The azygos lobe is a well-known and well-described anatomical variation of the right lung. Primary lung cancer arising from an azygos lobe, however, is exceedingly rare. Only a handful of cases have been previously reported in the literature. We report the first case with operative demonstration of a primary adenocarcinoma arising from an azygos lobe, which was treated with robot-assisted azygos lobectomy.
奇叶是右肺一种广为人知且描述详尽的解剖变异。然而,起源于奇叶的原发性肺癌极为罕见。此前文献中仅报道过少数病例。我们报告首例经手术证实起源于奇叶的原发性腺癌病例,该病例接受了机器人辅助奇叶切除术治疗。
