We describe 2 cases of cavitary lung metastasis from bladder cancer and retrospectively analyze the frequency of such an event in our environment. Although rare, this finding is not exceptional and should be taken into account when clinicians and oncologists face the differential diagnosis of pulmonary cavitation. Moreover, a cavitary pulmonary nodule may also be the presenting sign of bladder cancer.
我们描述了2例膀胱癌肺空洞转移病例,并回顾性分析了在我们环境中此类事件的发生频率。尽管罕见,但这一发现并不罕见,临床医生和肿瘤学家在面对肺空洞的鉴别诊断时应予以考虑。此外,肺空洞性结节也可能是膀胱癌的首发症状。
