Abstract:
Small bowel metastases due to lung cancer are extremely rare and predominantly cause intestinal obstruction, perforation and gastrointestinal bleeding. We report the case of a 51-year-old man diagnosed with pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma to which an ileal mass was subsequently removed which was found to be compatible with intestinal localization of pulmonary carcinoma.
