Primary germ cell tumors of the chest often localize in the anterior mediastinal compartment. Such tumors originating from lungs and pleura are rare. Chest tomography revealed a mass in the middle lobe of the right lung in a 25-year-old man. A middle lobe medial segmentectorny was performed, and chemotherapy was applied postoperatively.
