Summary: | A neck mass is a commonly observed clinical finding across all age groups. Neck masses are wide ranging from congenital, and inflammatory to neoplastic lesions. Ultrasound (US) is a convenient and applicable imaging modality for the evaluation of a neck mass in clinical practice. Although US is influenced by the operator’s experience and is not an ideal approach to detect deep structures, it can examine the structure from various angles in real- time and guide tissue sampling while simultaneously explaining about the same to patients. Therefore, US is useful for evaluating all neck masses, involving the lymph nodes, thyroid, parathyroid, and salivary glands. This article aimed to review miscellaneous neck masses and their ultrasonographic features. KCI Citation Count: 0 |
