Abstract
Primary malignant melanoma of the lung is an uncommon neoplasm that may be confused with more conventional types of lung cancer. We report a case of primary malignant melanoma of the lung in a 53-year-old man presenting with hemoptysis. Clinical and pathological review confirmed primary malignant melanoma of the lung. Tumor seeding was occurred as a complication of needle-track implantation. Relevant clinical and histopathological features and the criteria for diagnosis are reviewed.
