Introduction: Neck masses can be of diverse etiology and origin and usually pose a diagnostic challenge to treating surgeon or physician. A patient with neck mass almost always is referred for imaging; a very close and compact arrangement of vital structures, coupled with complex deposition of deep cervical fascia (DCF) makes neck imaging difficult even for general radiologist. Ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can all be used in non invasive

“…This is similar to the results of Owotade et al, 15 and suggests the progressive involvement of salivary gland tissue by the HIV infection. It is also possible that patients in developed countries, such as those in Shugar et al's study, 14 tend to present at an earlier stage of the disease, whereas patients in developing countries, such as those in Owotade et al's study, 15 are inclined to present at a later stage.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine sonographically, in parotid glands of human immunodeficiency virus-positive patients, the condition of glands with or without enlargement, and propose a classification system for the patterns observed using diagnostic ultrasound imaging. Methods: In this prospective clinical study, ultrasound scans were performed on 200 patients aged 4-62 years at Mulago Hospital, Uganda. Results: There were four main distinct ultrasound pathological patterns in the parotids, i.e. lymphocytic aggregations (LAs), lymphoepithelial cysts (LECs), fatty infiltration (FI) and lymphadenopathy only. There were additional subdivisions depending on the presence of echogenic foci and intraparotid lymphadenopathy. Of those patients (n 5 64) without parotid enlargement, only 8% showed normal ultrasound features, whereas 34% showed LECs and 31% showed LAs. Of those (n 5 136) with parotid enlargement, 46% showed LECs, 23% showed FI and 15% showed LAs. The overall prevalence of LECs in the study sample was 42%. LECs were multiple, mainly between 7 mm and 12 mm in diameter and 26% showed internal echogenic foci either mobile or stationary. In contrast, LAs tended to be ill-defined, less than 5 mm and were not associated with posterior acoustic enhancement. Features differentiating LAs from LECs have not been previously described. Parotid FI (lipodystrophy) was noted in patients on highly active antiretroviral therapy, who showed lesser prevalence of LECs after 12 months of treatment. Conclusions: Our study of 200 patients is probably the largest such study in the English language literature. The wide spectrum of diagnostic ultrasound patterns was categorized into four main groups (ten subgroups).

AIUM Practice Guideline for the Performance of Ultrasound Examinations of the Head and Neck

The American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) is a multidisciplinary association dedicated to advancing the safe and effective use of ultrasound in medicine through professional and public education, research, development of guidelines, and accreditation. To promote this mission, the AIUM is pleased to publish, in conjunction with the American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, this revised AIUM Practice Guideline for the Performance of Ultrasound Examinations of the Head and Neck. We are indebted to the many volunteers who contributed their time, knowledge, and energy to bringing this document to completion. The AIUM represents the entire range of clinical and basic science interests in medical diagnostic ultrasound, and, with hundreds of volunteers, the AIUM has promoted the safe and effective use of ultrasound in clinical medicine for more than 50 years. This document and others like it will continue to advance this mission. Practice guidelines of the AIUM are intended to provide the medical ultrasound community with guidelines for the performance and recording of high‐quality ultrasound examinations. The guidelines reflect what the AIUM considers the minimum criteria for a complete examination in each area but are not intended to establish a legal standard of care. AIUM‐accredited practices are expected to generally follow the guidelines with recognition that deviations from these guidelines will be needed in some cases, depending on patient needs and available equipment. Practices are encouraged to go beyond the guidelines to provide additional service and information as needed.
