Abstract

Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC), a subtype of adenocarcinoma, forms 2.6-4.3% of all lung cancers. BAC shows pure lepidic growth without invasion of stroma, blood vessels or pleura. BAC mostly appears as a peripheral pulmonary nodule; however, the tumor may sometimes present as a segmental, lobar consolidation, and have a multifocal or diffuse pattern. An unusual form of BAC is presented which has well defined, scattered, and sometimes united nodules throughout the lungs

Özet

Adenokarsinomun bir alt tipi olan bronkoalveolar karsinom (BAK), tüm akciğer kanserlerinin %2.6-4.3’ünü oluşturur. Bronkoalveolar karsinom stromanın, damarların veya plevranın tutulmadığı yalnızca tümöral bir büyüme özelliği gösterir. Bronkoalveolar karsinom genellikle periferal pulmoner nodül şeklinde karşımıza çıkar, ancak nadiren de olsa lober konsolidasyon, multifokal veya difüz bir patern de gösterebilir. Bronkoalveolar karsinomun alışılmadık bir görünümü olan dağınık yerleşimli ve bazen de birleşmiş olan nodüllerinin tüm akciğere yayıldığı formu da tanımlanmıştır.
