Abstract
Primary malignant cartilaginous tumors of the lung are rare with limited reports in the literature. Here we describe the case of a69-year-old male who presented with a lobulated left upper lobe mass. Preoperative percutaneous biopsy was consistent with amucinous adenocarcinoma. Final pathology demonstrated a primary extraskeletal pulmonary myxoid chrondrosarcoma. Theclinical presentation and histologic characteristics are described.
