متن کاملUmbilical metastasis from small cell carcinoma of the lung.
Umbilical metastases have been almost exclusively reported in patients with adenocarcinomas of intra-abdominal organs. We present a case of small cell carcinoma of the lung with umbilical metastasis that was confirmed by biopsy. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of umbilical metastasis from small cell lung cancer.

On colonoscopic examination he was found to have a tumour in the caecum near the ileocaecal valve, which was biopsied, revealing small neuroendocrine tumour cells. The patient then underwent systemic chemotherapy...
