Abstract

We report a rare case of pulmonary artery sarcoma mimicking pulmonary artery thromboembolism in a 57-year-old man who suffered with 2-month dyspnea and exacerbated for 1 week. He was transferred from private clinic and he was diagnosed as acute pulmonary artery thromboembolism on the basis of chest CT. Chest CT, pulmonary artery angiogram, and perfusion scan were examined. We performed surgical excision with aid of CPB. The final pathologic report was that the mass was a pulmonary artery sarcoma. We experienced one case of pulmonary artery sarcoma and reported it with reference.

57세 남자 환자로 약 2개월 전부터 호흡곤란이 있어오다 1주일 전부터 악화되어 폐동맥 혈전색전증으로 오인된 폐동백 육종을 치험하여 보고하는 바이다. 환자는 지방병원에서 흉부전산화 단층촬영을 시행하였고 급성 폐동맥 색전증 진단 하에 본원으로 전원 되었다. 흉부전산화 단층촬영 및 폐동맥 혈관 조영술, 폐 관류 검사를 시행하였고 체외순환을 이용하여 수술적 치료를 시행하였다. 환자는 폐동맥 육종으로 최종 진단되었으며 이에 문헌과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
