Pulmonary blastomas and carcinosarcomas are uncommon tumours, accounting for less than 1% of all lung neoplasms. Three previously described mixed epithelial and mesenchymal tumours having both adult and embryonal elements were termed 'transitional'. We report a similar case and evaluate the application of the term 'transitional tumour'.
肺母细胞瘤和癌肉瘤是罕见肿瘤，占所有肺肿瘤的比例不到1%。先前描述的三种同时具有成人和胚胎成分的混合性上皮和间叶肿瘤被称为“过渡性”肿瘤。我们报告了一例类似病例，并评估了“过渡性肿瘤”这一术语的应用。
