Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of lung

Epithelial-myoepithelial
carcinoma of the lung: a case report. Medical imaging findings of the nodule. a Chest X-ray reveals a 2-cm shadow in the right middle lung field (black arrow). b, c CT scan reveals an 18-mm lobulated nodule. d Bronchoscopy shows the endobronchial nodule reducing the lumen of right B5a sub-segmental bronchus (black arrow) and the remaining patency of the B5b sub-segmental bronchus (white arrow)

Primary
myoepithelial carcinoma of the lung: a rare entity treated with parenchymal sparing resection. Radiographic and gross pathologic appearance of primary pulmonary myoepithelial carcinoma. A. Computed tomography of right-sided chest mass with compression of right atrium. B. Gross pathologic appearance of right visceral pleural mass.

Pulmonary
epithelial–myoepithelial carcinoma without AKT1, HRAS or PIK3CA mutations: a case report. Computed tomography revealed a well-demarcated tumor, 1.8 × 1.3 cm in size, located in the left lower lung (white arrow)
Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of lung is a very rare type of lung carcinomas of the salivary gland type.
Pathology
Diagnosis is based on the identification of myoepithelial cells, with spindle cells, clear cells, or plasmacytoid differentiation or a mixture of phenotypes, along with a variable abundance of duct-forming epithelium.
Treatment and prognosis
They are generally considered a comparatively low-grade pulmonary neoplasm .
