Abstract

We report a very rare case of combined small cell lung carcinoma (C-SCLC) which presented as persistent cough and was due to endotracheal metastases. Clinicians should be aware of this unusual site of metastases from a C-SCLC.

Keywords: combined small cell lung carcinoma; endotracheal metastases; lung cancer.
