Abstract
Right axillary lymph node metastases was observed 4 months after a rig ht lower lobectomy performed for a T2 N0 lung adenocarcinoma. After su rgical excision and subsequent radiotherapy follow-up was uneventful a nd the patient is still alive after a 6-year interval. Such isolated m etastases are probably of systemic origin.
