Histological patterns of head and neck tumors: An insight to tumor histology

Abstract: This article emphasizes the basis for origin and importance of tumor patterns in diagnosis of oral and maxillofacial tumors. In this article, histological patterns and subpatterns of head and neck tumors are enlisted. Although, undifferentiated tumors remain a challenge to the histopathologist, by describing the histological patterns and the subpatterns of the tumors, an attempt has been made for the diagnosis of the tumors and subsequently for implementation of precise treatment plan for the same.

“…7D for a quantitation). These whorls are found in HPV lesions ( 94 ), and HPV-positive ano-genital cancers and head and neck cancers ( 95 , 96 ). In addition to the increased number of whorls in the S23A cells, we also observed several patches where the epithelial layer invades into the stromal collagen plug ( Fig.…”

“…As head and neck lesions, most of these lesions happened in the nose followed by oral cavity and scalp, constituting 29.7%, 23.4%, and 14.1%, respectively. Oral and maxillofacial sites are the most frequent sites for head and neck lesions, as widely reported [ 9 ].…”

“…The great majority of HNC originate from the squamous cells lining the mucosal epithelium in head and neck sites, being collectively named head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC). The head and neck anatomical sites more frequently affected by the development of HNSCC are the oral cavity, pharynx, and larynx [ 3 , 4 ]. Together, these three anatomical sites congregate the vast majority of HNSCC cases and the major number of deaths, as previously estimated [ 1 , 5 ] and summarized in Table 1 .…”
