A Case of Pulmonary Pleomorphic Carcinoma With Renal Metastasis()

A 62-year-old man was referred to our hospital for an axillary mass. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a right axillary tumor and a left renal tumor. Needle biopsies of lung tumor and renal tumor were performed, but a definite diagnosis was impossible. Because his performance status worsened and the...

description A 62-year-old man was referred to our hospital for an axillary mass. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a right axillary tumor and a left renal tumor. Needle biopsies of lung tumor and renal tumor were performed, but a definite diagnosis was impossible. Because his performance status worsened and the lung tumor grew day by day, chemotherapy with gemcitabine and cisplatin was started without definite diagnosis. However, the chemotherapy could not be continued because of interstitial pneumonia and the patient died because of the progression of disease. The final histopathologic diagnosis was pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma based on immunohistochemical staining.
