ABSTRACT
Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma [LCNC] is a rare and aggressive cancer accounting for 3% of all lung cancers. A small percentage of LCNC called combined LCNC, can be seen in combinations with other lung tumor types. Multimodal therapy is proposed for this type of tumor but there is no any significant therapy since it is very rare tumor. This patient was a 66-year male and a heavy smoker with no symptoms of lung disease. Computed tomography core biopsy showed suspected adenocarcinoma. Right lower lobectomy was performed with mediastinal lymph node dissection via mini thoracotomy. The tumor was diagnosed as combined LCNC with adenocarcinoma. The patient was discharged on the seventh postoperative day and sent to the oncology clinic for chemotherapy. There has been no recurrence for eight months after surgery
