ABSTRACT

RESUMEN A nivel mundial se estiman que cada año se diagnostican aproximadamente 650 000 nuevos casos de cáncer escamoso de cabeza y cuello. Ocasionan 300 000 muertes y dos tercios de estos casos se originan en países en vías de desarrollo. Se presentó un caso de un paciente atendido en consulta a causa de crecimiento acelerado de la región frontotemporoparietal derecha, acompañado de sintomatología neurológica correspondiente a una afección funcional de los lóbulos parietal y temporal derecho. Se le realizó exámenes imagenológicos y biopsia por punción de la lesión, lo que arrojó un carcinoma escamoso como variedad histológica de la tumoración (AU).


ABSTRACT It is thought that around 650 000 new cases of head and neck squamous tumors are diagnosed in the world every year. They cause 300 000 deaths and two thirds of these cases are originated in developing countries. We presented the case of a patient who assisted the consultation due to the fast growth of the right frontotemporal parietal region, accompanied with neurological symptomatology corresponding to a functional disorder of the right parietal and temporal lobes. Imaging studies and a biopsy by lesion puncture were performed. It showed a squamous carcinoma as histological variant of the tumor (AU).
