A case of diffuse, epithelioid mesothelioma of the right pleura in a 16-year-old boy is presented. Though a history of previous exposure to asbestos could not be elicited, the patient did receive pulmonary irradiation for metastatic Wilms' tumor at the age of 2 years. The authors believe that the development of his mesothelioma was causally related to his prior radiotherapy.
本文报告一例16岁男孩的右胸膜弥漫性上皮样间皮瘤。虽然未能查明既往接触石棉的病史,但该患者在2岁时因转移性威尔姆斯瘤接受过肺部放疗。作者认为,他的间皮瘤的发生与先前的放疗有因果关系。
