Pulmonary tumor embolism syndrome from occult colonic adenocarcinoma.

Robert Evans Heithaus1, Michael A Hitchcock, Joseph M Guileyardo.   

Abstract

Pulmonary tumor embolism syndrome is a rare phenomenon that can occur in patients who have an occult neoplasm that metastasizes. We describe a case of an elderly woman with an undiagnosed colon cancer who suffered from respiratory distress and compromised pulmonary blood flow from micrometastasis in the pulmonary arteries.
