Disclosure
• Nothing to disclose
• My presentation will not include discussion of off-label or unapproved usage.
Objectives • Case based image review of common
oncologic emergencies in the Chest, abdomen and pelvis.
• Discussion on the differential diagnosis of each entity.
• Typical and atypical presentation of acute findings in patients with known malignancies.
• Side effects and toxicity of new targeted therapies and local therapies in the oncologic population.
72-year-old female. Lung cancer. SOB, tachycardia, left upper extremity swelling.
Diagnosis: SVC syndrome and a “hot quadrate” lobe.Findings: Non-opacification of the SVC, right hilar/mediastinal mass anterior chest wall collaterals and enhancement of segment 4.

64 YO male with known NSCLC
Lymphangitic spread of tumor/Carcinomatosis Pattern: Interlobular septal thickening , effusion, mass in the right lung Differential for Carcinomatosis: Lymphoma, Pulmonary edema, sarcoidosisAcute interstitial pneumonitis secondary to drug reaction
Diagnosis: SCC of the trachea Narrowing of the trachea, widening of mediastinum and no abnormalities are seen in the lungs.DX: Mets, sarcoidosis, adenoid cystic carcinoma of the trachea, TBO, Wegners, lymphoma, amyloidosis
65-year-old male.
Hx: SOB, cough, tachycardia.
Diagnosis: Nerve sheath tumor (neurofibroma, schwannoma are he benign types of PNST)Schwanoma is the encapsulated form; Neurofibroma the non encapsulated form. Malignant type of peripheral nerve sheath tumor (spindle cell neoplasm.)Differential (on Xray): Neuroenteric cyst, Meningocele. Pancoast tumor would expect rib destruction
40 YO male with chest pain Side Effects in QT• Many types of lung toxicity have been reported in regular QT
– Interstitial pneumonitis/NSIP/fibrosis
– Hypersensitivity reactions
– Diffuse alveolar damage/ ARDS/ NCPE
– Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia• In targeted Therapy Drug targets specific cancer cells • Cancer cells express specific receptors (e.g. epidermal growth
factor receptor [EGFR] in a variety of solid tumors)• Benefits of targeted antineoplastic drugs
– Increased specificity– Decreased toxicity– Enhanced effect of conventional chemotherapy and radiation

71 year old female with NSCLC on an erlotinib. SOB
Dx: Cavitational change with hemorrhage Initial CT : large left upper lobe mass. 2 months later, ct showed cavitation in the mass with surrounding ground glass attenuation secondary to hemorrhage
66 year old male with post transplant lymphoproliferative disorder on rituximab.
Dx ARDS induced by RituximabInitial CT: diffuse abnormality with bilateral effusions, ground glass attenuation, thickened interstitial Repeat CT after discontinuation of therapy shows some improvement. PET CT shows diffuse parenchymal uptake of FDG in keeping with a diffuse inflammatory process (arrow). Biopsy revealed diffuse alveolar damage.
73 year old female on bevacizumab for stage IV NSCLC. Worsening shortness of breath
Dx: Bevacizumab induced BP fistulaBevacizumab- Anti angiogenic drugCommon side effects: Tissue necrosis, thrombosis, and hemorrhage.

54 YO F, NSCLC on gefitinib. Initial CT showed
DX: acute Capillary syndrome Initial CT patchy opacification, septal thickening and groundglass attenuation. Repeat CT showed interval development of a right pleural effusion, and more coarse thickening of the interstitium. An atypical infection was suspected, but pathology revealed areas of pneumonitis
Initial CT Follow-up
58 year old male with NSCLC on bevacizumab. SOB
DX: NSIP Post treatment CT shows interval development of groundglass attenuation, interstitial thickening and parenchymal bands. Subpleura sparing . Biopsy showed NSIP.
54 YO F with ovarian cancer on Erlotinib, shortness of breath
54 year old female with ovarian cancer on Erlotinib. CT demonstrates new geographic groundglass attenuation in the right upper lobe, which was sub clinical.
85 year old male with NSCLC on Erlotinib. CT shows new onset right lower lobe groundglass attenuation
54 year old female with ovarian cancer on Erlotinib.
Cryptogenic Organizing Pneumonia Bronchovascular bundle thickening, peripheral consolidations No specific distribution.
