Gastric cancer rarely metastasized to the tonsil. Only 1 instance of tonsillar metastasis by a gastric cancer was found in the literature.<BR>In this paper, it was emphasized that a tonsillar malignant tumor may represent the so-called latent primary carcinoma.<BR>A 67-year-old man with a mass at the upper pole of the left palatine tonsil visited our department on April 11. 1980. By histological examination, metastatic carcinoma from a digestive system was suspected. Radiographic and ultrasonic examination revealed gastric cancer in the lower part. Distal partial gastrectomy and chemotherapy were performed, but he died 3 months after the operation.
