Abstract:
A 60-year-old woman with disseminated small cell carcinoma of the lung and hemophagocytosis by the metastatic cells in the bone marrow is presented. It is the first clinicopathologic report on phagocytosis of erythrocytes by lung tumor cells in concordance with a recently described evidence of a macrophage origin of small cell carcinoma of the lung.
