Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) occurs when large numbers of tumor cells lyse and release their contents, causing electrolyte derangements and renal injury. It is an uncommon complication of solid tumors and occurs most commonly after cytotoxic therapy rather than spontaneously. In this article, we describe a case of spontaneous TLS in a patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. We also present a literature review of spontaneous TLS occurrence in solid tumors.

A spontaneous pneumothorax may be the heralding manifestation of diffuse cystic lung disease (DCLD). Historically, these diagnoses were differentiated by unique clinical, radiographic and tissue pathology characteristics. With recent advancements in genomics, several forms of DCLD can now be diagnosed through genetic testing and patients can thereby avoid undergoing an invasive lung biopsy.
