Tóm tắt

Metastases to the vocal cord from a distant organ are extremely rare. This case showed metastatic adenocarcinoma on the vocal cord of lung origin in a 75-year-old nonsmoking female with a history of lung adenocarcinoma surgery 2 years earlier. The vocal cord mass was surgically removed, and the biopsy confirmed metastatic adenocarcinoma of lung origin with thyroid transcription factor (TTF)-1 positivity. A further evaluation found recurrence in the lung. The patient received gefitinib. Here, we report an extremely rare case of metastatic adenocarcinoma on the vocal cord from the lung which is the first report to our knowledge.
