Current update on the diagnosis and management of head and neck hard tissue sarcomas

Head and neck hard tissue sarcomas form a rare group of mesenchymal-derived tumours that comprise less than 1% of all head and neck neoplasms. Hard tissue sarcomas account for 20% of head and neck sarcomas and they form a heterogeneous group with a diverse origin. Unlike head and neck soft-tissue sarcomas, they have lower recurrence and mortality rates. In this study, we review the current management of head and neck hard tissue sarcomas.
