Article information

Laryngeal adenocarcinomas are extremely unusual (only 0.35%–0.5% of all laryngeal malignancies). It usually behaves as a highly malignant tumour, with tendency for local lymph node and distant organ metastases. We report a case of a 64-year-old man with an adenocarcinoma of the larynx with cervical lymph node involvement at the moment of the diagnosis. The patient was treated with surgery (total laryngectomy and cervical lymph node dissection) and postoperative radiotherapy. Seven months later, the patient had a local recurrence.

El adenocarcinoma de laringe es un tipo de tumor muy infrecuente, que supone sólo un 0,35–0,5% de las neoplasias laríngeas malignas. Se caracteriza por su elevada agresividad y por su tendencia a producir metástasis en los ganglios linfáticos regionales y a distancia. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 64 años de edad con un adenocarcinoma de laringe con metástasis ganglionares en el momento del diagnóstico. Fue tratado con una combinación de cirugía y radioterapia postoperatoria. Siete meses después presentó recidiva regional.
