Malignant melanoma is an aggressive cancer with a high metastatic potential. Among the multiple sites of metastatic disease, the lung is one of the most frequently involved sites. Typically, pulmonary metastases from malignant melanoma occur as solid nodules. Rarely, pulmonary involvement in metastatic melanoma occurs as subsolid nodules. The present article describes an unusual case of a patient with malignant melanoma that developed two synchronous pulmonary metastases with two different densities on CT images (one solid and the other subsolid) and different morphological patterns on histologic images. The radiologic-pathologic correlation of these two patterns of presentation was also reported.

“…They could also present as subsolid nodules [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] . Some of the rare CT patterns of malignant melanoma metastases to the lungs that are documented in literature are “crazy-paving,” “halo-sign,” ground glass opacities and a synchronous presentation of solid and subsolid nodules [ 6 , [13] , [14] , [15] ].…”
