Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma of the Carina
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.
