PATIENT SUMMARY: We reviewed outcomes among kidney cancer patients who presented with small lung nodules and developed a clinical tool to predict risk of developing lung metastases. Copyright 2015 European Association of Urology.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We present a case of an 18-year-old man who presented with chest pain, cough and haemosputum with markedly raised serum α-fetoprotein (AFP) levels above 112,000 ng/mL. Chest roentgenogram and CT showed a giant anterior mediastinal mass.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In the present report, we describe the first case of pulmonary metastasis from renal epithelioid angiomyolipoma in the setting of breast cancer.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The present case suggests that CMV-PTC with a high Ki-67 labeling index may cause visceral metastasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
To the best of our knowledge, cases of pulmonary metastases presenting as a pulmonary arteriovenous malformation have not been reported.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Herein a previously healthy patient was admitted for dysphagia and fatigue, without significant weightloss. The pathological and molecular tests revealed his diagnosis of BRAF-mutant, advanced PMME with localized pulmonary metastasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
She had no history of weightloss/body pain or any respiratory symptoms. She was not a diabetic or hypertensive.[thetrp.net]
She had abdominal pain, occasional fever and weightloss for 3 months. Progressive breathlessness was present for 15 days. Her physical examination was unremarkable.[err.ersjournals.com]
The symptoms of metastatic lung cancer can include: a persistent cough coughing up blood or bloody phlegm chest pain shortness of breath wheezing weakness sudden weightloss For cancer cells to metastasize, they must go through several changes.[healthline.com]
This 13-year-old girl admitted with 1-year history of cough, intermittent fever, and recurrent hemoptysis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In 2012, seven years after the initial surgery, the patient complained several times of a persistent cough. Antitussives were prescribed without any improvement of the symptoms.[pagepress.org]

This 13-year-old girl admitted with 1-year history of cough, intermittent fever, and recurrent hemoptysis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
He presented at our emergency unit within 4 years of completion of the chemotherapy, with sudden massive hemoptysis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A 39-year-old Japanese woman presented with hemoptysis, dyspnea, and a well-defined tumor measuring 3.0 cm in greatest diameter in the right lower lobe on chest computed tomography (CT).[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hemoptysis and pneumothorax are sometimes the presenting symptom. Tumor cells reach the lungs via the pulmonary circulation, where they lodge in small distal vessels.[radiopaedia.org]
Twenty-two months after completion of radiation therapy, the patient developed a lower left lobe pneumonia.[ecancer.org]
Physicians have long noted an association between lung inflammation – seen in smokers or in people with lung diseases such as asthma, COPD and emphysema, and pneumonia – and the development of lung tumors.[news.cornell.edu]

A 29-year-old woman presented with nasal congestion and rhinorrhea for 6 months. CT scanning showed a large mass in the right maxillary sinus, which had infiltrated the surrounding tissues.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Herein a previously healthy patient was admitted for dysphagia and fatigue, without significant weight loss. The pathological and molecular tests revealed his diagnosis of BRAF-mutant, advanced PMME with localized pulmonary metastasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Acute toxicities (eg, cough, dyspnea, dysphagia, nausea, and fatigue) were reported in half of the patients treated with whole-lung irradiation.[ascopost.com]
Acute (0 to 6 months) EBRT side effects include esophagitis, dysphagia, erythema, and a need for tracheostomy, while late complications (6 months to 2 years) include xerostomia, esophageal stenosis, tracheal constriction, carotid stenosis, and brachial[thyroid.org]
A 77-year-old man was admitted to our hospital due to exertional dyspnea and liverdysfunction. Computed tomography showed widespread infiltration and a ground-glass opacity in the lung and dilation of the intrahepatic bile duct.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Isolated pulmonary metastasis was defined as limited to presumable pulmonary metastasis according to the follow-up radiologic workup. RESULTS: Thirty-five patients were identified to have repeat pulmonary metastasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Chest roentgenogram and CT showed a giant anteriormediastinalmass. CT guided biopsy revealed a diagnosis of endodermal sinus tumour.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
An anteriormediastinalmass had been incidentally noticed on chest computed tomography (CT) approximately 10 years previously (patient age, 64 years). The patient refused surgery, and he was conservatively followed-up by annual CT scan.[wjso.biomedcentral.com]
Therefore, early detection, adequate treatment of the primary bone lesion, conservative treatment of lung metastases, and regular long-term follow-up are recommended. Copyright 2016, SLACK Incorporated.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The type of DTC is the only factor that affects the response to treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Aims of this study were to retrospectively analyze treatment outcomes and to find prognostic factors for survivals.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
These findings demonstrate co-targeting of DNA, RNA and protein molecules as a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of metastasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In vivo, animal experiments showed that THF treatment resulted in significant reduction in syngeneic tumor growth, microvascular density and lung metastasis rate.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In this study, by assessing the metastasis pattern, we aimed to identify the factors that may affect prognosis and response to treatment in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) with pulmonary metastasis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Abstract Objective This retrospective analysis aimed to determine the factors influencing prognosis in adult patients who presented to our thoracic surgery service with lung metastases and were eligible for pulmonary metastasectomy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

PURPOSE: Prognosis of synchronous hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with pulmonary metastasis (PM) was poor, while aggressive intrahepatic therapies remained controversial.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This study indicated that most DTC patients with pulmonary metastases can obtain partial or complete remission after RIT, while older patients with higher Tg levels at diagnosis and extrapulmonary distant metastases more likely show poor prognosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
