biopsy specimen revealed invasive breast cancer with hormonal receptor positivity.
