Pulmonary blastoma of lung – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/611778949

Pulmonary blastoma is a biphasic primary lung neoplasm, belonging to the group of sarcomatoid lung carcinomas. The tumour contains both an epithelial well-differentiated component, showing tubular architecture resembling the normal fetal lung, and a mesenchymal undifferentiated stroma with a so-called ''blastema-like'' configuration that resembles an embryonic lung.
