Abstract

Pulmonary adenocarcinoma that histologically resembles fetal lung is a rare malignant epithelial tumor. A solitary pulmonary nodule was determined in right lung upper lobe of a 62-year-old man, and fine needle aspiration, intraoperative frozen examination, and pneumonectomy were applied respectively. After the histopathologic and immunohistochemical investigations, the case was diagnosed as fetal lung type pulmonary adenocarcinoma. The management and prognosis of this tumor are different from that of pulmonary blastoma and pleuropulmonary blastoma and may also cause difficulties in differential diagnosis.

Özet

Fetal akciğere histolojik olarak benzerlik gösteren pulmoner adenokarsinoma, akciğerin seyrek görülen malign epitelyal bir tümörüdür. Sağ akciğer üst lobunda soliter nodül saptanan 62 yaşında erkek hastaya ince iğne aspirasyonu, intraoperatif frozen inceleme ve sonrasında pnömonektomi uygulanmıştır. Histopatolojik ve immünohistokimyasal yöntemler ile olguya fetal akciğer tipi pulmoner adenokarsinoma tanısı konulmuştur. Pulmoner blastoma ve plöropulmoner blastoma ile ayırıcı tanıda güçlüğe yol açabilen bu tümörün, tedavisi ve prognozu farklılık gösterir.
