Pancoast tumor or superior sulcus tumor is a rare bronchogenic carcinoma. In the early period, shoulder pain was the most common symptom. In our patient, due to complaints of shoulder and arm pain, he was examined primarily for musculoskeletal causes and radiculopathy in the other outpatient clinics and Horner's syndrome on her face was not noticed. At the same time, the patient was not complaining his Horner because the pain was on the front. Because of the inclusion of the anhidrosis of the face and neck region, advanced imaging of the patient with preganglionic horner syndrome is desired.
Less than 50% of patients with pancoast tumor have resectable lesions at the first diagnosis. Musculoskeletal disorders are considered primarily in these patients who have little and background complaints about lung related, and diagnosis is delayed or misdiagnosed. For this reason, the importance of detailed examination and anamnesis is great in patients with arm and shoulder pain.
