Abstract:
Diagnosing a soft tissue tumor in the head and neck region can be challenging due to its complex anatomy and diverse histological spectrum. This case report highlights the case of a woman who presented with a painless neck lump in the posterior triangle of the neck. Various pathological and imaging studies were suggestive of pleomorphic adenoma, which arises from the left prevertebral space. The patient underwent complete surgical excision via the transcervical approach. Pleomorphic adenoma in the posterior triangle of the neck is extremely rare and causes a diagnostic dilemma in managing soft tissue tumors of the neck.
摘要:
诊断头部和颈部区域的软组织肿瘤可能由于其复杂的解剖结构和多样的组织学谱而具有挑战性。此病例报告重点介绍了一名妇女的病例,该妇女在颈部后三角形出现无痛的颈部肿块。各种病理和影像学检查提示多形性腺瘤,它来自左侧椎前空间。患者通过经宫颈入路进行了完整的手术切除。颈部后三角形的多形性腺瘤极为罕见,在处理颈部软组织肿瘤时面临诊断困境。
