Parotid metastasis of small cell lung carcinoma. Case report
Abstract Introduction: Parotid gland metastases are originated from primary malignant cutaneous tumors of the face and scalp in most cases. In less than 20% of metastases, they arise from primary tumors below the clavicle; in fact, small cell lung carcinoma metastases constitute 1.7% of malignant parotid tumors. Description: We present the case of a 52- year old who made debut with a oat cell lung cancer by means of a painful tumor parotid and facial paralysis. Discussion: Parotid gland metastases are the first manifestation in the 50% of the cases of a previously unknown primary tumor. Conclusions: It´s important to performing a FNAC (fine needle aspiration cytology) before a parotid tumor of malignant behavior, such as small cell cancer, to rule out the metastatic nature.
