title: Suggestive synchronous triple squamous cell carcinoma of the lung in the same lobe.
abstract: We report a case of suggestive synchronous triple squamous cell carcinoma (Sq) of the lung that occurred in the same lobe. Under a clinical diagnosis of triple lung cancer, lobectomy was performed. Pathological examination revealed two well-differentiated Sq and one poorly differentiated Sq. The analysis of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase mutations showed no mutation in each tumor. However, pathological findings and the positive rate of immunochemical reaction of p53 and Ki-67 were different in each tumor.
