Abstract:
Here we report the first noted case of a small cell carcinoma of the lung (oat cell carcinoma) presenting as metastases in the patella. Malignancies of the patella, primary or secondary, are rare. First presentation of a malignancy with metastases in the patella has only been recorded once previously.
