Primary Lung Malign Mesenchymal Tumors

Öz

Primary mesenchymal tumors are extremely rare tumors of the lung. Mesenchymal tumors constitute about 1% of all cancers and the most common sites are the extremities (59%). Their treatment and prognosis are limited because of their rare occurrence. In this study, three cases of primary lung mesenchymal tumor are presented in the light of the literature.
