Minimally Invasive Adenocarcinoma of the Lung in a Young Patient Treated for Osteosarcoma

Abstract

Although children with osteosarcoma have a higher incidence of a 2nd malignancy than the general population, its development in the lung is rare. The few reported cases belong to examples of carcinomas. Here we present the case of a 13-year-old boy with a primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma diagnosed 3 years after the osteosarcoma diagnosis and present a review of the literature.
