Abstract (english)
In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma distant metastases are rare and metastases to the heart are extremely rare. In this report we present a patient with a sublingual and laryngeal carcinoma with metastases to lung and heart. Cardiac metastases present with non-specific symptoms that depends on the size and location of the metastases. The ideal tools for diagnosing cardiac metastases are echocardiography and cardiac MRI. CT scan could be used as a screening method of distant metastases in head and neck cancer. The treatment of cardiac metastases is generally ineffective.
Abstract (croatian)
Planocelularni karcinomi glave i vrata rijetko udaljeno metastaziraju, a iznimno rijetko metastaziraju u srce. U ovom članku opisujemo bolesnika sa sublingvalnim i laringealnim karcinomom koji je metastazirao u pluća i srce. Srčane metastaze daju nespecifične simptome, koji ovise o mjestu i veličini metastaza. Ultrazvuk i MRI srca najbolje su dijagnostičke metode za otkrivanje srčanih metastaza. CT toraksa bi se mogao koristiti kao metoda probira za udaljene metastaze karcinoma glave i vrata. Liječenje srčanih metastaza u pravilu nije uspješno i svodi sa na palijativnu terapiju.
