A hard left supraclavicular mass in a young boy— is it cancer?

@#A 12-year-old boy was referred to our ENT clinic with an incidentally discovered left supraclavicular mass that was suspected to be malignant. He was asymptomatic and had no prior illnesses. Neck examination found a fixed, hard, non-pulsatile, and non-tender mass measuring 2 cm in diameter in the left supraclavicular fossa. Rest of the ENT assessment, chest and upper limb neurovascular examinations were unremarkable. The patient’s full blood count was within the normal range.

Symptomatic oral squamous papilloma of the uvula – a rare incidental finding

@#Oral squamous papillomas are benign neoplasms of the oral cavity that occur commonly on the palate. Albeit benign and often asymptomatic, they may still cause concern due to their appearance, which may mimic other malignant oral pathologies. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is usually implicated in papilloma pathogenesis. We present a rare case of symptomatic oral squamous papilloma arising from the uvula and causing tongue and throat irritation. This benign lesion was excised with electrocautery.
