Solitary splenic metastasis of squamous lung cancer: a case report.

Background: Lung cancer is the second commonest malignant tumour, with its splenic metastasis being a rare event.

Case Presentation: We report an exceedingly rare case of a moderate-to-low differentiation squamous cell lung carcinoma in a middle-aged man with a large solitary splenic metastasis detected simultaneously with the primary tumour. Surgical removal of both the primary tumour and the solitary splenic metastasis offered the patient the best treatment option.

Sequestered hypoplastic pulmonary lobe supplied by the circumflex coronary artery in a patient with coronary artery disease: a case report.

Bronchopulmonary sequestrations are usually supplied by single or multiple branches from the descending aorta. We report on a rare form of sequestration of a hypoplastic mid-pulmonary lobe with arterial supply from the circumflex coronary artery coincidentally discovered during coronary angiography in a female patient with coronary artery disease and a history of recurrent hemoptysis. The patient underwent myocardial revascularization and resection of the sequestered lobe in a single-stage approach.
