P3.13-30 Driver Mutation in Heavy Smoker Patient with Squamous Cell Carcinoma Metastatic Lung Cancer: Case Report

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents 85% of lung cancer. The most frequent sites of distant metastasis are the liver, adrenal glands, bones and brain. Gastrointestinal metastases are uncommon and rectal metastases are extremely rare. Here we report a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung with rectal metastases.

Background: Choroidal metastasis as an initial presenting feature of metastatic lung cancer is exceedingly rare. External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) is an effective and widely accepted therapeutic modality. However, data addressing the effectiveness of other treatment strategies is limited. Herein, we present a patient with choroidal metastases secondary to lung cancer and review the relevant literature. Case report: A 25-year-old male presented with deterioration of vision. His evaluation revealed bilateral choroidal metastasis secondary to adenocarcinoma of the lung. Unfortunately, his vision continued to deteriorate despite treatment with EBRT and chemotherapy.Conclusion: Metastatic lung cancer can manifest with choroidal metastasis as an initial presentation.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/nepjoph.v4i2.6559 Nepal J Ophthalmol 2012; 4 (2): 339-342

Long Time

Out of 51 bronchoscopy biopsy, thirty (60%) were of lung cancer which made 5.3% of the whole malignant tumours, i.e. 562 cancers in different sites in 26 months study in the Department of Pathology, TUTH. Squamous cell carcinoma (22 cases or 73.3%) was the commonest followed by Oat cell carcinoma (5 cases or 16.7%). Lung cancer was found more in the old age group, that is 23 cases (7.7%) in over 50 yrs old, 6 cases (20%) in 40-50 yrs group and only one case (3%) in 25 yrs male. The average age for the lung cancer in this study is 58.2 yrs. Lung cancer is more common in male than in female (5:1). All nine patients with bronchogenic carcinoma in whom the history of smoking habit was taken, were heavy smoker for a long time (more than 15 yrs) & 89 (8 out of 9 pts) have Squamous cell carcinoma. In 17 cases of lung cancers 12 (70%) were founf in right lung and 5 ( 30%) in the left lung.

Rare Case Report

CONTEXT: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progresses to distant metastases in most cases. The most frequent sites for distant metastases are the bones, central nervous system, adrenal glands and liver. Dissemination to the skin, myocardium, thyroid gland and intestine may occur, but is rare. CASE REPORT: We describe a case of squamous cell carcinoma in the lungs, with metastases in the colon and thyroid, in a 66-year-old female patient. The lesion was unresectable and chemotherapy was started. The patient evolved with intestinal subocclusion, and colonoscopy showed the presence of a polyp. Biopsy and immunohistochemical analysis on the polyp showed that it was compatible with squamous cell carcinoma of pulmonary origin. At a follow-up consultation, the patient presented a thyroid nodule. A aspiration biopsy and cellblock immunohistochemistry confirmed the squamous cell carcinoma of pulmonary origin. After third-line chemotherapy, the patient progressed with acute obstructive abdomen due to a retroperitoneal mass. She underwent exploratory laparotomy and died due to surgical complications. Metastases to the thyroid and colon are rarely reported in cases of epidermoid carcinoma of the lungs. Gastrointestinal involvement in pulmonary metastases may affect the stomach, small intestine and colon, and cases of bleeding and perforation have already been reported. Although richly vascularized, the thyroid is an infrequent site for metastases. Such sites reflect poor prognoses for the clinical evolution. We did not find any previous reports in the literature, on lung cancer with metastases concomitantly in the colon and thyroid, in a single patient.

Primary Neoplasm

<p class="abstract">Squamous cell carcinoma of lung is most commonly associated with smoking. Its metastasis to contralateral neck node as the first presenting symptom is very rare. Tuberculosis (TB) and cancer of lung have causal relationship. There may also be coexistence of another neoplasm around the time of diagnosis of primary neoplasm. We present a case report of an 80 years old man who presented with a contralateral metastatic neck node. He was diagnosed to have coexistent lung cancer and pulmonary TB. In this journey towards diagnosis, the findings suggestive of tubercular larynx might have been a sequel of pulmonary TB.</p>
