RESUMEN

Ewing's sarcoma (EWS) is a rare malignant bone tumor that primarily affects children and young adults. While it typically affects long bones, it can occur in the head and neck region, including the paranasal sinuses in rare cases. We present a challenging case of a 45-year-old female diagnosed with an EWS of the sphenoidal and the right nasal fossa. A subtotal removal of the mass was performed on the patient followed by combined adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Due to its rarity, the diagnosis and management of EWS in the paranasal sinuses are challenging.

RESUMEN

Lipomas are benign and slow-growing neoplasms that typically develop in the subcutaneous tissue. They rarely occur in the upper aerodigestive tract. Oropharyngeal lipomas are rare. They represent 0.5% of all neoplasms of the head and neck. We present a case of a 43-year-old female with a polypoid mass in the base of the left palatine tonsil. The patient underwent a left tonsillectomy and a resection of the mass. The pathological diagnosis was tonsillar lipoma. We describe the clinical characteristics and the management of this rare case. Palatine tonsillar lipoma is a rare benign tumor with an unusual recurrence rate, and an excellent prognosis.

RESUMEN

Malignant lesions and tuberculosis coexisting at the same anatomical site in a patient are extremely uncommon. We present a case of a 53-year-old female with cervical lymphadenitis tuberculosis combined with metastatic papillary thyroid carcinoma. Thyroidectomy was performed on the patient with central and lateral neck dissection. The patient received anti-tuberculosis medication and radioactive iodine ablation. No recurrence was observed during a 2-year follow-up period.

RESUMEN

This report describes the unique case of a 37-year-old pregnant patient with a history of total thyroidectomy who presented worsening dyspnea due to a recurrent benign goiter. The goiter grew through the tracheal wall and narrowed the tracheal lumen. After unsuccessful treatment with bronchodilators and corticosteroids, the patient underwent an emergency tracheostomy and cesarean section. Cervicothoracic computed tomography revealed a 4 cm mass in the left lobe of the thyroid gland with endotracheal extension in the subglottic region. Exploratory cervicectomy revealed a macroscopically resected mass that resembles the structure of the thyroid, adherent to the esophagus, anterior to the cricoid cartilage, and the trachea. Intratracheal thyroid tissue was not excised due to the increased risk of bleeding, and endoscopically guided biopsies were performed. Histopathological examination confirmed the benign nature of the thyroid tissue. A follow-up computed tomography scan after 2 months showed spontaneous regression of the intratracheal mass, and the tracheostomy tube was successfully removed without complications.
