Abstract

We experienced a case of lung cancer that developed from a tracheal bronchus in an 80-year-old man. The tumor was completely resected by right upper lobectomy and resection of the tracheal bronchus as well as dissection of the mediastinal lymph nodes. Postsurgical pathologic staging was stage IB (T2 N0 M0) adenocarcinoma.
