Amyloidomas of the head and neck region are uncommon and generally considered a benign localized form of amyloidosis. Here, we describe "the unusual case of a young man" with a nasopharyngeal mass and osteolytic lesions caused by systemic light-chain amyloidosis treated successfully with a combined surgical and chemotherapy approach.

Although pleomorphic adenomas of the salivary glands are benign tumors, they can metastasize to distant organs without evidence of malignant transformation. We describe FDG PET/CT finding in a case of metastasizing pleomorphic adenoma in the right ilium occurring 22 years after initial surgical resection of a lip pleomorphic adenoma. On FDG PET/CT, the iliac metastasis appeared as an expansile osteolytic lesion with heterogeneous activity.
