| dc.description.abstract | Malign pleural mesothelioma is characterized as an aggressive tumor that spreads widely on the pleura and invases directly thoracic structures. Miliary metastases are very rare in malignant pleural mesotheliomas. However, they can be observed at the time of diagnosis in some of the cases when the primary lesion is not detected and in some others in the later stages. For this reason one should suspect malignant mesotheliomas in the differential diagnosis when presentation is with diffuse miliary or micronodular pulmonary lesions. Immunehistochemical studies are helpful especially in differential diagnosis of other metastases when the primary lesion is not known. Here, a 58 year-old woman having mixed type malignant pleural mesothelioma is being presented because she had miliary pulmonary metastases revealed in thorax CT at the 9th month of the diagnosis. She was not a smoker and there was no history of asbest exposition. The patient died due to respiratory insufficiency at the 17th month of the diagnosis. | en_US |
