Five cases of miliary lung metastasis among 630 patients with bronchogenic carcinoma were investigated. Bone metastases from the bronchogenic carcinoma were observed in 246 (39 percent) of these 630 patients, and the five were all patients in this latter group. These results suggest that bronchogenic carcinoma may produce miliary lung metastasis through its bone metastasis.
对630例支气管源性癌患者中的5例粟粒性肺转移病例进行了调查。在这630例患者中,观察到246例(39%)发生了支气管源性癌的骨转移,而这5例均为后一组患者。这些结果表明,支气管源性癌可能通过其骨转移产生粟粒性肺转移。
