Isolated small bowel metastasis of bronchogenic carcinoma is so distinctly unusual that only three previous case reports have been located. The authors report the case of a 59-year-old white male, who succumbed due to complications of a jejunal metastasis two months after left upper lobectomy for large cell carcinoma. The diagnosis was suspected preoperatively on the basis of a CT scan.
