Article Title: Subglottic Basal Cell Adenocarcinoma
Abstract: OBJECTIVES: To discuss the presentation and management of a rare neoplasm in a previously unreported laryngeal subsite. METHODS: Case report and literature review. RESULTS: An 89-year-old woman presented with a subglottic mass, biopsy of which was consistent with basal cell adenocarcinoma. She was successfully treated with surgical intervention and remains disease free 29 months postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: Basal cell adenocarcinoma is a rare salivary gland tumor, the laryngeal variant of which is even scarcer. Herein we describe the presentation and successful surgical management of the first reported case of subglottic basal cell adenocarcinoma. We additionally provide a histologic review followed by approaches to treatment.
