Abstract

Recently, some cases of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) with lung metastasis have been reported, but those involving simultaneous tracheal, bronchial, and lung metastases have been rarely reported. Here, we have reported a very unusual case of BCC with metastasis, presenting with lung nodules and endobronchial lesions after two metastasectomies. Since BCC is a slow-growing cancer that rarely metastasizes to distant organs, tumor stage workup including radiological imaging has not been routinely performed in clinical practice. This case showed that BCC can metastasize to the lung, although the currently reported metastasis rate of BCC is extremely low.

基底细胞癌合并肺及支气管内转移1例。

近年来，已有一些基底细胞癌合并肺转移的病例报道，但同时发生气管、支气管和肺转移的病例报道甚少。在此，我们报告了一个非常罕见的BCC合并转移的病例，在两次转移切除后表现为肺结节和支气管内病变。由于BCC是一种生长缓慢的癌症，很少转移到远处器官，因此在临床实践中，包括放射成像在内的肿瘤分期检查尚未常规进行。本病例表明，尽管目前报道的BCC转移率极低，但BCC可以转移到肺部。
