Sažetak

Lung adenocarcinoma accounts for about 40% of all lung cancers and is characterized by distinct cellular and molecular features. Distant metastases from primary lung cancer are frequent, howev-
er metastasis of the tongue is quite rare and unexpected. If there is existing evidence of metastasis in tongue, primary tumor is most probably generally disseminated and prognosis is poor. Such patients require a complete staging workup to evaluate the extent of disease, because tumor stage plays a major role in determining the choice of treatment. In this case report we want to present an unusual case of simultaneous lung and base of the tongue adenocarcinoma and discuss the possible patterns of disease development.
