Abstract
A 63-year-old male was admitted to our hospital because of an abnormal finding on chest radiography. Chest X-ray films and a chest CT scan showed a tumorous lesion of 6.6 cm in diameter in the right upper lobe. Right upper lobectomy was performed with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. It was a grossly gelatin-like tumor and histologically mucinous cystadenocarcinoma. Because mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the lung is of low-grade malignancy and difficult to diagnose as malignant preoperatively, it is recommended to perform lung resection with VATS. We report this unusual case, with a review of the Japanese literature.
