A 57\u2010year\u2010old man who had undergone resection of a malignant melanoma of the right bulbar conjunctiva at the age of 51 was referred to our hospital for management of ground glass opacity in his left lung. Because radiological examination suggested the nodule was an adenocarcinoma <jats:italic>in situ<\/jats:italic>, computed tomography (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CT<\/jats:styled-content>) follow\u2010up was planned. <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CT<\/jats:styled-content> examination performed nine months later showed that the nodule had grown from 6\u2009mm to 8\u2009mm. Moreover, <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CT<\/jats:styled-content> performed one and a half years after first detection revealed that the nodule had grown up to 10\u2009mm. The patient, therefore, underwent partial resection of the lung for diagnosis and treatment. Pathological examination of the resected specimen revealed atypical cells with melanin granules proliferating in a lepidic\u2010like fashion. The cells were positive on <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">S<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010100 staining, indicating a pulmonary metastasis from malignant melanoma.
