Skeletal muscle metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer.
PURPOSE Skeletal muscle metastases (SMM) from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are rarely encountered in clinical practice. The prognosis and the adequate treatment are not known. The aim of the study was to report our experience and to make an extensive literature research concerning SMM. PATIENTS AND METHODS In our unit, we identified 16 patients with SMM in a 10-year period. The source o...
متن کاملIsolated asymptomatic skeletal muscle metastasis in a potentially resectable non-small cell lung cancer: detection with FDG PET-CT scanning
Asymptomatic skeletal muscle metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer is a rare event particularly when it is detected at initial staging. This report describes how whole body imaging with [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) detected a solitary asymptomatic metastasis to the gluteus maximus muscle in a potentially resectable case of non-smal...
متن کاملIsolated splenic metastasis from non small cell lung cancer.
Lung cancer is amongst the commonest cancers in the world. Most patients present in advanced stages precluding curative treatment. Distant metastases usually occur in the liver, brain, bones and adrenals. Isolated splenic metastases are rare and are restricted to anecdotal reports in medical literature. We report a middle-aged man who presented to us with locoregionally advanced non small cell ...
متن کاملSquamous cell carcinoma of lung with unusual site of metastasis
Background: Lung cancer ranks among the most common and most lethal malignancies worldwide. Once vascular or lymphatic invasions occur, metastatic dissemination to distant sites is common. Bone, liver, adrenals, and brain are the most frequent sites of the distant disease. In this study we present a case of squamous cell carcinoma of lung with metastasis of the left knee bursa.Case presentation...
متن کاملA Rare Case of Non-Small Cell Carcinoma of Lung Presenting as Miliary Mottling
Miliary mottling on chest radiography is seen in miliary tuberculosis, certain fungal infections, sarcoidosis, coal miner’s pneumoconiosis, silicosis, hemosiderosis, fibrosing alveolitis, acute extrinsic allergic alveolitis, pulmonary eosinophilic syndrome, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, and rarely in hematogenous metastases from the primary cancers of the thyroid, kidney, trophoblasts, and so...
