Pulmonary blastoma
is a very rare primary tumor of the lung, which mostly occur at a late age in adults. Six cases in children under four years of age are reported in this series. The light-microscopic, immunohistochemical and electron-microscopic characteristics revealed that the elements of P.B. in childhood consist mainly of mesenchymal components, including undifferentiated large cells and small round cells, which tend to differentiate toward
rhabdomyosarcoma
. The epithelial components comprise only a small portion of the total tumor, and most appear as the well-demarcate branching tubular structures lined with columnar or cubiodal epithelium merging with the stroma. The degree of differentiation of mesenchymal elements is closely related to the prognosis.
