A cervical tumoration is a frequent symptom presented by patients of different ages.
Objective:
Analyse the clinical, diagnostical and treatment aspects of patients affected by cervical tumoration.
Method:
Retrospective study of a serie of cases during 10 years.
Results:
A total of 182 patients, affected by cervical tumoration, were analysed. The 60% were men and the 40% women with 45 years average. The benign pathology more frequent was the branchial cyst and the malign were the metastasis of epidermoide carcinoma. The diagnostic and therapeutic procedures utilized are analysed.
Conclusions:
An anamnesis and a minoutious exploration diminish in great measure the diagnostic possibilities. The TAC and the PAAF are diagnostic methods of great value in the study of a cervical tumoration and facilitate an adequate scheme of treatment, that is essential for a good prognosis.
