The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence and predictors for axillary lymph node metastasis in patients with invasive breast carcinoma of 1 cm or less. Methods: A retrospective analysis was made of 144 patients who underwent resection of primary tumor and axillary procedures between January 1999 and August 2009 for breast cancer of 1 cm or less in size. Patients were divided into two groups according to axillary node metastasis and clinicopathologic factors including age, palpable mass during physical examination, location of tumor, multifocality, tumor size, histologic type, extensive in situ component, histologic grade, nuclear grade, lymphovascular invasion, hormonal receptor status, and C-erbB-2 status were compared. Results: Twenty-eight (19.4%) patients of all 144 patients had metastasis in the axillary lymph node. Three variables such as multifocality (P=0.023), histologic high grade (P=0.033), presence of lymphovascular invasion (P=0.002) were found to be significant in univariate analysis. In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, however, multifocality (P=0.022) and presence of lymphovascular invasion (P=0.007) were independent predictors of axillary lymph node metastasis. Conclusion: The incidence of axillary lymphnode metastasis of breast cancer 1 cm or less in size was 19.4%. Although the size of invasive breast carcinoma is less than 1 cm, if the tumor presented lymphovascular invasion or multifocality, axillary lymph node dissection might prove better than sentinel node biopsy.

ER, PR, C-erbB-2 발현상태는면역조직화학염색법 (immunohistochemistry) 을이용하여 ER, PR은핵염색이 10% 이상일때양성, C-erbB-2는세포막전체염색이 10% 이상일때양성으로정의하였다. ER 검사에서사용된항체는 NCL-ER-6F11 (Novocastra laboratories Ltd. Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK) 이며, PR은 NCL-PGR (Novocastra laboratories Ltd., Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK) 항체를사용하였다. ER 또는 PR 둘중한개라도양성이면호르몬수용체양성으로, 두수용체모두음성이면호르몬수용체음성으로분류하였다. C-erbB-2에대한검사는 2007년이전에는 NCL- CB11 (Novocastra laboratories Ltd, Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK) 를사용하였고, 이후에는 BenchMark R XT (Ventana medical system, USA) 자동면역염색기기를이용하였다. 일차항체는 polyclonal rabbit anti-human c-erbb-2 oncoprotein (A0485, DakoCtyomation,Glostrup, Denmark) 을 1:1,000으로희석하여사용하였다. 겨드랑이림프절전이유무에따른두군의비교에서단변량분석은변수의특성에따라 chi-square test 또는 independent t test를이용하였고, 다변량분석은 multiple logistic regression test를시행하였다. SPSS version 17.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) 을사용하여신뢰구간 (confidence interval) 95%, P-value 0.05 이하일때통계적의미가있다고정의하였다. 결과 겨드랑이림프절전이는전체 144명의환자중 28명 (19.4%) 에서관찰되었다. 평균나이는 49.9세이며, 신체검사상에촉지성종양이 75명 (52.4%) 이고, 상외측에종양이위치하였던환자는 60명 (24.7%) 이었다. 다발성종양은 11명 (7.6%) 에서관찰되었으며, 종양의평균크기는 6.8 mm이고, T1mic 17명 (11.8%), T1a 29명 (20.1%), T1b 98명 (68.1%) 이었다. 침윤성관암이 125명 (86.8%), 침윤성엽상암이 5명 (3.5%), 기타조직유형이 14명 (9.7%) 이었다. EIC를보인경우는 102명 (70.8%) 이며, 조직학적등급이 3등급이었던경우는 45명 (36%), 핵등급이 3등급이었던경우는 58명 (46%) 이었다. 림프관및혈관침범은 27명 (23.5%) 에서관찰되었다. 호르몬수용체양성은 104명 (73.3%), 음성은 38명 (26.4%), C-erbB-2 과발현은 26명 (19%) 에서나타났다 (Table 1).

Veronesi 등 (4) 과 Lovrics 등 (5) 은 FDG-PET 결과와감시림프절생검을비교하여 96 97% 의특이도 (specificity) 와 88 97% 의양성예측도 (positive predictive value) 를보고하였다. 즉, 술전에 FDG-PET 결과림프절전이가없다면감시림프절생검을실시하여림프절병기를결정하고, 반대로 FDG-PET 상에열점 (hot uptake) 이보인다면감시림프절생검보다는오히려고식적액와림프절박리술을바로실시하기를권유하였다. Ahn 등 (6) 은 FDG-PET CT와초음파를추가한다면더정확하게겨드랑이림프절전이상태를예측할수있다고밝혔다. T1 유방암에서수술후겨드랑이림프절전이가발견되는경우는 3 37% 로보고된다.(7-11) Markopoulos 등 (13) 은겨드랑이림프절박리술을시행한 195명을대상으로 T1a 종양에서는림프절전이가관찰되지않으나, T1b는 25.7%, T1c는 33.8% 의높은전이율을보여겨드랑이림프절박리술을생략할수있는군은 T1a 뿐이며종양의크기가 0.5 cm 이상의유방암환자는모두겨드랑이수술이필요하다고주장하였다. Chen 등 (15) 은감시림프절생검을실시한 T1 환자 257명을대상으로 T1a는 13.5%, T1b는 20.4%, T1c 는 35.9% 의겨드랑이림프절전이를보이고다변량분석결과가장큰영향을주는독립인자는종양의크기였다. Rivadeneira 등 (16) 은 1 cm 이하크기유방암환자 919명을 대상으로겨드랑이림프절박리술을실시하여약 18.0% 의액와림프절전이율을보고하고 1 cm 이하유방암에서도겨드랑이수술을반드시시행할것을주장하였다. 이들은또한종양의크기를 1 mm 단위의연속변수를사용하여다변량분석을실시하였는데종양의크기가증가할수록더높은겨드랑이전이율을보였다. 본연구또한 1 cm 이하유방암환자를대상으로겨드랑이림프절전이율은약 19.4% 로비슷하였으나종양의크기에따른림프절전이율은통계학적의미가없었다. 종양의크기외에 T1 유방암환자의림프절전이에영향을주는임상병리학적특징들은여러문헌에서다양하게보고되지만, 높은조직학적등급 (8,9,14,16) 림프혈관침범 (9-12,14-16,17) 에스트로겐수용체음성, 삼중복음성 (Triple negative),(17) 젊은연령,(8,14,16) 촉지성,(9,12,14,17) 종양의다발성등 (18) 으로요약된다. 본연구에서도단변량분석결과겨드랑이림프절전이에영향을주는인자는다발성종양, 림프혈관침범, 조직학적등급으로나타났으나다변량분석에서는조직학적등급은통계학적의미가없었다. Guarnieri 등 (19) 은조직학적등급과림프혈관침범의유무에따라 T1a, T1b 유방암에서수술을두단계로실시하도록권유하였다. 즉, 종양절제를우선시행하여병리학적결과혈관침범이없고, 조직학적등급이낮다면겨드랑이수술을피할수있고, 그렇지않다면두번째수술로서겨드랑이수술을권유하였다. 초음파와자기공명영상 (MRI) 의발달로종양의주덩어리 (main tumor) 외에같은구역또는다른구역에서우연히발견되는위성병변 (satellite leision) 때문에유방보존술이불가능한경우를임상에서종종접하게된다. 다발성유방암에서림프절전이율은종양의크기에따라다양하지만 T1 크기로제한하였을때약 48 61% 로단발성종양이약 35 38% 에비해높은전이율을보였다.(20,21) Coombs와 Boyages(22) 는다발성종양에서림프절전이율이높은것은종양의부피 (burden) 와연관있음을설명하고,

5 14 J Korean Surg Soc. Vol. 80, No. 1 다발성종양에서 T 병기는최대직경이아니라각각종양의직경을합해야한다고주장하였다. 다발성종양에있어서겨드랑이수술또한여전히논란이되고있다. Giard 등 (23) 은다발성유방암의감시림프절생검에대한다기관전향적연구로서, T1 종양일때감시림프절위음성율이 13.6% 로감시림프절생검보다는고식적겨드랑이림프절박리술을권유하였다. 그러나, 다른후향적보고에서는다발성종양의감시림프절생검의위음성율은 7 8% 로단발성종양과유사하므로감시림프절생검술을실시하여도좋다고결론지었다.(24,25) 본연구에서는다발성종양이단발성종양에비해상대위험도 5.92로서림프절전이의위험이매우높았다. 이는종양의크기가작더라도초음파또는 MRI 상에다발성병변이의심되거나, 수술전에조직학적으로진단된다발성유방암이라면감시림프절생검보다는고식적겨드랑이림프절박리술이더유익하리라사료된다. 결론적으로 1 cm 이하크기의유방암에서술전검사상림프관및혈관침범또는다발성의소견이있다면감시림프절생검보다고식적겨드랑이림프절박리술을고려하는것이좋겠다. 향후다기관전향적연구를통해 1 cm 이하유방암의겨드랑이림프절전이에대한위험인자를선별할필요가있을것이다.
