Head and neck sarcomas are rare and histologically diverse malignancies, which represents a diagnostic challenge for radiologists because they have many overlapping imaging features. They account for less than 1% of all malignant tumors in the body. People of all ages can be affected, regardless of gender. Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common histological form, especially in children. Due to the risk of metastasis, extension is absolutely necessary.
Their treatment requires the intervention of a multidisciplinary team in specialized units to improve prognosis.
The aim of our work is to review, through our series, the contribution of imaging resources in the diagnostic approach of tumor nature, to establish the "baseline" workup and post-therapeutic follow-up, as well as to analyze the epidemiology, clinical and histological characteristics of head and neck sarcomas.
