Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma with sebaceous differentiation.
A case of supraglottic laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma with sebaceous differentiation in a 68-year-old Caucasian male is described. A right cervical lymph node metastasis, excised during the laryngectomy operation, consisted exclusively of squamous cells. Despite intensive post-operative chemotherapy, the patient developed metastatic foci in the left cervical area and left pulmonary hilus and died seven months later. This is the second case report of a laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma with sebaceous differentiation in the literature.
