“…A range of tumor lesions may affect the chest, from tumors of epithelial origin such as breast, lung, tracheal, esophageal, thymic carcinomas, and embryonic germ cell carcinomas to tumors of mesenchymal origin, including liposarcomas, osteosarcomas, leiomyosarcomas and lymphomas ( 15 , 35 , 36 , 40 , 41 , 43 , 48 , 49 ) . The chest is also a frequent site of metastatic implants from originally primary tumors or from extrathoracic tumors, either by lymphatic or hematogenous dissemination or by contiguity ( 40 - 42 ) .…”
