title: [Bronchial adenocarcinoma in tuberculosis scars].
abstract: The relation between bronchial cancer and fibrous scars still remains controversial. We report, with regard to a typical case, the histological arguments for this hypothesis in the knowledge that only a clinical history and above all a radiographic progress will evoke the carcinomatous transformation. We report on the diagnostic peculiarities, the evolution, the therapeutic approach and histogenetics of bronchial cancers developing on a scar. This association and the interest of pursuing these investigations in the presence of evocative clinical or radiographic anomalies enable a better understanding of the natural history of bronchial cancer.
