    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Oncology
    • Immunology
    • Head and Neck Surgery

    Context:

    • Childhood immunological maturation influences lymphatic organ enlargement.
    • Space-occupying lesions in neck triangles require careful differentiation.
    • Malignant diseases are more frequently observed in the posterior neck triangle.

    Purpose:

    • To discuss the occurrence and characteristics of enlarged lymphatic organs in children.
    • To differentiate space-occupying lesions in anterior and posterior neck triangles.
    • To analyze the prevalence of various pediatric neck tumors.

    Summary:

    • Malignant diseases account for 15% of pediatric lymph node swelling.
    • Common pediatric neck tumors include thyroglossal cysts (26.2%), branchiogenic cysts (23.2%), and lymphangioma (10.2%).

  • Other significant findings include nonspecific lymphadenopathy (9.8%), tuberculous lymphadenitis (6.7%), neural tumors (4.1%), thyroid tumors (4.1%), and lymphoma/Hodgkin's disease (7%).

    • Impact:

    • Provides crucial differential diagnosis information for generalized lymphadenopathy in children.
    • Highlights the importance of anatomical location in predicting malignancy risk.
    • Informs prognosis and therapeutic strategies for pediatric neck masses.
