Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA) is an uncommon entity in the lung, with a poor prognosis. Multifocal IMA of the lung is even more unusual, and there is little experience with effective treatments. Herein, we present a case of multifocal IMA diagnosed in a 36 year-old man by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. A right middle lobe and a nodule in the right upper lobe were resected, as were mediastinal lymph nodes, leaving behind an autonomous right lower lobe nodule. To explore the feasibility of molecular treatment, next-generation sequencing of genetic mutations was performed after four cycles of chemotherapy (pemetrexed + cisplatin). Ultimately, a KIAA1468-RET fusion gene was detected at a disproportionate level (~67.3%), indicating that targeted therapy may be efficacious in treating this disease.
肺浸润性黏液性腺癌(IMA)是一种罕见的肺部实体瘤,预后较差。肺多灶性 IMA 更为罕见,且对有效治疗方法的经验很少。在此,我们介绍了 1 例经电视辅助胸腔镜手术诊断的 36 岁男性多灶性 IMA 病例。切除了右中叶和右上叶的结节,以及纵隔淋巴结,仅留下自主的右下肺结节。为了探索分子治疗的可行性,在进行了 4 个周期的化疗(培美曲塞+顺铂)后,对遗传突变进行了下一代测序。最终,检测到 KIAA1468-RET 融合基因水平异常升高(约 67.3%),表明针对该疾病的靶向治疗可能有效。
