• Resumen

  • We present the case of an 80-year-old patient hospitalized for the study of a lower limb bone lesion. The biopsy of this lesion was suggestive of liver cancer metastasis. However, the study of the liver did not present any local lesion. In the event of an hepatoid tumor, a study of the digestive tract was performed, without detection of neoplasia. By recurrent respiratory infections, it was hypothesized a tumoral lesion at this level, which was confirmed by later thorax CT and biopsy.
