목적: 최근 위선종 및 조기위암에 대해 새로운 내시경적 치료법인 내시경 절개 점막하 박리법은 기존의 내시경적 점막절제술 보다 더 넓은 적응증을 가지고 있지만 시술의 난이도가 높고 합병증의 위험이 있어 보편적으로 시술되고 있지 않다. 이에 내시경 절개 점막하 박리법으로 치료한 위의 종양성 병변의 치료 성적을 바탕으로 그 임상적 유용성을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 내시경 절개 점막하 박리법을 시행한 164명의 환자들의 179개의 위종양성 병변에 대하여 완전절제 및 일괄절제 여부, 합병증, 재발 여부 등을 분석하였다. 결과: 179개의 병변은 조기위암 126예(70.3%), 선종 42예 (23.4%)였다. 병변의 침윤 깊이를 확인할 수 있었던 조기위암 420예는 각각 점막1층(sm1) 0.8% (1/120), 점막2층(m2) 38.3% (46/120), 점막3층(m3) 25% (57/120), 점막하1층(sm1) 11.7% (14/120), 점막하2층(sm2) 1.6% (2/120)이었다. 종양의 일괄절제율과 완전절제율은 각각 96.0%, 85.2%였다. 합병증은 천공 8예(4.4%), 출혈 38예(21.2%)가 발생하였으나, 천공 1예를 제외한 나머지는 비수술적으로 치료가 가능하였다. 결론: 본 연구에서 내시경 절개 점막하 박리법은 위종양성 병변의 근치적 치료에 비교적 안전하고 효과적인 술기이고, 향후 보다 장기간의 추적관찰을 통해 그 유용성이 검증되어야 할 것으로 생각한다.
Purpose: Endoscopic incision and submucosal dissection (EISD) is a technique that is being implemented for the resection of gastric adenomas and early gastric cancer (EGC). Since EISD requires a high degree of skill and experience, and due to its association with a moderate risk of gastrointestinal bleeding, its use has been limited. The objective of this study is to investigate the clinical benefits of EISD based upon clinical data on the EISD procedure. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted at Soonchunhyang University Hospital and it included 179 gastric adenoma and early gastric carcinoma lesions from 164 patients who had undergone an EISD from February 2003 to May 2005. Results: Among the total of 179 lesions, the distributions of EGC and adenomas were 70.3% (126/179) and 23.4% (42/179) respectively. The sizes of lesions were divided into 10 mm or less, $11{sim}20;mm,;21{sim}30;mm$ and greater than 31 mm and each rates are 10.0% (18/179), 46.3% (83/179), 30% (50/179) and 15.0% (28/179). Among 120 cases which could be measured depth of lesion in according to pathologic findings, m1 (0.8%, 1/120), m2 (38.3%, 46/120), m3 (25%, 57/120), sm1 (11.7%, 14/120), sm2 (1.6%, 2/120) were diagnosed as early stages of gastric cancer. The complete resection rate was 85.2% (150/176) and en-bloc resection rate was 96.0% (169/176). Complications as such as perforation and bleeding developed in 4.4%(8/179) and 21.2% (38/179), respectively. Conclusion: EISD is an effective in the endoscopic treatment for gastric adenoma and early gastric cancers. However, further evaluation of this method and long-term follow-up will be necessary for an evaluation of the recurrence rate after resection of a tumor.
