Abstract

The presence of the multiple primary lung neoplasms is a rare event, with few series described in the literature. These can manifest synchronously, or metachronous, the latter being is the most common. The prognosis in the patients with synchronous tumors appears to be more unfavorable than in the patients with a single lung neoplasm. Method: Because it involved bioethical aspects, the research complied with the ethical-bioethical principles, was carried out attentive to ethical-moral objections, and also under the focus of the current regulations (requirements of the Good Clinical Practices-GCP-, and adherence to ethical-bioethical principles originating in the Helsinki Declaration and the habeas data law). The Informed consent was obtained from the patient through which all information about the risks and the benefits was provided, as well as full autonomy to accept or reject the research as well as anonymity. Likewise, the case was approved by the bioethics committee. Clinical case: Patient with a preoperative histopathological diagnosis of hamartoma-type lung neoplasia. The surgery was carried out through the right lower lobectomy through posterolateral thoracotomy (Sweet). The postoperative evolution was satisfactory and the pathological and the immunohistochemical diagnosis reported primary multiple pulmonary neoplasia hamartoma and adenocarcinoma as the synchronous one, the two lesions being of different origin. Conclusion. The multiple primary lung neoplasia is a rare form of presentation, such as at the hamartoma with focal acinar-type lung adenocarcinoma, which is difficult to diagnose on certain occasions and has a reserved prognosis.
