Abstract

Sarcomatoid carcinoma is a rare tumor group accounting for 0.3-1.3% of all malignant lung neoplasms. It is a heterogeneous group of nonsmall cell lung carcinomas containing a sarcoma or sarcoma-like component. In this paper, we describe three cases of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the lung and the histopathologic and clinical features of this rare tumor are discussed.

Özet

Sarkomatoid karsinomlar akciğerin malign tümörlerinin %0.3-1.3'ünü oluşturan nadir görülen bir tümör grubudur. Küçük hücreli dışı akciğer karsinomlarının sarkom veya sarkom benzeri bileşen içeren ayrı bir tipidir. Bu yazıda, akciğerde sarkomatoid karsinom tanısı konulan üç olgu tanımlanmakta ve bu nadir tümörün histopatolojik ve klinik özelliklerini tartışılmaktadır.
