Submucosal small-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the larynx detected using F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography: A case report and review of the literature.

A 67-year-old male presented with a metastatic carcinoma in the right side of the neck from an unknown primary site. F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed increased F-FDG uptake in the right larynx and right neck lymph nodes. A smooth lesion was identified in the submucosa of the right supraglottic region via a suspension laryngoscopy under general anaesthesia.

Clinical features and hypoxic marker expression of primary sinonasal and laryngeal small-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma: a small case series.

Background: Small-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (SCNEC) of the head and neck is rare. The prognosis of SCNEC in the nasal cavity and larynx is poor. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinicopathological features of nasal and laryngeal SCNEC and to determine the expression of HIF-1α, GLUT-1, PI3K, and p-Akt in SCNEC.
