Abstract

Fetal adenocarcinoma is a rare lung malignancy associated with improved outcomes compared to more common adenocarcinoma variants. We describe a case of a 31-year-old woman who presented with right-sided chest pain, and was subsequently diagnosed with an intermediate-grade stage IV fetal adenocarcinoma with chest wall invasion. She was treated with surgical resection and adjuvant radiation.
