Article Synopsis
- A 65-year-old man developed bilateral pulmonary nodules one year after bladder cancer surgery, which were later identified as synchronous double primary lung cancer (sDPLC) instead of metastases from the bladder cancer.
- Immunohistochemical analysis ruled out the nodules being metastases, while next-generation sequencing (NGS) confirmed their distinct origins, supporting the diagnosis of sDPLC.
- The patient was ultimately diagnosed with small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and received chemotherapy, highlighting the importance of both immunohistochemical methods and NGS in accurate tumor classification and treatment planning.
