Özet

Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is one of the most frequent malignancies in the head and neck region. The risk of multiple malignancies is reported as 2-11 per cent and most of the second primaries are SCCs. Lymphogenic tumours as second primaries are extremely rare. In this paper, we report a case of laryngeal SCC with synchronous non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and review the literature on the clinical and histopathological aspects of these malignancies. © 2005 JLO (1984) Limited.
