The lung is an extremely common site for metastasis from extrathoracic tumors. But

unusual lesions.
A 41, year-old male patient complained of dry cough for S month. The patient had
underwent total thyroidectomy with the right modified radical neck dissection because of
thyroid medullas carcinoma 14 months ago. The chest X-ray showed both hilar
prominancy. The chest computerized tomographic scan revealed endobronchial lesion in
the right main bronchus and the left upper lobe bronchus with multiple
lymphadenopathies in the subcarina and the left hilum. The bronchoscopy disclosed
polypoid mass and multiple small nodules on the bronchial wall. We confirmed
endobronchial metastasis from the thyroid medullas carcinoma by bronchoscopic biopsy.
