We report a very rare case of combined small cell lung carcinoma (C-SCLC) which presented as persistent cough and was due to endotracheal metastases. Clinicians should be aware of this unusual site of metastases from a C-SCLC.

Tracheal obstruction can arise from multiple conditions, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, foreign bodies, tumors, and acute heart failure. We report a case of a 43-year-old man with cervical liposarcoma who, following surgical excision, chemotherapy, and radiation, presented with severe dyspnea and was admitted to our hospital. A CT scan detected an endotracheal mass causing significant obstruction, suspected to be malignant.

Early diagnosis is very important and can improve survival but it is usually difficult due to a lack of symptomatology. We present the first case of a 39-year-old East European woman with oral amelanotic melanoma, who underwent surgery and adjuvant immunotherapy; however, after six months, she developed local recurrence.

Background: The clinical feature, treatment and outcomes of the patients with endotracheal cancer after radical surgery for primary lung cancer are unclear. This article will provide a detailed explanation of the above issues by summarizing the relevant cases.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed five patients in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital and retrieved 9 cases from other literatures by searching PubMed.

Article Synopsis
- Osteosarcoma causes significant lung metastasis, leading to a low 5-year survival rate (20-30%), thus necessitating a reliable mouse model for research on better treatment options.
- The study establishes a straightforward endotracheal injection technique to implant tumors in the lungs of mice, confirming proper placement with crystal violet dye and injecting osteosarcoma cells for tumor growth.
- Results show a 100% success rate in dye injection and a 75% success in tumor detection in the lungs five weeks post-injection, indicating the method’s effectiveness for studying lung-metastatic osteosarcoma.
