ABSTRACT

Head and neck sarcoma are very rare malignant tumors which can occur on any different ENT localization. The authors report tree different variety of ENT sarcoma diagnosed and treated at the oto-rhino-laryngological department of military hospital of Tunis. We intend to remind of clinical and histological particularities, therapeutic modalities and finally to evaluate the follow-up. From 2001 to 2007, three cases of head and neck sarcomas were diagnosted in ENT department of military hospital of Tunis. the study concerned a women [22 years old] and two men 36 and 76 years old. It deals with an orbital rhabdomyosarcoma, a carcinosarcoma of submandibular gland and a maxillary chondrosarcoma. In each case, diagnosis was validated by the immunohistochemistry. All patients had surgical removal of their tumor. External irradiation or/and chemotherapy was also indicated for all cases. ENT sarcomas are aggressive neoplasm. Long-term survival is bad with high potentialities of local recurrence and distant metastases
