Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) of the trachea is an extremely rare malignancy with only a few reported cases in English literature. As such the diagnosis can be frequently missed or delayed. We present a case of a 69-year-old male who underwent tracheostomy for airway obstruction secondary to glottic squamous cell carcinoma and treated definitely with radiation therapy. Subsequently, the patient developed LMS of the tracheostomy site. The case further details multiple risk factors that could contribute to development of LMS including radiation exposure, prior malignancy, and chronic inflammation. These risk factors have been well established for LMS in other sites but less so in the head and neck region, which is the subject of our discussion. We also review the current guidelines for head and neck as well as limb sarcomas and discussed role of surgery or radiation and their accompanying challenges in management of this rare malignancy.

✓ Primary intracerebral squamous cell carcinoma is a rare sequela of benign cerebral epidermoid cysts. A case of presumed malignant transformation in a lateral ventricular epidermoid cyst is described, in which squamous cell carcinoma arose 33 years after the surgical resection of a benign epidermoid cyst. Three years after diagnosis of malignancy, the patient remains functional with a slowly invasive tumor. This case provides a rare description of the natural history of forebrain squamous cell carcinoma, which would appear to be a more indolent tumor than previously realized.
