ABSTRACT
An 88-year-old man underwent thoracoscopic lower lobectomy for left lung cancer at the age of 87. Ten months later, he was examined closely for abdominal distention, frequent constipation, and anemia with a decreased Hb of 6.1 g/dL. The CT scan revealed an irregular tumor with contrast effect. The patient was diagnosed with malignant tumor of small intestine. At laparotomy, a tumor of 5 cm in diameter was found in the jejunum, and small bowel resection was done. Pathological examination revealed that the tumor was a metastasis of lung cancer. Seven months later, the patient is currently an outpatient, with no evidence of cancer recurrence.
