A 58-year-old patient is presented who had a pulmonary adenoid cystic carcinoma which recurred 10 years after sleeve left pneumonectomy. The patient developed acute heart failure because the lesion obstructed blood flow by compressing the left atrium. Transesophageal echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a solid mass arising from the pericardium which displaced the posterior wall of the left atrium. The mass was resected. Postoperative radiation was not performed.
We report a case of salivary gland neoplasm and associated hepatoblastoma. The sialoblastoma was diagnosed by prenatal sonography; however, the hepatoblastoma was imaged post-operatively. Prior knowledge could have prevented a subsequent operation, including the additional risks of repeat anesthesia. We suggest that if a sialoblastoma is in the differential diagnosis, then additional imaging may be indicated because of the possibility of associated lesions.
Because there is still considerable controversy concerning the anatomical boundaries separating the three regions of the larynx, cancer of the subglottis remains difficult to manage. We have reviewed the numerous differences in the anatomical definitions used in the literature and the consequent differences in reported findings on the incidence of subglottic cancer and its classification. We have also summarized the pathology of subglottic malignant neoplastic lesions, their presenting symptoms and tendency for spread, and the use of imaging methods in its diagnosis. Suitable forms of treatment are discussed, as are considerations on prognosis.
