In the present report we’re going to describe a rare case of synchronous lung adenocarcinoma and non- Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma in both hilar and mediastinal lymphnodes. The primitive pulmonary epithelial neoplasm was effectively managed with a right upper lobectomy and an adjuvant chemotherapy, while the indolent lymphoproliferative disorder did not require any treatment. The 24-month follow up did not show relapses.
