Abstract
Multiple cavitary nodules are not generally recognized as a manifestation of pulmonary metastases. We present a case of cavitary pulmonary nodules proved to be metastases from pancreas cancer. Although very rare, cavitary nodules should be considered as a pulmonary involvement by metastatic pancreas cancer. We also recognize the importance of obtaining appropriate specimen to establish correct diagnosis of cavitary nodules. In some cases of metastatic pulmonary tumors, such as ours, enough specimens may be obtained by bronchoscopic biopsy.
