Colorectal Cancer Presenting as Single Pulmonary Hilar Lymph Node Metastasis
Colorectal carcinoma is the second biggest cancer responsible for mortality. Lung metastasis is the commonest, following the liver. It is not uncommon to perform pulmonary metastasectomy and identify mediastinal metastasis. Previous studies have identified incidental lymph node involvement following routine mediastinal lymph node clearance in 20-50% of cases. However, solitary intrathoracic lym...
متن کاملPulmonary Hilar Lymph Node Metastasis of Breast Cancer Induced Bronchopleural Fistula and Superior Vena Cava Syndrome
BACKGROUND It is extremely rare for pulmonary hilar lymph node metastasis (PHLNM) of a cancer to be independently lethal. Here, we report an exceedingly rare case of cavitation in PHLNM from breast cancer triggering broncho-pleural fistula and empyema (BPFE), complicated with superior vena cava syndrome (SVCS). CASE REPORT A 56-year-old woman who had undergone left segmental mastectomy and ax...
متن کاملSubpleural intrapulmonary lymph node metastasis from colorectal cancer.

Pathologically, two of the tumors were diagnosed as pulmonary metastases; the remaining tumor, however, was diagnosed as ...
متن کاملCushing’s syndrome associated with typical, peripheral pulmonary carcinoid tumor and N2 lymph node metastasis: case report

Treatment is based on decreasing cortiso...
متن کاملHemangioma in a pulmonary hilar lymph node: Case report

CASE PRESENTATION A 73-year-old man was found to have a 15-mm nodular shadow in the left lung on computed tomography, and bronchoscopic brush cytology yielded a diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma. Chest computed tomography showed no evidence of hilar or mediastin...
