Abstract
Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the lung is now considered a subtype of squamous cell carcinoma as per the 2015 WHO classification and remains a relatively unknown type of lung cancer due to its rarity. Here we report two cases of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the lung and their CT findings to clarify some of the radiologic features of this type of cancer. Two patients aged 85 and 68 years with lung basaloid squamous cell carcinoma visited our institution and underwent surgical resection. On CT, the lesions were 3.1 and 2.8 cm in size, respectively, well-defined, round in shape with lobulated margins and prominent intratumoral necrosis. The latter case was followed after operation for 20 months, and there was no recurrence of the disease on CT. Although very rare, basaloid squamous cell carcinoma should be considered a subtype of lung cancer in tumors sharing these CT findings.
