LUNG - Secondary carcinoma (predominantly pleural metastases)

Description
The specimen comprises the outer portion of the left lung, showing an irregular finely-lobulated surface. Nodules of metastatic tumour vary in size from 1 mm to 1 cm; in some areas they have become confluent to produce large pleural plaques. The cut surface of the lung shows one subpleural deposit of tumour (4 x 1.5cm) as well as a number of small tumour nodules. No other information is available.
