Lymphangitic Carcinomatosis Presenting as Cough: A Case of Occult Metastatic Prostate Adenocarcinoma

Conclusion: LC is a metastatic pattern commonly associated with solid tumors, particularly breast, gastric, and lung cancers. Its occurrence in prostate cancer is exceptionally rare. This condition is typically linked with advanced disease and a poor prognosis, often serving as a critical indicator of an underlying malignancy that may otherwise go undetected.
