Small cell carcinoma usually occurs in lung, but extrapulmonary small cell carcinomas can occur in any sites of body. Most sites of extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma reported were esophagus. And small cell carcinomas occurred in head and neck area were reported rarely. Extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma could be diagnosed when there is no evidence of primary lung lesion on chest X-ray, CT scan of chest and bronchoscopy. The authors experienced a case of small cell carcinoma of left submandibular lymph node in 64-year-old male patient. Biopsy specimen showed poorly differentiated carcinoma but immunohistochemical study showed small cell carcinoma. The chest X-ray and CT scan of chest showed no evidence of primary lung lesion. The patient received chemotherapy(etoposide plus cisplatin) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy using weekly taxol which resulted in good clinical remission. He is still alive 8 months after diagnosis without evidence of lung disease. We report our case with a brief review of literatures.
