Exploring The Uncharted: A Case Series Of Rare Head And Neck Soft Tissue Neoplasm

Abstract :

Background:Head and neck sarcomas are a rare group of malignancies that pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and mimic carcinomas. In this case series, we present seven unique cases of head and neck soft tissue tumours, highlighting the diverse anatomical locations and clinical features encountered. The cases include fibromatosis of the maxilla, fibromatosis of the right Masseter muscle, tonsillar myofibroblastic tumour, spindle cell neoplasm of the tongue, Rhabdomyosarcoma nose, Leiomyosarcoma and synovial sarcomas of the larynx. Through this series, we aim to contribute to the limited existing literature on these uncommon tumours and provide insights into their management strategies and potential causes of recurrence in head and neck soft tissue tumours.Materials and Methods:This case series aims to present and discuss seven cases of rare head and neck sarcomas. The study design involves retrospective analysis of medical records, radiological imaging, and histopathological reports of the included cases. Ethical approval was obtained from the relevant institutional review board.Case Selection:The cases included in this series were identified from the institutional database of head and neck sarcomas. A thorough review of the available medical records and imaging studies was performed to select cases that met the inclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria :Patients diagnosed with head and neck soft tissue tumours confirmed by IHCAll operable cases were includedExclusion criteria :All cases whose final biopsy and IHC didnt suggest soft tissue neoplam were excluded All patient who didnt give consent were excludedConclusion:The materials and methods of this case series involved the retrospective analysis of medical records, imaging studies, and histopathological reports to present and discuss seven cases of rare head and neck sarcomas of which three had recurrence. The data collected provided insights into the clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluations, treatment modalities ,reason for recurrence and long-term outcomes of these sarcomas. The findings contribute to the existing knowledge on the management of these rare head and neck sarcomas and provide a basis for further research and investigation.
