ABSTRACT

Head and neck malignant neoplasms represent 10.1% of global cancer morbidity and 7.7 of global cancer mortality. The anatomy of the neck it’s complex and have certain important considerations: multiple organs and tissues that can develop epithelial, mesenchymal, hematologic, germinal and neuro-endocrine. Explaining why it’s of vital importance to know differential diagnosis, the suggestions and considerations to approach cervical mass in adults look to diminish delays in diagnosis and treatment, have repercussions in survival. The clinicians should identify patients with increased risk for malignancy, suspicious symptoms and signs, refer to the proper imaging studies, as the biopsy’s results and indications, to conclude the diagnostic approach.
