[Pulmonary blastoma in an adult].
The authors report the case of a 24-year-old woman in complete remission 4 years after treatment for a biphasic pulmonary blastoma. After a left lower lobectomy, the patient developed a local recurrence that was treated by chemotherapy. In the light of this case, the authors review the clinical, radiological and therapeutic features of this very rare malignant lung tumour.
