Abstract

The incidence of locoregional recurrence of non-small-cell (NSCLC) lung carcinoma is high1, even in total surgical remove in the primary tumor. We report the case of a 64-years-old without comorbidly, non-smoker female patient who presented at first an adenocarcinoma in anterior segment in right anterior lobe, treated with completed extraction. After 6 years in remission, the patient was surprised with the presented of a new tumor in the same local as the earliest tumor. The histopathology showed a same cell pattern. The overall analysis from this case report allow us to see the important of clinical follow-up in oncological patient. In this article, we discute the particulars of an adenocarcinoma recurrence, the main symptoms of the disease, and the best treatment approach that can be chosen for the medical group nowadays.
