After resection of the tonsil he was given irradiation. Although the metastatic tonsil tumor disappeared he died after 22 months.<BR>Case 2 was a 61-year-old man who had been admitted with left gingival tumor. Chest roentgenogram showed a mass in the left hilum. He was given a diagnosis of large cell carcinoma of lung with gingival metastasis. After 30-Gy irradiation the gingival tumor disappeared. Because the primary lesion progressed he died after 4 months.<BR>Case 3 was a 40-year-old man, admitted with a mass in the right upper lobe, in whom transbronchial biopsy revealed large cell carcinoma. One month later, a gingival tumor appeared and biopsy revealed it to be a metastatic tumor. After 60-Gy irradiation the gingival tumor disappeared. However liver and adrenal metastasis developed in the patient and he died after 4 months.
