• In more than 95% of patients with multiple pulmonary nodules, the etiology of the nodules is (a) metastases or (b) tuberculous or fungal granulomas

• Pt has had menstrual irregularities for more than 1 year –visited doctor 5 months back found to have mass descending PV advised Surgery but she refused and took native treatment.
• Past Gynaecological hx – Per Vaginal Exm: showed hard mass involving the vaginal vault and extending from the uterine Cervix.

FINAL Diagnosis
• LEIOMYOSARCOMA WITH MULTIPLE PULMONARY SECONDARIES (Cannon ball Metastasis )

CAUSES OF CAVITARY PULMONARY NODULES
Carcinoma (bronchogenic, metastases especially squamous cell)
Autoimmune (Wegener granulomatosis, rheumatoid nodules)
Vascular (bland and septic emboli)
Infection (especially mycobacterial and fungal)
Trauma (pneumatocele)
Young i.e., congenital (sequestration, diaphragmatic hernia, bronchogenic cyst)

SOURCE OF METASTASIS
• breast, colon kidney, uterus, prostate, head, and neck (M.C).
• choriocarcinoma, osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, testicular tumors melanoma, and thyroid carcinoma(L.C)
• Calcification most commonly with osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma or after successful treatment of metastases.
• A miliary nodular pattern of metastases is seen most commonly with thyroid or renal carcinoma, bone sarcoma, trophoblastic disease, or melanoma.
