Perivascular epithelioid tumors (PEComas) are a group of mesenchymal tumors that include angiomyolipoma, lymphangiomyomatoasis, and clear cell tumors of the lung. So far, only 50 cases have been reported. The 'frozen section' was studied intraoperatively. However, since benign-malignant distinction could not be made, thoracotomy with middle lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection was performed. In our case, it is aimed to contribute to the literature with the diagnosis and treatment of a rare clear cell tumor of the lung by performing a middle lobectomy on a 66-year-old female patient.
In conclusion, since the future behavior of these tumors is not clearly known, we recommend anatomical resection for these patients in cases where there is uncertainty in the 'frozen section' (1).
