description Primary pulmonary malignancies are rare in childhood. The most common, pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB), has an incidence of 25–50 cases per year in the United States (Knight and et al., 2019) [1]. The majority of children are diagnosed with PPB before the age of four years. PPB is divided into subtypes I, Ir (type I-regressed), II, and III, which correlates to the age of diagnosis and patient prognosis [2,3]. Here we report an unusual presentation of PPB in a teen-aged female who presented with a one month history of a non-productive cough.
