Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma is a subtype of the lung adenocarcinoma. Early stage bronchioloalveolar carcinoma is usually asymptomatic, especially in the peripheral lung. Rarely, urticaria has been described occurring with lung cancer, usually small-cell lung cancer, but no case has been reported of the bronchioloalveolar carcinoma yet. We report here a unique and initial urticaria on a patient, lasting for 6 months, who finally was diagnosed as early stage bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (T1aN0M0). After treatment of surgery, the symptom of urticaria disappeared and did not recur. Therefore, we consider that utricaria is a possibly clinical manifestation in early stage bronchioloalveolar carcinoma.
