Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer related deaths and at presentation over 50% of patients already have metastatic disease. Intestinal metastasis is not a very common occurrence and symptomatic intestinal metastasis is even rarer. We present a case where patient was simultaneously diagnosed to have lung cancer and extensive brain and symptomatic intestinal metastasis where resection of the intestinal lesion is the best option of treatment for the metastasis.
