Adenoid cystic carcinoma is a distinctive neoplasm of the salivary gland and is the most common malignant tumor of submandibular gland. Although adenoid cystic carcinoma grows slowly, it shows aggressive tendencies with the ability to invade peripheral nerves. This ability enables an adenoid cystic carcinoma to extend along the nerves and spread long distances, resulting in high incidence of distant metastasis and recurrence. Therefore, radical resection is the treatment of choice for this carcinoma. We performed partial mandibulectomy, neck dissection and immediate reconstruction using a radial forearm free flap on a 54 year-old man with adenoid cystic carcinoma on the right submandibular gland. And as an adjunctive therapy, chemotherapy with cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil was used. We report our case along with a literature review.

Metastases to the jawbones are found predominantly in the mandible and are rare in relation to the overall spectrum of oral malignancy. Analysis of the literature shows that the most frequent primary sites are the breast, lung, kidney, thyroid, and prostate. Adenocarcinoma of the mandible, whether primary or metastatic, are usually difficult to diagnose clinically. We report a case illustrating the clinical, radiographic, and histologic findings of a metastatic lung adenocarcinoma of the anterior mandible in a 58-year-old male.

원발성폐지방육종은 극히 드문 질환일 뿐만 아니라, 국소재발이 빈번하고 발병 초기에 원격전이가 발생하여 예후가 불량한 질환이다. 지방육종의 치료를 위해서는 수술적인 절제가 우선적이나, 완전히 절제를 못하였을 경우 지방육종이 국소적으로 재발하게 되고 상당히 빠른 속도로 자라게 된다. 저자들은 원발성폐지방육종을 완전 절제하여 10개월 간 재발 및 전이가 없는 예를 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

점막 표피양 선종은 드문 종양으로 원발성 악성 기관지 선종의 1%와 모든 폐종양의 0.2%를 차지한다. 이종양은 기관지 자극이나 폐쇄에 의한 증상을 나타낸다. 원격 전이는 드물기 때문에 완절 절제술이 최선의 치료법이다. 이 종양의 예후는 종양의 조직학적 악성도에 의한다. 저자들은 기침과 피가래의 증상을 보인 15세의 점막 표피양 종양환자를 경험하였다. 환자는 흥부 전산화단층 촬영과 기관지 내시경하 생검 후 개흉술을 시행하여 이엽절제술에 의한 완전한 종양 절제를 받았다.

악성림프종과 병발한 폐의 편평세포암종을 1례 치험하였다. 환자는 19세 남자로 비 흡연자였다. 수술은 우 전폐절제술을 시행하였고 조직소견상 전이의 증거는 없었다. 조직의 확진은 면역조직화자염색을 통해 이루어졌다. 환자는 술후 3개월째 흉벽으로 림프종의 재발이 있었으며 술후 5개월째 호흡부전으로 사망하였다.

Pilomatrix carcinoma originates in the matrix cell and is marked by exophytic growing and common local recurrence. There is no established treatment for wide local invasion and metastasis of the pilomatrix besides wide surgical resection. We report a case of rapidly progressive pilomatrix carcinoma, which arose around an Eloesser open window with direct invasion to the adjacent tissue.

Leiomyosarcoma may occur anywhere in the body but rarely occurs in the heart or great vessels. Leiomyosarcoma may be managed by surgical resection with or without chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Owing to the high rate of metastasis and poor prognosis, a definitive treatment modality for leiomyosarcoma has not yet been suggested. This case study reports the surgical management of the recurrent leiomyosarcoma of the heart and the great vessels in a 63-year-old woman.

동시성 원발성 폐암은 전체 폐암의 1∼2%정도로 드문 암으로 술전 진단이 어렵고 수술 중이나 수술 후에 진단되는 경우가 대부분이다. 특히 동종 조직학적 특징을 나타내는 경우 진단이 어렵고 술전 폐에서 폐로 전이된 원격 전이로 오인될 수 있다. 본 교실에서는 수술 중 발견된 서로 다른 편편상피암을 가지는 동시성 원발성 폐암을 1례 경험하였기에 보고하는 바이다.

A 75-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of a pericardial effusion.After 3 L of blood-stained pericardial fluid was drained, clinical examination together with echocardiography and chest computed tomography showed a tumor in the right atrium. At operation a pedunculated vascular tumor was found with a broad base which was embedded in the atrial wall and extended into the pericardium.A wide resection was performed resulting in a large defect of the right atrial wall. The defect was reconstructed with a pericardial patch. The patient did well postoperatively, but bloody pleural effusion developed later, presumably because of pulmonary metastasis. The patient died 2 months after surgery as a result of respiratory failure.

Malignant pilomatricoma (pilomatrical carcinoma) is a rare, locally occurring malignant tumor with a high rate of recurrence in the case of incomplete excision. This tumor has two characteristics. First, recurrences of pilomatrical carcinoma are common; second, distant metastasis is rare, but if it occurs, it is very fatal. It has characteristic features of high mitotic counts, cellular atypia, and local invasion. Although fine needle aspiration and excisional biopsy could help to confirm this tumor diagnosis, pathologic findings are critical. Pilomatricomas have some characteristic features in histological aspect, such as epithelial islands of basaloid cells and shadow cells or ghost cell. Also, various types of immunohistochemical staining are used to confirm the diagnosis. Despite the lack of clear surgical criteria, treatment is a wide local excision with histologically clear resection margins with or without adjuvant radiotherapy.
