Male, 80 years old, history of glottic larynx cancer. No mass effect, focal edema or suspicious enhancement is seen to suggest brain parenchymal metastatic disease. The bones of the calvarium and skull base are intact. Tumor seen previously at the level of the glottis is substantially decreased in size. The glottis remains deformed and irregular with some hyperenhancement relative to surrounding tissues. The aryepiglottic folds remain thickened, right side more than left. However, the components of tumor which previously extended through the bilateral thyroid cartilage are no longer clearly identified. Where the thyroid cartilage was previously eroded, sclerotic bony material has developed to fill the defects. Given the significant interval changes in this area, an accurate measurement of tumor cannot be made.There is infiltration of the fascial planes bilaterally. The base of tongue tonsils and submandibular glands are hyperemic, also likely related to therapy. No new mucosal lesions are suspected.No pathologic adenopathy is detected in the neck by size criteria. The salivary glands and thyroid are free of focal lesions. The cervical vessels remain patent. A tracheostomy is in place. Emphysema is demonstrated in the lung apices. Extensive degenerative disease is redemonstrated in the cervical spine, but there are no worrisome osseous lesions.
1. Substantial interval decrease in the size of the previously demonstrated glottic tumor. Irregularity and hyperenhancement of the glottic mucosa could represent some residual tumor or treatment related effects. Previous erosive destruction of the thyroid cartilage has healed in with sclerotic bone. Given these extensive interval changes, the tumor is no longer reliably measurable.2. No evidence of pathologic adenopathy in the neck.3. No evidence of intracranial metastatic disease.
