[Lung Adenocarcinoma with Pulmonary Aspergillosis Showing Cavity Disappearance;Report of a Case].
Kyobu Geka. the Japanese Journal of Thoracic Surgery 2017 Februrary
A 49-year-old man complaining of fever, chest pain, and hemosputum was examined at a local hospital. A chest computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a 35 mm mass shadow with cavity in the right upper lobe, but a transbronchial lung biopsy could not establish a complete diagnosis. After 1 month follow-up, the patient was referred to our hospital because the mass shadow wall remained thick despite the cavity shrinking. The mass shadow cavity disappeared 2 months after the 1st CT at our hospital. Video-assisted thoracic surgery was performed for both making diagnosis and treatment. The patient was diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer with pulmonary aspergillosis during surgery, and a right upper lobectomy with systematic lymph node dissection was performed. Pathological examinations revealed that the tumor was a T3N0M0 stage II B adenocarcinoma with pulmonary aspergillosis. The patient was treated with adjuvant chemotherapy 4 months after surgery and is under follow-up.
