Abstract Primary laryngeal carcinomas comprise approximately 2% to 5% of all malignancies worldwide. Of these laryngeal carcinomas, approximately 99% are primary squamous cell carcinomas. During the past 30 years, about 160 cases of primary small cell carcinoma of the larynx have been reported. Combined primary squamous and small cell carcinoma of the larynx, the so-called composite tumor of the larynx, is even more rare, with only 13 published cases to date. Although the major risk factors for developing these composite tumors of the larynx are thought to be similar to other more common neoplasms of the larynx, such as squamous cell carcinoma, the treatment and prognosis are different. We report an additional case of combined small cell carcinoma of the larynx and discuss the histogenesis of this unusual neoplasm.

Small cell carcinoma of the gall bladder is a rare tumor. The neoplasm is highly lethal, metastasizes early, and may cause death shortly after diagnosis. An oat cell carcinoma of the gallbladder metastatic to the liver and adjacent lymph nodes is described in a 60-year-old male. Partial cholecystectomy was performed followed by aggressive chemotherapy with etoposide and cisplatinum. An 80 % reduction in the size of the unexcised tumor was noted over a period of 6 months. The partial response and the relatively long survival of the patient suggest the use of the above protocol for these rare cases.
