Summary: | Although intrathoracic liver in association with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia has been well documented, the finding of intrathoracic ectopic liver tissue in the presence of an intact diaphragm is an extremely rare congenital anomaly. We have experienced a case of intrathoracic ectopic liver without any diaphragmatic hernia. A 37-year-old woman was admitted for the treatment of an incidentally detected right lung mass, A chest computed tomography scan revealed a right lower lobe lung mass close to the diaphragm, and this was suspicious for bronchial carcinoid tumor. Upon surgery, 2 round solid masses $3.5{\times}3.5 cm$ and a $2.0{\times}2.0 cm$ in size were noted, with their bottoms attached to the diaphragm dome. The masses were completely resected. Histologically, they were confirmed to be intrathoracic ectopic livers. The patient had an uncomplicated postoperative course. 선천성 횡격막 탈장이 동반된 흉강내 이소성 간은 드물지 않게 보고되고 있으나 횡격막 탈장이 동반되지 않은 흉강내 이소성 간은 매우 희귀한 선천성 질환이다. 횡격막 탈장이 동반되지 않은 흉강내 이소성 간을 체험하였기에 증례를 보고한다. 환자는 37세 여자로, 우연히 발견된 폐종양의 치료를 위해 내원하였다. 흉부 컴퓨터단층촬영 스캔상 우측 폐하엽에 횡격막에 인접해 있는 폐종양이 확인되었으며, 기관지 유암종을 의심하고 수술을 시행하였다. 수술 소견상, 우측 횡격막 중심부에 지름 3.5cm와 2.0 cm정도의 2개의 둥근 종양이 위치하고 있었으며, 종양의 절제를 시행하였다. 병리학적으로 흉강내 이소성 간으로 확진되었고, 환자는 수술 후 특별한 문제없이 퇴원하였다. |
