Résumé |
The timely diagnosis of malignant cervical masses in children necessitates a high level of suspicion. The care of children with malignant cervical masses requires a multidisciplinary approach. Staging systems provide a basis for counseling, risk stratification, and treatment planning for children with cervical malignancies. Recent advances in molecular genetics, tumor biology, and treatment strategies are changing the management of head and neck malignancies in children.
