Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is a highly aggressive malignancy that usually presents at a late stage. Common sites of metastasis include the liver, lung and adjacent lymph nodes. Cervical lymph node involvement has been reported previously but there are no documented cases of submandibular lymph node metastasis in the available literature. We describe a case of pancreatic adenocarcinoma metastasis to the left submandibular lymph node with no confirmed concurrent sites of metastasis.
胰腺腺癌是一种侵袭性很强的恶性肿瘤，通常在晚期出现。常见的转移部位包括肝脏、肺和邻近淋巴结。先前已有宫颈淋巴结受累的报道，但现有文献中尚无下颌下淋巴结转移的记录病例。我们描述了一例胰腺腺癌转移至左下颌下淋巴结且无其他确诊转移部位的病例。
