Figure 1
A 54-year-old man with adenoid cystic carcinoma. (a) Frontal chest radiograph showing some fullness in the right suprahilar region (arrow), and (b) greater fullness was observed (arrow) after two years. (c) Axial chest CT image showing a 2.2 × 3.2 cm mass (arrow) in the right middle lobe obstructing the right bronchus intermedius. (d) PET/CT image showing intense nonhomogeneous 18F-FDG uptake in the tumor (arrow). The maximum standardized uptake value was 5.3. (e) Gross pathologic specimen showing a yellow-white mass consisting of an intraluminal lesion (arrow). (f) High-magnification photomicrograph showing that the tumor is composed mainly of mucus-secreting cells arranged in a funicular and cribriform pattern within the gland (H and E ×100).
