Abstract
The gradually progressive solitary cystic-solid mass of chest CT scans is highly suggestive of lung cancer. We report a case of a 29-year-old woman with a persistent cystic-solid lesion in the right upper lobe. A chest CT scan showed a 35 mm × 44 mm × 51 mm focal cystic-solid mass in the anterior segment of the right upper lobe. The size of lesion had increased over 3 years, especially for the solid component. The right upper lobe pneumonectomy was performed. Postoperative pathological examination showed placental transmogrification of the lung, which is a rare cause of pulmonary cystic lesion.
期刊介绍:
Overview
Effective with the 2016 volume, this journal will be published in an online-only format.
Aims and Scope
The Clinical Respiratory Journal (CRJ) provides a forum for clinical research in all areas of respiratory medicine from clinical lung disease to basic research relevant to the clinic.
We publish original research, review articles, case studies, editorials and book reviews in all areas of clinical lung disease including:
Asthma
Allergy
COPD
Non-invasive ventilation
Sleep related breathing disorders
Interstitial lung diseases
Lung cancer
Clinical genetics
Rhinitis
Airway and lung infection
Epidemiology
Pediatrics
CRJ provides a fast-track service for selected Phase II and Phase III trial studies.
