Abstract

Mucoepidermoid carcinomas are part of a rare group of malignant lung tumors. These tumors are most often found in young subjects. The growth of the tumor is usually endo-bronchial and concerns large bronchi. The histopathological appearance reveals cells producing mucus, epithelial cells and mixed cells. In this paper, we report the case of a 48-year-old man with a lateralized right lateral carcinoma tumor, which after endo-bronchial resection was found to be a pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma. The patient underwent a complete excision of the hull enlarged tumor mass with angular section and V-plasty. She is currently in remission after a follow-up of 84 months. No standard treatment is defined for these tumors. The prognosis depends on the histological grade, and can, especially in the elderly, be very pejorative.

Karinanın muko skuamöz karsinomu

Abstract

Mukopidermoid karsinomlar, nadir görülen bir malign akciğer tümörü grubunun parçasıdır. Bu tümörler en sık genç denekte bulunur. Tümör büyümesi genellikle endo-bronşiyaldir ve büyük bronşlarla ilişkilidir. Histopatolojik görünüm, mukus üreten hücreleri, epitel hücreleri ve karışık hücreleri ortaya çıkarır. Bu yazıda lateralize sağ lateral karsinom tümörü olan 48 yaşındaki bir erkeğin endo-bronşiyal rezeksiyon sonrası pulmoner mukopidermoid karsinomu olduğu bulundu. Hastaya açısal kesit ve V-plasti ile gövde genişlemiş tümör kitlesinin tam eksizyonu yapıldı. 84 aylık takipten sonra hala remisyonda. Bu tümörler için standart bir tedavi yoktur. Prognoz histolojik dereceye bağlıdır ve özellikle yaşlılarda çok küçük düşürücü olabilir.
