spelling	Pulmonary blastoma is a rare and aggressive neoplasm that originates in the lung. It is composed of immature mesenchymal and epithelial tissue that mimics the embryonic configuration of the lung. It has a low incidence and a high mortality rate, of approximately 60%. Pulmonary blastoma tends to occur more frequently between the fourth and fifth decades of life, being more prevalent in women and generally associated with smoking. The case of a 23-year-old woman with no known risk factors is presented, who incidentally was diagnosed with a primary pulmonary blastoma. The patient experienced pain in the left costal region, productive cough, dyspnea, and hemoptysis for 30 days. Findings on X-ray and chest tomography led to a biopsy of the left lung, which revealed tissue fragments with significant tumor necrosis. Five days later, the patient consulted again due to worsened symptoms, including pleuritic chest pain. It was decided to perform a left lower lobectomy, during which a solid tumor attached to the visceral pleura with tumor masses in the parietal pleura was found. The final histopathological study confirmed the diagnosis of a high-grade malignant tumor compatible with pulmonary blastoma. In conclusion, pulmonary blastoma is a rare neoplasm that can occur at different stages of life, although it has a higher incidence between the ages of 40 and 50. Pathologists need to consider this disease in their differential diagnoses due to the challenges involved in its diagnosis. Detecting pulmonary blastoma at early stages is crucial for appropriate treatment, although currently there are no reliable predictive markers, and the prognosis of this disease is generally unfavorable.
