An unusual case of pulmonary adenocarcinoma with multiple and extraordinary metastases

Abstract

Pulmonary adenocarcinoma is one of the major types of lung cancers in which metastasis is not uncommon. Hereby we report a case of pulmonary adenocarcinoma with multiple muscular, cutaneous, pancreatic and peritoneal metastases. Actually, all these features occurring in one patient makes it an extraordinary case. A rare anatomic variation, double inferior vena cava (IVCs), was another rare manifestation in this case. © 2012, Iranian Society of Radiology and Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
