Abstract
We present a case report of a pulmonary pleomorphic carcinoma that metastasized to the jejunum in an 80-year-old woman. The patient was admitted to the hospital with symptomatic anemia and melena that had been ongoing for several months. In 2021, non-small cell carcinoma was diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration. In 2022, a computed tomography (CT) scan revealed an enormous mass in the small bowel. The tumor was resected and showed pleomorphic neoplastic cells with giant and spindle cell morphology. These neoplastic cells were positive for thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF1). Next-generation sequencing of the secondary tumor revealed 97% genomic similarities to the lung tumor and high expression of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1). The patient may benefit from immune checkpoint therapy.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
