Laryngeal Squamous Cell Cancer

AbstractBackground:Acute respiratory decompensation can occur on a background of slowly progressive airway compromise, for example in laryngeal squamous cell cancer. Surgeons in ENT, together with anaesthetists, are often asked to evaluate airway risk and as yet there is no widely adopted standardised approach.Case report:This paper reports the case of an 82-year-old male, who presented with acute airway compromise due to both endolaryngeal obstruction from a squamous cell cancer and extralaryngeal compression from massive subcutaneous emphysema.Results:Primary total laryngectomy was performed, but the patient declined adjuvant radiotherapy. He died a year later from a heart attack without evidence of recurrence.Conclusion:To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of acute airway compromise from extralaryngeal subcutaneous emphysema secondary to laryngeal cancer. Options for acute airway management are discussed.

AbstractMedulloblastoma is a rare adult primary brain tumor and its presence in the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) constitutes an even rarer site for origin. There are only 40 reported cases of CPA medulloblastoma in the literature, with most being intra-axial and occurring in the pediatric population. Extra-axial CPA medulloblastoma in adults are extremely rare and only 10 adult cases have been reported in world literature.We report a rare case of primary extra-axial CPA medulloblastoma occurring in an adult. We review the literature for such an unusual presentation of medulloblastoma in adults and discuss its appropriate clinico-radiological features along with its possible pathogenesis and surgical management.With increasing reporting of such tumors, CPA region, medulloblastoma should be considered a differential diagnosis of intra-axial or extra-axial CPA tumor, as their further management and prognosis differ significantly. Adjuvant radiotherapy and combined chemotherapy regimen should be added to the postoperative management.
