    Two cases of granular cell tumors of the head and neck at different sites
    (Medquest Communications LLC, 2014) Paksoy, Mustafa; Eken, Mehmet; Ayduran, Emin; Altın, Gökhan
    Granular cell tumor (GCT) is an uncommon, primarily benign lesion. We describe 2 cases of GCT. Patient 1 was a 38-year-old man who presented with a reddish, vegetative lesion that involved the posterior third of the left true vocal fold. Patient 2 was an 18-year-old girl who presented with a firm, slightly extruded submucosal mass in the posterior lateral third of the tongue. Both lesions were identified as GCTs on biopsy. Both tumors were removed surgically, and both patients exhibited no signs of recurrence during follow-up. It is important that otolaryngologists be familiar with GCT and its management. Although the length of follow-up has varied substantially in the literature, we recommend long-term surveillance, including regular clinical examinations and periodic imaging with contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, at least until additional studies have clarified the natural history and recurrence patterns of GCT with greater certainty.

    Unusual reason of a neck mass: Secondary hydatid cyst
    (2013) Aydın, Sedat; Erdoğan Atalay, Banu; Eken, Mehmet; Keser Hallaç, Sevinç; Altıntoprak, Niyazi
    Hydatic cyct is a common parasitic infestation caused by the parasite Echinococcus granulosus. It may affect any organ and tissue in the body, in particular the liver and lung. Hydatid cyst in the head and neck region is very rare, even in countries where echinococcus infestation is endemic. We report the case of a 52-year-old female patient presenting with a hydatid cyst in supraclavicular region with hepatic involvement. The definitive therapy comprised excision of the cystic mass and postoperative medical treatment.
