Clinically significant symptoms due to gastrointestinal metastases from primary lung cancers is rare. A case of life-threatening lower gastrointestinal haemorrhage secondary to metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the lung is reported. Previous reports of such metastases are reviewed, with reference to management and prognosis. After resection of colonic metastases from squamous cell lung cancer, survival is similar to that for primary disease. It is suggested that patients with known or suspected squamous cell lung cancer presenting with lower gastrointestinal symptoms be managed as aggressively as those with no previous history of disease.
