RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Muscle metastases: rare problem with unusual solution JF BMJ Supportive & Palliative Care JO BMJ Support Palliat Care FD British Medical Journal Publishing Group SP 297 OP 298 DO 10.1136/bmjspcare-2018-001491 VO 8 IS 3 A1 Becky Hirst A1 Jack Powell YR 2018 UL http://spcare.bmj.com/content/8/3/297.abstract AB Skeletal muscle is an unusual site for metastasis from malignancy. We report a patient who presented with calf metastases from a squamous cell carcinoma of lung. Attempts were made to control his pain conservatively for almost 2 years before he was referred for a below-knee amputation. He did well following this and was able to stop the majority of his analgesic drugs.
