Urothelial tumors of the upper urinary tract make up only about 5% of the urothelial tumors. In the treatment of metastatic disease, we use chemotherapeutic regimens based on a platinum derivative, as in urothelial bladder cancer. Following failure of a platinum derivative, vinflunine or taxanes (especially paclitaxel) may be given from chemotherapy in case of good performance status.

Subsolid lung nodulus in CT imaging in a female patient with colorectal carcinoma – case report

Lung cancer is the third most common malignant process in both women and men. Lung adenocarcinoma with lepidic growth is a variant that is characterized by its proliferative growth along intact alveolar walls. More women and non-smokers tend to be affected. Early diagnosis reveals a tumor process in the non-invasive or mini-invasive stage, and the prognosis for five-year survival is around 100%. The imaging method of choice is computed tomography, where a typical image of carcinoma with lepidic growth is the subsolid nodule. Theoretical information concerning this unusual diagnosis is supplemented in the article by a clear case report of a female patient with colorectal cancer and a subsolid nodulus of the left upper pulmonary lobe, in which histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma with lepidic growth.
