Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is a relatively uncommon malignancy due to the human papillomavirus or environmental factors such as excessive alcohol or tobacco use. Its most common metastatic locations are the lungs, bone, and liver. We are reporting a much more exceedingly rare site, a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) site. HNSCC metastases and recurrences are commonly seen; however, they present complex challenges to manage successfully. Our presenting patient had an initial diagnosis of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma and then developed an isolated metachronous metastatic tumor at the site of his gastrostomy tract approximately one year later.
头颈部鳞状细胞癌(HNSCC)是一种相对不常见的恶性肿瘤,其病因有人乳头瘤病毒或环境因素,如过量饮酒或吸烟。其最常见的转移部位是肺、骨和肝。我们报告了一个极为罕见的转移部位,即经皮内镜下胃造口术(PEG)部位。HNSCC转移和复发很常见;然而,成功管理它们面临着复杂的挑战。我们的这位患者最初被诊断为下咽鳞状细胞癌,大约一年后在其胃造口部位出现了孤立的异时性转移瘤。
