Pulmonary metastasis of an esthesioneuroblastoma is uncommon. In this report, we present a case of an esthesioneuroblastoma pulmonary metastasis in an adult. A 39-year-old man treated with surgical resection of olfactory neuroblastoma was found to have a solitary pulmonary mass on a surveillance computed tomography scan performed 5 years after undergoing primary surgery and radiation treatment. He underwent lobectomy, and histopathology revealed esthesioneuroblastoma metastasis. To our knowledge, no case of esthesioneuroblastoma metastasis presenting as a solitary pulmonary nodule has been described in peer-reviewed literature.
嗅神经母细胞瘤的肺转移并不常见。在本报告中，我们呈现了一例成年患者嗅神经母细胞瘤发生肺转移的病例。一名39岁男性，曾接受嗅神经母细胞瘤手术切除治疗，在初次手术及放疗后5年进行的监测计算机断层扫描中发现有一个孤立性肺肿块。他接受了肺叶切除术，组织病理学检查显示为嗅神经母细胞瘤转移。据我们所知，同行评审文献中尚未描述过以孤立性肺结节形式出现的嗅神经母细胞瘤转移病例。
