Metastatic Cervical Adenocarcinoma

Imaging findings

Chest CT shows widespread bilateral cavitary and solid lung nodules, some with a 'Cheerio' appearance (thin-walled cavities with halo/ground-glass opacity). Autopsy confirmed metastatic cervical adenocarcinoma.

Key takeaways

Metastatic cervical adenocarcinoma can present with multiple thin-walled cavitary lung metastases, mimicking primary lung adenocarcinoma or infectious septic emboli. Sparing of surrounding lung tissue help differentiate metastases from pneumonia.
