Abstract
We present a rare case of a pineal body metastasis developed from an oat cell carcinoma of the lung. Diagnosis by CT brain scan was easy but could have been difficult if the metastasis was solitary with the primary focus of tumor unknown. This lesion was temporarily radiosensitive but non-responsive to cytotoxic drugs and the patient died after other metastases developed.Entities:
