Summary
This study reports two rare cases of cervical and para-pharyngeal bone tumors in men. Diagnosis of vertebral bone tumors should be considered in patients with cervical masses and vertebral lysis.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Neurosurgery
- Pathology
Background:
- Cervical and para-pharyngeal bone tumors are uncommon.
- Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for patient outcomes.
Observation:
- Two male patients, aged 29 and 67, presented with cervical and para-pharyngeal masses.
- Clinical, radiological, and pathological features of the tumors were retrospectively analyzed.
Findings:
- Biopsies revealed a vertebral aneurismal cyst and a corporeo-pedicular chordoma.
- Both tumors were surgically approached via a cervical route.
Implications:
- Vertebral bone tumors presenting with cervical symptoms are rare.
- Consider vertebral bone tumors in differential diagnosis for cervical/para-pharyngeal masses with vertebral lysis.
