Malignus nyelvtumor előfordulása gyermekkorban meglehetősen ritka entitásnak számít. A nyelven előforduló különböző elváltozások differenciáldiagnosztikája során ebben a korcsoportban gyakran fel sem merül mint potenciális lehetőség. Így az adekvát kezelés és sebészi megoldás csak jelentős késéssel történik meg, ami a beteg sorsát megpecsételheti. A szerzők egy 15 éves gyereknél kialakult nyelvkarcinóma esetét ismertetik, valamint ennek kapcsán rövid irodalmi áttekintést adnak, hogy felhívják a figyelmet a gyermekkori malignus nyelvtumor diagnosztikájának fontosságára.

<p class="AbstractContent">We report a rare case of primary tongue cancer that showed unusual clinical, histological and immunohistological features. The patient was a 73-year-old man who presented with a submucosal tumor in the left side of tongue. Treatment consisted of preoperative chemotherapy, hemiglossectomy, unilateral neck dissection and postoperative chemo-radiotherapy. The tumor locates in the submucosa, independently of the overlying tongue epithelium and the salivary gland. The tumor showed infiltrating growth, arranged in cord or trabecular nests without keratinization or distinct duct formation. The tumor cells were positive for pan-keratin, cytokeratin 7 (CK7) and p63, but negative for other specific markers. Since this tumor did not match any of the defined entity, we diagnosed this lesion as carcinoma, not otherwise specified of the tongue.</p>

Electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXA) are found to be very useful tools for identification of etiologic agents in pneumoconiosis or interstitial pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and granulomatosis are frequently associated with occupational and environmental pollution. Numerous reports of pneumoconiosis in various occupations such as coal and gold miners are presented in the literature. However, there is no known documented case of pulmonary changes in workers in the sandpaper industry. This study reports a rare case of pulmonary granulomatosis containing deposits from abrasives of sandpaper diagnosed by using EDXA.
