Abstract:
A case of endobronchial metastasis 2 yr following treatment of rectal carcinoma is presented. Endobronchial metastases from extrathoracic primary malignancies are uncommon, the estimated frequency and possible mechanisms underlying this complication are discussed. The importance of recognizing possible endobronchial metastasis is in the approach to management and prognosis.
