Primary bronchogenic carcinoma of the lung is extremely rare in childhood, particularly the squamous cell type. Only 13 cases have been reported in the literature. We report a case of squamous cell carcinoma in an autistic, 16-year-old boy who presented with a productive cough. Interestingly, he was a never-smoker, but had been exposed to environmental tobacco smoking by his father for 13 years. The diagnosis was delayed by approximately 1 month due to his young age. He was diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, and chemotherapy was arranged. Considering his age, autism, and good performance status, a combined chemotherapeutic regimen with gemcitabine plus carboplatin was planned. After the second cycle of chemotherapy, the cough resolved and a computed tomography scan showed a partial response of the central conglomerated mass with the absence of the malignant pleural effusion.
原发性支气管肺癌在儿童时期极为罕见,尤其是鳞状细胞类型。文献中仅报道过13例。我们报告一例16岁患自闭症男孩的鳞状细胞癌病例,该男孩表现为咳痰性咳嗽。有趣的是,他从不吸烟,但因父亲吸烟使他有13年的环境烟草暴露史。由于他年龄小,诊断延迟了约1个月。通过电视辅助胸腔镜手术,他被诊断为肺鳞状细胞癌,并安排了化疗。考虑到他的年龄、自闭症以及良好的身体状况,计划采用吉西他滨加卡铂的联合化疗方案。化疗第二个周期后,咳嗽缓解,计算机断层扫描显示中央聚集性肿块部分缓解,且无恶性胸腔积液。
