Abstract

A proper pathologic diagnosis of small cell lung cancer(SCLC) is essential for the application of aggressive treatment modalities. However, various authors have suggested several subtypes of SCLC based on morphological features. Among them, the incidence of small cell lung cancer(SCLC) combined with squamous cell and/or adenocarcinoma, represents less than 1% to 3% of all SCLC tumors. Because of the rarity of SCLC combined with squamous cell and/or adenocarcinoma, very little is known about its clinical characteristics and response to therapy. We report a case of SCLC combined with squamous cell and adenocarcinoma in a 68 year old male who experienced pneumonectomy of the left lung.

저자들은 기침과 전신 쇄약감으로 내원하여 기관지내시경에 의한 조직생검에서 편평상피세포암종으로 진단되었으나 수술 후 소세포암종이 편평정상피세포암종과 선암종을 포함한 복합형 소세포암종 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
