ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Metastatic carcinoma of the palatine tonsil is rare, with only 92 cases reported in the world literature. We report a case of tonsillar metastasis from the colon. This is an unusual case not only because it is the first case report of tonsillar metastasis from this site but also because the tonsillar secondary is the first sign of the primary disease.
