ENT malignancies. What the GP needs to know
1St Vincent's Hospital, Peter MacCallum Cancer Institute, Melbourne.
Background:
The head and neck are sites that are accessible to examination, therefore early detection of cancers in these sites should be simple.
Objective:
This article discusses the commoner malignant tumours encountered in the various head and neck subsites. It gives an overview of the types of tumours that occur and the presenting features which allow us to distinguish them from benign disorders and facilitate much earlier diagnosis. Recent advances in diagnostic imaging and treatment are discussed.
Discussion:
Improved outcomes for patients with head and neck cancers will occur with earlier detection and community education about risk factors.
