“…Other causes of both cervical lymphadenopathy and dysphagia, like lymphoma, high esophageal cancer or other head and neck cancers, can considered in the differential diagnosis. In the literature, there are a few cases of hyoid bone metastasis from distal malignant tumors, such as breast cancer, renal cell carcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, melanoma and hepatocellular carcinoma [2][3][4][5][6]. Lung adenocarcinoma is more prone to vascular invasion and distant metastasis than squamous carcinoma [5].…”

(1) Background: Secondary tumors of the hyoid bone are extremely rare in clinics. In the literature, there is only one study about hyoid bone metastases from sigmoid adenocarcinoma. (2) Methods: We report a case of hyoid bone metastases in a 78-year-old patient treated for rectum and sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma. (3) Results: A mass excision surgery of a rounded osteolytic mass of 4.5 × 3.6 cm in size in the central part of the hyoid bone was performed under general anesthesia, according to the multidisciplinary tumor board recommendation. (4) Conclusions: Hyoid bone metastases can occur in the rectum and sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma. A total body bone scintigraphy and CT examination are suggested to detect silent bone metastases in patients with a history of cancer and neck masses. The prognosis is good, but a regular follow-up is recommended.

“…In the literature, there are few cases of hyoid bone metastasis from distal primary malignant tumors, such as renal cell carcinoma, breast cancer and liver carcinoma [2][3][4]. Hyoid bone metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma [5], melanoma [6] and sigmoid adenocarcinoma [7] are also reported in the literature but are exceedingly rare.…”

“…9 In addition, some rare hyoid masses transferred from distant primary tumors have been reported, such as hyoid bone metastases from breast cancer, renal cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and colon cancer. [1][2][3][4] However, considering that hyoid metastases from lung adenocarcinoma are rare and have not been reported, it is reasonable to suspect that there is no clear relationship between hyoid masses and lung adenocarcinoma.…”

“…Only a few studies have reported the cases of hyoid bone metastasis from distal primary malignant tumors, such as breast cancer, renal cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and sigmoid adenocarcinoma. [1][2][3][4] Although bone metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma has been reported in detail, 5 this study reports for the first time bone metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma. A 68-yearold male patient, having hyoid bone metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma with the only symptom of neck pain exacerbated by swallowing, underwent hyoid mass resection surgery after thorough examination and assessment of his physical status.…”

Objective: Hyoid bone metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma is exceedingly rare. This study aims to provide an experience to clinicians in the differential diagnosis of hyoid tumors and discusses its possible source. Methods and Results: We report a 68-year-old male patient having hyoid bone metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma. The initial symptom of the hyoid bone metastasis was neck pain exacerbated by swallowing. The hyoid bone mass was resected based on comprehensive analysis including whole-body bone imaging and pathologic analysis of the hyoid bone mass. The adenocarcinoma of hyoid was identified as a metastatic lesion of lung adenocarcinoma. The patient recovered well and the anterior cervical pain was significantly alleviated after surgery and the patient underwent corresponding chemotherapy. Conclusion: In patients with hyoid metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma, surgical resection may reduce the pain in anterior cervical after full consideration of physical condition.

Only a few cases of the hyoid bone metastasis from distant primary malignancies, such as renal cell carcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma, had been reported to date (2). Similarly, metastases to the thyroid cartilage were occasionally described in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and lung adenocarcinoma (3,4).…”

Background:Secondary tumours of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage are extremely rare. In this paper, we present a case of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage metastases in a patient treated for sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma.Case Report:Four years after sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma was diagnosed and treated with surgery and chemotherapy, the patient developed bone metastases in the left sacroiliac joint and right proximal humerus. Although the patient did not complain of any related symptoms, in a bone scintigraphy the accumulation of Technetium-99m was incidentally detected in the two sites of the anterior neck. On ultrasound examination there were two hyperechoic and heterogeneous masses with calcifications placed in front of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage. Computerized tomography demonstrated massive hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage destruction.Conclusion:In patients with progressive sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma, destruction of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage could be suspected for metastases.
