Abstract
PASCUA, Josefina et al. Adenocarcinoma pulmonar sincrónico y linfoma primario de tejido linfoide asociado a mucosa pulmonar. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2019, vol.79, n.3, pp.208-211. ISSN 0025-7680.
The lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), are uncommon entities, of low grade of malignancy with very infrequent or no lymph node involvement. They represent about 80% of the primary pulmonary lymphomas. The synchronous appearance with lung adenocarcinoma is an extremely rare finding. We present the case of an ex-smoker 68-year-old man, in whom, in the follow-up of a pulmonary nodule, a second pulmonary nodule was found. The surgical biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of both neoplasms.
