A 69-year-old male was followed at our institute for the purpose of hemo-dialization. During follow-up, a tumor shadow (phi 6.5 x 7.0 cm) was found in rt. S5 by chest X-ray. This tumor was diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma by TBLB. Right middle lobectomy (R 2 a) was performed. Histological staging was pT 2 N 2 M 0, stage IIIa. This tumor was cystic, filled with keratin like substance. Histologically, the cyst wall was composed of well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma and sarcomatous stroma which didn't differentiate into bone, cartilage, muscle, and etc. Immunohistologically, sarcomatous stroma was positively stained by vimentin, negatively by keratin and EMA. This patient survived 7 months with recurrence.

The patient was a 75-year-old man complaining of cough in July 1996. Chest X-ray demonstrated a tumor in the left S6. Percutaneous lung biopsy specimen revealed lung cancer. On September 4, 1996, left lobectomy (R 2 a) was performed. The tumor was 3.8 x 3.2 x 2.1 cm in size and showed a white yellow solid mass (pT2N0M0, pStage I, p1d0e0pm0). The pathological examination was confirmed no differentiation in adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. More than 90% of the tumor cells were characterized as having large clear cytoplasm. On immunohistochemical study, the tumor cells expressed positive with EMA, CEA, cytokeratin and negative with vimentin. The postoperative findings showed no presence of renal cell carcinoma. As the result, a diagnosis of primary clear cell carcinoma of the lung was made. The postoperative course is uneventful.
