Metastasis: Consolidation Lung Parenchyma Lesion
Cancers are sorted by a combination of rarity, overall frequency of metastases, and predilection for this site.
| Cancer | Frequency | Comments |
| Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma | (Primary Tumor) |  BAC presents as a single or multiple consolidations (in early stages, it appears as a ground-glass opacity). SCC is more likely to cavitate. |
| Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma | Uncommon | bronchoalveolar metastases appear as consolidation, while classical lung cancers will just appear as nodules (or lymphangiitic spread) |
| Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma | Rare |  |
| Hodgkin's Lymphoma | Rare | can also invade locally from the hilum or mediastinum. Most common pattern is nodules. |
