Abstract
-
We have experienced a case of squamous cell carcinoma of lung mixed with malignant lymphoma. The patient was a 19-years-old male. He was a non-smoker. Right pneumonectomy was done. We could not find any evidences of metastasis. The postoperative course was uneventful. The tissue diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemical method. The lymphoma recurred at 3 months after operation and the patient was dead at 5 months after operation because of respiratory failure
