case_images: Computed tomography scan (axial section) of thorax showing a large heterogeneously enhancing soft tissue mass lesion in the right perihilar region involving right lower lobe extending into the mediastinum with loss of fat planes with esophagus, aorta, and right crus of the diaphragm. There is no chest wall or pleural involvement

case_images: MRI brain [Figure 4] showed an 8.6 cm x 7.5 cm solitary lesion with areas of altered signal intensity at right periventricular and periatrial parietal lobe with significant perilesional edema suggestive of hemorrhagic metastatic deposit.
case_images: Immunohistochemistry picture from brain metastasis showing tumor cells positive for (a) synaptophysin (x100), (b) chromogranin (x200), (c) vimentin (x100), (d) CD 99 (x200)

case_images: IHC was positive for synaptophysin [Figure 5a], chromogranin [Figure 5b], vimentin [Figure 5c], and CD 99 [Figure 5d] with Ki67 of 90% while negative for CK, TTF-1, and melan-A which suggested metastasis from primary PNET lung.
