A Rare Case of Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer Metastasizing to the Pituitary Gland

Abstract

Metastases to the pituitary gland are rare. We here present a case of a 52-year-old man with non-small cell lung cancer where pituitary metastasis was detected on staging F-FDG PET-CT, characterized with MRI and confirmed at histopathology. By demonstrating such rare site of metastasis, F-FDG PET-CT can have significant impact on management of cancer patients.
