Para-pharyngeal space (PPS) tumors include an heterogeneous group of neoplasms,
accounting for approximatively 0.5–1.5% of all head and neck tumors. Management of these …

Objectives: Identify the indications for fine-needle aspiration. Describe the technique in
regards to effectively performing fine-needle aspiration. Review the appropriate evaluation …

Objectives/Hypothesis The routine practices of examining submucosal lesions are not
suitable for deep lesions. Therefore, we evaluated the efficacy of non‐real‐time image …

Masses in the parapharyngeal area are rare and often due to infectious phenomena arising
from the oral cavity or pharynx which lead to abscess formation. Less frequently, the lesion …

The parapharyngeal space is a pyramidshaped space located between the base of the skull
and the hyoid bone, lateral to the naso-oropharynx and medial to the jaw [1, 2]. It contains …

Deep head and neck space lesions can present a number of diagnostic challenges due to
their deep anatomical position and difficult access for diagnostic tissue sampling. We …

Objective This study aims to describe and analyze the transoral and transnasal approaches
for pathologies of the ventral atlas and axis vertebrae, which are considered technically …

The advent of image-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) and later the use of core-needle
biopsy (CNB) has revolutionised the diagnosis and management of neck and salivary gland …

Objective: Nearly half of parapharyngeal space (PPS) tumors present as an intraoral mass,
which is diagnostically challenging. In this study, we studied whether preoperative growth …
