A lung squamous cell carcinoma complicated by lung abscess was found in a 38-year-old female never smoker. After a transbronchial lung biopsy, she complained of chest pain and had a persistent fever. A right middle lobectomy was performed to alleviate her symptoms and complete surgical resection was achieved. She reported no exposure to factors that increase the likelihood of lung cancer. Unknown factors or the patient's lung cancer susceptibility might cause the disease. Survival time is generally shorter in young patients than old patients, but careful observation and aggressive treatment can improve prognoses. A case such as this is rare in the extant literature.
