Abstract:
Cutaneous metastases from carcinoma of the larynx are very rare. We observed a 64-year-old Japanese patient with squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx who developed a subcutaneous nodule on the abdomen. It was found to be a metastatic tumour from the laryngeal cancer, histopathologically as well as histochemically.

Metastasis
Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original site to distant locations in the body. Cancer cells can spread via blood vessels (hematogenous) as well as lymph vessels in the body.
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
