A case report of a 76-year old female with malignant pulmonary adenomatosis was presented. With sputum cytology after transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) class IV was concluded. Right lobectomy was done and the histological finding suggested a specific type of welldifferentiated adenocarcinoma of the lung.
It was found cystologically that desquamative atypical cells had a tight intercellular binding with a formation of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma mass. In the histological findings, a tall cylindrical cancer cell with almost no atypism of nucleus and cytoplasm proliferated forming islet-like clusters around the alveolar wall. The reaction of interstice was poor.
