Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality. Nearly 50% of patients with primary LC have distant metastases at the time of initial diagnosis. LC usually metastasizes from the lungs to the liver, adrenal glands, brain, and bone, but rarely to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Most gastrointestinal metastases (GIM) from LC are found on the basis of primary LC. GIM of LC with GI symptoms as the initial symptom is extremely rare. Moreover, the overall survival time of lung cancer patients developing intestinal metastases is from 5 weeks to 1 year, and most patients will die within the first 6 months. This report describes an uncommon case of lung adenocarcinoma that metastasized to the colon with initial symptoms involving the GI tract. After immunotherapy, the condition was stable for more than 2 years, and he is currently in good condition.
期刊介绍：
Thoracic Cancer aims to facilitate international collaboration and exchange of comprehensive and cutting-edge information on basic, translational, and applied clinical research in lung cancer, esophageal cancer, mediastinal cancer, breast cancer and other thoracic malignancies. Prevention, treatment and research relevant to Asia-Pacific is a focus area, but submissions from all regions are welcomed. The editors encourage contributions relevant to prevention, general thoracic surgery, medical oncology, radiology, radiation medicine, pathology, basic cancer research, as well as epidemiological and translational studies in thoracic cancer. Thoracic Cancer is the official publication of the Chinese Society of Lung Cancer, International Chinese Society of Thoracic Surgery and is endorsed by the Korean Association for the Study of Lung Cancer and the Hong Kong Cancer Therapy Society.
The Journal publishes a range of article types including: Editorials, Invited Reviews, Mini Reviews, Original Articles, Clinical Guidelines, Technological Notes, Imaging in thoracic cancer, Meeting Reports, Case Reports, Letters to the Editor, Commentaries, and Brief Reports.
