Abstract

Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA) is a rare type of lung cancer associated with poor prognosis since systemic chemo- and immunotherapies are generally ineffective and lack of actionable genomic alterations often preclude targeted therapy. While organ transplantation is excluded in patients with solid malignancies, we hypothesized that tumor extirpation through bilateral lung transplantation in a patient with lack of systemic metastasis could be a life-saving treatment in medically refractory IMA.
