Lung carcinosarcoma is a neoplasm of high grade composed of epithelial and mesenchymal cells. It is exceptional; and usually affects men who are smokers, between the fifth and eighth decades of life. Medical treatment, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are not active in this kind of tumour, so surgery is the treatment of choice. Prognosis is poor with survival rates at 6 months around 27%. We describe the diagnostic process and the clinical outcome of a patient with lung carcinosarcoma with several paraneoplastic syndromes.
肺肉瘤样癌是一种由上皮和间叶细胞组成的高级别肿瘤。它很罕见;通常影响 50 岁至 80 岁之间的男性吸烟者。这种肿瘤对医疗、化疗和放疗不敏感,因此手术是首选治疗方法。预后较差,6 个月生存率约为 27%。我们描述了一例肺肉瘤样癌伴多种副肿瘤综合征患者的诊断过程和临床转归。
