[Primary lung neoplasm in a patient with breast cancer: report of a case].
A pulmonary nodule in a patient with a previous or concomitant diagnosis of extrathoracic malignancy is not always a synonym of metastasis. When dealing with breast cancer this is very important since the pulmonary lesion is usually not related to the primary tumor. We present a white, 69 years old patient, submitted to mastectomy four years earlier, in which a solitary pulmonary nodule was found, and after resection, the histopathologic examination disclosed a intravascular bronchoalveolar tumor. This is a rare lesion, here represented in an unusual way.
Adenocarcinoma, Bronchiolo-Alveolar↗
