Asymptomatic lymphangitis carcinomatosis due to squamous cell lung carcinoma.

Lymphangitis carcinomatosa most commonly due to primary malignancy originating in the breast, stomach, pleura and prostate but may also originate from the lung itself. It is clinically characterised by progressing dyspnoea with or without cough even at an early stage. We report the case of a patient with squamous cell lung cancer presenting with asymptomatic lymphangitis carcinomatosa.
