ABSTRACT

CASE PRESENTATION An 88-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with the sudden onset of dyspnea after eating. The patient had undergone nephrectomy for a left renal tumor 24 years previously. The patient had been prescribed ferrous citrate for iron-deficiency anemia. She complained of appetite loss a few days before admission but had no abdominal pain. CT scan showed no abnormalities in the lungs but a mass in the liver.
