Primary pulmonary artery sarcoma. A method of resection.
Primary pulmonary artery sarcoma classically presents with symptoms and findings suggestive of acute pulmonary artery occlusion. An angiocentric mass or the finding of spindling neoplasm on needle biopsy should suggest this neoplasm. The rare unilateral location in the present case permitted resection by pneumonectomy. An endarterectomy technique was used to extract loosely adherent tumor-throm...
متن کاملPrimary Pulmonary Synovial Sarcoma
Primary sarcoma of the lung and/or pleural cavity is a rare finding accounting for <0.5% of all thoracic malignancies. Histologically, mesothelioma predominates in this subcategory of neoplasms; its relationship to asbestos exposure and cigarette smoking is well documented. Other tumor types include fibrosarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, angiosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, synovial sarcoma, an...
متن کاملSpontaneous expectoration of primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma.
A-34-year-old Chinese man who had smoked about 20 cigarettes per day for the past 14 years presented with cough and hemoptysis that had persisted for 2 months. Chest radiography revealed mass shadow in the left lower field. A computed tomographic scan of the chest revealed the tumor in the left lower lobe, occupying left main bronchus lumen with polypoid endobronchial growth (Figure 1). Physica...
متن کاملResults of Pulmonary Resection: Sarcoma and Germ Cell Tumors.
Pulmonary metastasis occurs in as many as 88% and 80% of stage IV patients with sarcoma and germ cell tumors, respectively. Pulmonary metastatectomy may be the only means of rendering a patient disease free. Sublobar resection (wedge or segmentectomy), lobectomy, and pneumonectomy achieve complete resection. Bilateral disease can be resected via staged thoracoscopy/thoracotomy, median sternotom...
متن کاملDiagnostic enigma: primary pulmonary artery sarcoma.
Primary angiosarcoma of pulmonary artery is a very rare lesion. We present a case of primary angiosarcoma that was initially misdiagnosed as a subacute massive pulmonary thromboembolism in a 30-year-old man. This rare disease is usually indistinguishable from acute or chronic thromboembolic disease of the pulmonary arteries. The clinical and radiological findings of pulmonary artery angiosarcom...
