Overview
Many authors have concluded that performing a complete assessment, with a detailed history and physical examination, is useful for identifying patients with a higher likelihood of metastases.
Physical Examination
- Cachexic: weight loss and anorexia.
- Pale skin and conjunctiva: chronic disease anemia.
- Cyanotic: dyspnea
