Abstract EN
A 56-year-old female with a background of metastatic rectal adenocarcinoma presented with a subglottic mass causing biphasic stridor.
Transoral laser microsurgery and the use of fibrin glue prevented the need for tracheostomy.
Six months postoperatively there was no evidence of recurrence.
Laryngeal metastasis of colorectal adenocarcinoma, although remarkably rare, is perhaps more prevalent than commonly perceived and the presence of laryngeal symptoms in a patient with colorectal adenocarcinoma should raise concern.
This case is presented to aid physicians should they encounter a similar presentation of metastasis to the subglottis.
