Jaundice and Higher Procalcitonin Level Revealing a Small-Cell Lung Cancer With Pancreatic Metastasis: A Case Report From Eastern Morocco

Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is highly aggressive, with a severe tendency for metastasis. Pancreatic metastasis in SCLC is uncommon, also jaundice as a major symptom of small-cell lung cancer is even rarer. The diagnosis of pancreatic metastasis is a real challenge for the medical team, it relies o...

description Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is highly aggressive, with a severe tendency for metastasis. Pancreatic metastasis in SCLC is uncommon, also jaundice as a major symptom of small-cell lung cancer is even rarer. The diagnosis of pancreatic metastasis is a real challenge for the medical team, it relies on both radiological and pathological details. We report a case of a 58-year-old male admitted for SCLC with pancreatic metastasis and a higher level of procalcitonin. He received platinum-based chemotherapy with a swell response. The focus of this study will be on the characteristics of pancreatic metastasis, along with their diagnosis and treatment approaches. Procalcitonin as a paraneoplastic syndrome will also be discussed in this study.
