Abstract

We experienced a case of micropapillary lung adenocarcinoma with aerogenous spread in a patient who was suspected of having interstitial pneumonia. To our knowledge, our case has not been described in the Korean literature. Our case indicates that clinicians cannot rule out the possibility of micropapillary lung adenocarcinoma with aerogenous spread in patients with a persistent presence of lesions in the lower left lung.
