She underwent extensive resection of the thoracic wall, attached right middle lobe and right upper lobe metastases. She was treated with Interferon-?-2b (INF) followed by systemic chemotherapy. After 23 months, she had no complaint and no significant disease progression was detected through imaging studies.
