Post radiation myofibrosarcoma of hypopharynx
Malignant tumours of myofibroblasts are rare lesions. Post radiation sarcoma is a rare potential late sequel of ionizing radiation. We present the first case of myofibrosarcoma of the hypopharynx in a 67-year-old man, occurring 16 years after radiotherapy for laryngeal carcinoma.
متن کاملRadiation Induced Sarcoma of Hypopharynx: A Case Report
Radiation-induced sarcoma in the head and neck is a long term rare complication of radiation therapy. The incidence of these sarcomas is, however, likely to increase due to progressive aging of the population combined with improved survival in head and neck cancer patients resulting from better treatment regimes. Diagnosis and management of this problem can be extremely challenging and the over...
متن کاملTumours of the hypopharynx
The definition of these sites is shown in Table 13.1. The larynx projects into the hypopharynx from the front so that grooves, known as the pyriform fossae, are formed on either side. These are shallow above and are separated from the valleculae by the pharyngoepiglottic folds. Lower down, the pyriform fossae become deeper. The upper shallow part of the pyriform fossa is bounded laterally by th...
متن کاملPost-Newtonian Gravitational Radiation
Let us declare that the most important devoir of any physical theory is to draw firm predictions for the outcome of laboratory experiments and astronomical observations. Unfortunately, the devoir is quite difficult to fulfill in the case of general relativity, essentially because of the complexity of the Einstein field equations, to which only few exact solutions are known. For instance, it is ...
متن کاملAngiofibroma of the hypopharynx.
Primary extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma is very rare. To date, approximately 60 cases have been reported in the English literature. Only 1 case was confined to the posterior wall of hypopharynx. In August 2000, a 68-year-old man presented with a 6-month history of progressive foreign-body sensation in the throat and intermittent inspiratory stridor. Endoscopic examination of the larynx and pha...
