  • Title: Gastrointestinal hemorrhage and small cell carcinoma.
    Author: Payne T, Mayfield-Stokes S, Powers J, Roy TM.
    Journal: J Ky Med Assoc; 1994 Apr; 92(4):140-2. PubMed ID: 8006501.
    Abstract:
    Despite widespread dissemination of primary lung carcinoma by lymphangitic and hematogenous routes, acute gastrointestinal signs and symptoms are rarely presenting symptoms for bronchogenic carcinoma. We present a patient with small cell carcinoma of the lung who came to medical attention because of a lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage. In the absence of radiographically apparent pulmonary disease, the correct diagnosis was suggested by the biopsy specimens of the colon.
