Atypical Lung Metastases From Pancreatic Cancer

Pulmonary metastases from pancreatic cancer rarely show an alveolar pattern on computed tomography (CT). A 77-year-old man presented with a productive cough; CT showed ground-glass opacities and consolidations, and a tumour in the pancreas was incidentally detected. Biopsy led to a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer with lung metastases.

Abstract

Pulmonary metastases from pancreatic cancer rarely show an alveolar pattern on computed tomography (CT). A 77-year-old man presented with a productive cough; CT showed ground-glass opacities and consolidations, and a tumour in the pancreas was incidentally detected. Biopsy led to a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer with lung metastases.
