Many treatment options are available for lung cancer, with the highest mortality among males. Pulmonary
malignancies can be addressed by a wide spectrum of treatment approaches. Treatment options can be
selected according to tumor localization. Chest wall metastasis, as reported in this study, is a very rare
clinical condition in which the chest wall generally requires reconstruction after resection of the tumor.
