Intussusception Caused by Intestinal Metastasis from Lung Pleomorphic Carcinoma

Coronary Embolization Caused by Pleomorphic Lung Carcinoma

A 73-year-old man who had been transferred to our emergency room due to sudden chest pain was diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Primary percutaneous coronary intervention was performed. A long, white object which looked like a parasitic worm was retrieved via intracoronary aspiration and revascularization was successfully completed. Contrast computed tomography ...

Adult Ileo-Ileal Intussusception Caused by Intestinal Lipoma

Jejunal intussusception caused by metastasis of a giant cell carcinoma of the lung

A 55-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital reporting of nausea, vomiting and anorexia. One month before admission, she had been diagnosed with lung cancer with intestinal metastasis. A CT scan confirmed intussusception due to intestinal metastasis and she underwent emergency laparoscopic surgery followed by resection of the primary lung cancer. Histopathological findings of the intestinal...

Colonic Metastases from Pleomorphic Carcinoma of the Lung Presenting as an Ileocecal Intussusception

Pleomorphic carcinoma is a rare aggressive type of lung cancer that uncommonly metastasizes to the bowel, leading to bleeding, perforation, obstruction, and rarely intussusception. Serving as a lead point, metastatic lesions in the bowel may precipitate intussusception and require immediate surgical intervention. We present a rare case of colonic metastases from a primary lung malignancy, causi...
