57 서 186 분, 2군에서 196 분, 3군에서 211 분으로 1군에서수술시간이적게소요되었다 (p<0.05). 총입원기간의비교에서는 1군이 16.8 일, 2군이 28.6 일, 3군이 29.8 일로 1군의입원기간이짧았다 (p <0.05) (Table 5). 고찰 양측에수술이필요한경우는전체의 1/3 이라는보고 18) 가있으나저자의경험상 2000 년 1월부터 7년간본원에서수술받은 750 명중양측을시행받은환자가 650 명 (86.7%) 으로양측에수술이필요한경우가더많았다 (Yoo J.H., unpublished data). 양측슬관절을수술하는시기로분류하면한번의마취하에양측슬관절을두수술팀이동시에하는방법 (simultaneous), 한쪽을끝내고순차적으로반대쪽을수술하는방법 (sequential), 한번의입원기간동안일정시간간격으로두번의마취를통하여시행하는방법 (staggered), 두번의입원으로수술하는방법 (staged) 이있는데, 한번의마취로양측을수술하는경우에환자의만족도, 입원기간및재활기간단축에따른효율성및경제성의장점에대하여수술시간의지연, 수술후출혈의증가, 수술후통증, 지방색전이나혈전에의한사망, 혹은합병증이많이있다는여러부정적인보고가있고 3,4,12,13) 특히기존의내과적질환이중증이거나고령의경우에그위험성이증가한다는보고가있다. 14,15) 수술시기에따른수술결과비교에서가장중요한것은사망률인데 Ritter 등의보고 10) 에의하면수술후처음 3개월동안은한번의마취하에동시에수술한경우가더높았고, 수술 1년후에는두번에나누어수술한경우에사망률이높았으나수술 2년후에는차이가없다고보고하였다. 이때사망률에가장영향을주는요인중에하나는혈전증에의하여발생하는폐색전증으로혈전에대한예방을하지않을경우 40-84% 에서혈전이발생하고이중에폐색전의발생빈도는 2-5% 에서발생하며, 사망에이르는폐색전증은 1-3% 에서발생한다고하였다. 19) 혈전증을예방하는유용한방법으로혈전용해제를사용하는방법과기계적인압박에의한족부펌프가널리사용되고있는데전자의경우는약제사용에따른비용과부작용이있다는단점이있다. 이에반하여족부펌프는환자에게불편감을줄수있고고가라는단점이있지만, 혈류의증가로정맥혈의정체를줄이고심부정맥내판막아래에혈액의소용돌이를유발시키며, 혈관내에일시적인 hypovolemia 를유발시켜 endothelial derived relaxing factor 와 prostaglandin 이혈액내로분비됨으로써섬유소분해를유발하여혈전생성을억제한다고알려져있으며이는약물요법의결과에비교할때대등한효과를보이는유용한방법이라는많은보고가있어왔다. 19,20) 본연구에서는족부펌프를사용하지않은환자가없어비교하기는어렵지만 310 명의환자전례에서임상적으로나타나는혈전증의발생및폐색전증에의한사망이없었던것은 족부펌프가일부기여했을것으로추측된다. 고령의환자에서는내과적인질환을동반하는경우가많아수술시간이길어지는경우폐와심장에합병증발생가능성이높다는보고 14,15) 가있어동시수술을피하는것이좋을것으로사료되며, 본연구에서도 75세이하이면서심혈관질환이나뇌혈관질환이없는저위험군의환자를선별하여동시수술을시행하였기에수술후주요한합병증의발생이없었다고생각한다. Jankiewicz 8) 와 Lane 등 4) 은동시에시행한양측슬관절전치환술에서수혈요구량등이현저히높다고보고한바있으며 Bottner 등 21) 은양측슬관절전치환술에서자가수혈량이많으면많을수록동종수혈의빈도가낮아지므로자가수혈의필요성을언급한바있다. 본연구에서도한번혹은두번의자가헌혈을시행하였으며, 이를통하여양측을동시에수술하는경우동종수혈량을줄일수있었다. 수술시간의비교에서제 1군에서총수술시간이다른군에비하여짧았던이유는수술을연이어했기때문에수술의집중도가높았기때문으로생각된다. 본연구를통하여한번의마취하에양측을수술한경우는한번의마취로비교했을때수술시간이많이소요되었고, 수술후출혈량과평균수혈량이많았지만, 입원기간과재활기간이단축되는장점이있었고, 수술후안전성에있어서본연구에서적용한환자선택기준으로시행했을때임상적으로심각한합병증은발생하지않았다. 결론 양측에인공슬관절전치환술이필요한경우에수술시기에따른장단점을고려하고, 환자의상태, 여건및환자의선호도에따라신중하게수술시기를선택해야할것으로생각되며, 저위험군환자에서는한번의마취하에양측을동시에시행하는것도안전한방법이될수있을것으로생각된다. 참고문헌 1.

59 Postoperative Safety of Sequential Bilateral Total knee Arthroplasty in Low Risk Patients Ju-Hyung Yoo, M.D., Seong-Min Kim, M.D., Chang-Dong Han, M.D.*, Yeun-Tae Lee, M.D., Hyun-Cheol Oh, M.D., and Jee-Ho Hyung, M.D. Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, National Health Insurance Corporation Ilsan Hospital, Ilsan, *Yonsei University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea Purpose: To study the safety of sequential bilateral total knee arthroplasty in low risk patients. Materials and Methods: Those who had received the surgery all at once were grouped as the first group, those who had received the surgery over two weeks interval were the second group and the last group, third group were those who had received the first surgery on only one knee and they were gotten re-hospitalized for the second surgery on the rest of the knee. These groups were compared on the aspects of complication, postoperative bleeding amount, average transfusion amount, operation time and admission period. Results: There were no major complications found in all groups and the minor complication rate of occurrence was 3%, 4%, 6% in each, which did not constitute a significance difference. Each of the total blood loss was 1442.9 ml, 1567.4 ml, 1616.6 ml and which did not constitute a significance difference, either. Each of the average volume of blood transfused was 1220.3 ml, 680.1 ml, 692.2 ml, and the first group had the largest volume transfused (p<0.05). The operation time was 186, 196, 211 minutes in each and the first group had the shortest duration (p<0.05). The average admission periods were 16.8, 28.6, 29.8 days and the first group had the shortest period (p<0.05). Conclusion: We suggest that when there are no medical diseases contracted on patients, the sequential bilateral total knee arthroplasty can be performed safely without definite increase in perioperative complications.
