英文摘要

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the lung (MEC) is a tumor of low‑malignant potential of bronchial gland origin. Low‑grade MEC has a better prognosis than high‑grade tumor, the later being similar to that of nonsmall cell lung carcinoma. We report a case of 14‑year‑old girl who presented with cough along with expectoration and dyspnea. Imaging studies revealed a mass involving the right upper lobe bronchus. Surgical resection was done and pathological examination revealed an intermediate‑grade MEC with tumor‑free margins. No adjuvant treatment was considered. The patient had no signs of tumor recurrence with 1‑year follow‑up.
