[A case of bronchial gland cell-type adenocarcinoma with relapsed pneumonia and hemoptysis].

We report a case of bronchial gland cell-type adenocarcinoma with recurrent pneumonia and hemoptysis. After persistent hemoptysis since the summer of 1999, a 26-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital because of bacterial pneumonia of the left lower lobe in March 2000. Treatments with antibiotics resulted in only a transient improvement of the pneumonia, and so she was re-admitted for an investigation of the recurrent pneumonia accompanied with hemoptysis.
