We present here a case of primary lung adenocarcinoma with miliary lesions and diagnosed by bronchoscopy.
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Diffuse miliary lesions in the lungs are mostly observed in tuberculosis, sarcoidosis and pneumoconiosis, while hematogenous metastases of some cancers of the lung may rarely have a miliary appearance.

Abstract
Diffuse miliary lesions in the lungs are mostly observed in tuberculosis, sarcoidosis and pneumoconiosis, while hematogenous metastases of some cancers of the lung may rarely have a miliary appearance. We present here a case of primary lung adenocarcinoma with miliary lesions and diagnosed by bronchoscopy.
Özet
Akciğerlerde yaygın milier görünüm daha çok tüberküloz, sarkoidoz ve pnömokonyozlarda gözlenir. Bazı kanserlerin akciğere hematojen metastazları da, nadiren milier görünüm yapabilir. Biz milier dağılım gösteren ve bronkoskopi ile tanı koyduğumuz bir primer akciğer adenokarsinomu olgusunu sunduk.
