Primary sarcoma of the lung: A very rare diagnosis and poor prognosis


Primary lung sarcoma is a very rare malignant tumor, accounting for less than 0.5% of all lung tumors. We describe the case of a 50-year-old man who presented with primary pulmonary sarcoma. X-ray chest and thoracic computed tomography (CT) revealed a 40 mm Χ 60 mm mass in the right upper lobe. Biopsy was reported as fusiform sarcoma. Extensive clinical examination, followed by full body CT scan was performed to exclude primary synovial sarcoma located peripherally and distant metastases.
