    AbstractA sixty-one-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of a right lung tumor shadow. He had been diagnosed as having sarcoidosis at the age of fifty-seven. He was newly diagnosed as having squamous cell carcinoma by trans bronchial biopsy. He was treated with an induction chemotherapy (cisplatin 80 mg/m2 + vinorelbine 20 mg/m2) followed by right middle and lower lobectomy with a mediastinal nodal dissection, because the stage of his carcinoma was cT2N2M0. Resected lung tissue showed the disappearance of cancer cells. Dissected mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes showed many sarcoid granulomas. Cisplatin combined with vinorelbine might be an effective chemotherapy for non-small cell lung carcinoma.
