RESUMEN
Small cell lung carcinoma is a rapidly progressive neuroendocrine tumor having a poor prognosis. It is considered as a systemic disease, because it has diffuse involvement, distant organ metastasis, and regional lymphatic involvement at the time of initial diagnosis. While small cell lung carcinomahas a lot of metastasis to bone, liver, surrenal and other hemithorax in the onset of disease, cutaneous metastasis are rarely seen. Skin metastasis are encountered in lower than 0.5% of the patients with metastatic diseases. In this article, we aimed to present a case of small cell lung carcinoma with cutaneous metastasis which is rarely seen in the literature.
RESUMEN
The abuse of hydrocarbon by inhalation in adolescent ages has increased in last year due to the euphoric effect it provokes. Butane, which is a kind of hydrocarbon compound, may be abused by inhalation and thus lead to addiction. Inhaling lighter fluid containing butane can cause lung toxicity, brain damage, myocardial effects, and neurologic problems. We reported, in parallel to literature, a 19-year-old patient who inhaled lighter fluid and who presented with lung haemorrhage, hypoxia and acute coronary syndrome.
