Melena: An Unusual Manifestation of Metastatic Lung Cancer

Abstract

Lung cancer is the most common cancer around the world, and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Clinical manifestations of lung cancer may vary from non-specific respiratory symptoms to symptoms due to metastases. The most common sites of metastases are the lymph nodes, liver, adrenals, bone, and brain. Metastasis of lung cancer to stomach is very rare. Here, we present a case of squamous cell lung cancer in a 71-year male metastasing to the stomach, a very uncommon site of metastasis.
