Unusual clinical manifestation of metastatic pulmonary carcinoma. A case report and review of the literature
Abstract
We report a case of ileal metastasis from a clinically evident bronchial carcinoma with an unusual symptomatology due to intestinal obstruction. Only 25 cases of ileal metastasis have been previously reported in the literature in which the diagnosis was made due to the presence of abdominal symptoms related to intestinal perforation in 24 cases. We describe our atypical case with differential diagnosis and review of the literature.
