Metastatic carcinoma of the palatine tonsil is rare, with only 92 cases reported in the world literature. We report a case of tonsillar metastasis from the colon. This is an unusual case not only because it is the first case report of tonsillar metastasis from this site but also because the tonsillar secondary is the first sign of the primary disease.
腭扁桃体转移性癌罕见，世界文献中仅报道过92例。我们报告1例结肠来源的扁桃体转移癌。这是1例不寻常的病例，不仅因为它是该部位扁桃体转移的首例病例报道，还因为扁桃体继发性肿瘤是原发性疾病的首发体征。
