RESUMEN

Distant metastases in squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck are most often to the lung, liver and bone. They rarely metastasise to chest wall. We report a 60-year-old male patient who initially presented with an abscess over the anterior chest wall that was initially treated for infective pathology. Due to lack of response, cytological examination was performed that turned out to be metastasis from carcinoma larynx.

RESUMEN

The term right middle lobe syndrome (RMLS) is often used in clinical practice though it has no consistent definition. Inflammatory lesion, malignant tumors followed by bronchiectasis are considered as the most common etiological factors for RMLS. Here we describe 12 cases of RMLS due to tuberculous etiology diagnosed over a period of 6.5 years at our Institute. They were diagnosed using conventional methods and responded to anti-tubercular treatment with favourable outcome. The cases are being presented here to highlight the fact that tuberculosis, though not frequently reported in published literature, is an important etiological factor and must be considered for differential diagnosis when RMLS is evaluated particularly in regions where the prevalence of tuberculosis is high as it responds to anti-tubercular chemotherapy remarkably.

RESUMEN

The most frequent cause of diaphragmatic paralysis and hoarseness of voice is involvement of phrenic nerve and recurrent laryngeal nerve by a thoracic malignancy. Here, we describe a patient who developed diaphragmatic paralysis and hoarseness of voice due to mediastinal tuberculous lymphadenopathy, which is not a common etiological factor leading to it.
