Metastasis

Metastasis

Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original site to distant locations in the body. Cancer cells can spread via blood vessels (hematogenous) as well as lymph vessels in the body.
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...

Summary

This study details a rare case of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) metastasis to the lungs. A 66-year-old man with a history of CLL developed pulmonary nodules, confirmed as CLL via biopsy and flow cytometry.

Area of Science:

Oncology
Pulmonary Medicine
Hematology

Background:

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a mature B-cell neoplasm with variable clinical courses.
Pulmonary involvement in CLL is uncommon, often presenting as nonspecific interstitial pneumonia or diffuse infiltrates.
