Abstract
A right malar mass developed in a 68-year-old man who had undergone right upper and middle bilobectomy for lung cancer 2 years previously. The mass was diagnosed to be a malar metastasis from lung cancer and was surgically resected because no other metastases were found. The patient is well without signs of recurrence 5 years after resection of the malar mass. This is the first report of a malar metastasis from lung cancer and of successful resection for malar metastasis.Entities:
