Primary pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma is a rare and aggressive subtype of non-small cell lung cancer. Its radiological presentation may be variable, making imaging assessment essential for lesion characterization and evaluation of disease extent. A 55-year-old man presented with a dry cough and chest pain. Initial chest radiography revealed a pulmonary mass, prompting further imaging investigations. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses established the diagnosis of primary pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma. The patient was subsequently treated with chemotherapy. Primary pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma is an uncommon malignancy with aggressive clinical behavior. This case emphasizes the importance of detailed radiological evaluation in characterizing the pulmonary lesion and assessing disease extent, alongside histopathological confirmation, to guide therapeutic management.
