Résumé |
Patients with head and neck cancers are susceptible to emergencies related to tumor infiltration, systemic disorders, or treatment. Computed tomography plays a major role in imaging assessment and MRI provides further characterization. Hematologic disorders may lead to hemorrhage, thrombosis, or ischemia. Patients are susceptible to metabolic derangements that are often not recognized. Complications in the neck are threatening due to compromise of vascular structures and airway.
