Pulmonary scar carcinoma was described as a distinct clinicopathological entity over 50 years ago. There are many theories on the formation of this entity. We present three cases of pulmonary scar carcinoma with a high ratio of adenocarcinoma. One patient had a favorable postoperative course despite a 14-month delay in treatment. Necropsy specimen of another patient showed two primary scar carcinomas unrelated to each other. Literature review and discussion of etiology, diagnosis, and treatment modalities of pulmonary scar carcinoma were done. Pathogenesis and prognosis of the neoplasms associated with apical scars are not clearly understood.
50多年前，肺瘢痕癌就被描述为一种独特的临床病理实体。关于这种实体的形成有许多理论。我们报告3例腺癌比例较高的肺瘢痕癌病例。1例患者尽管治疗延迟了14个月，但术后病程良好。另一例患者的尸检标本显示有两个互不相关的原发性瘢痕癌。我们对肺瘢痕癌的病因、诊断和治疗方式进行了文献复习和讨论。与肺尖部瘢痕相关的肿瘤的发病机制和预后尚不清楚。
