“…Ucak et al, most frequently encountered psoriasis (46.5%) lesions in pediatric patients with skin lesions, while the rate of neoplasms was 6.8% 23 . Duduyemi reported the rate of nonneoplastic lesions as 31.7% .5 (Inflammatory 16.9%, cyst 13.1%, reactive 1.6%, developmental disorderhamartome 0.2%) Lymphadenopathy can develop due to primary lymphoproliferative or infiltrative diseases, as well as in infectious and non-infectious conditions.Hamartomas may rarely develop from the neck lymph nodes 24,25 . In our study, the most common localization of subcutaneous tumors was the neck in 11 patients (37.9%).…”

Introduction: Malignant tumors of the skin include basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma and tumors of the skin appendages.Skin lesions in the head and neck region are frequently encountered in the geriatric population. Although these lesions are generally benign, it is widely known that the prevalence of malignant lesions increases with age.In adults, 80% of the masses in the neck, except benign thyroid diseases, are of neoplastic origin and this rate reaches 90% after the 5th decade. About 70% of these neoplastic masses are malignant, and three-quarters of these are metastatic and one-fourth is primary malignancies. Objectives: Increasing world population, increasing survival time and increasing geriatric patient population create some differences in healthcare. We planned this study for this purpose. Methods: The data of 73 patients aged 65 and over were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups as 65-75 years old (Group 1), > 75 years old (Group 2), by age. Results: Premalignant lesions were found to be statistically significantly higher in Group 1 (p<0.01). It was observed that malignant lesions were statistically significantly more common in the skin compared to the subcutaneous tissue. (p=0.015) Malignant skin lesions were observed statistically significantly more frequently in the neck region compared to other regions (p=0.004). Conclusions: The risk of malignancy in the patient group over 75 years is approximately doubled. It is necessary to approach the neck and subcutaneous masses carefully in terms of malignancy in the geriatric patient group

“…They are rare lesions and the number of cases reported in the literature is around 50 (7,8,9). Few case reports on the head and neck region have been published in the literature (10,11). Local excisions are sufficient for treatment (5).…”

Objective: Angiomyomatous hamartomas are extremely rare, tumor-like lesions of the lymph nodes. They are usually seen in the inguinal region lymph nodes. They are rarely seen in the lymph nodes of the cervical region. Histopathologically, fibrous tissues, smooth muscle cells, and vascular structures are seen in the lymph node structure. It is important to distinguish it from benign and malignant lesions of the lymph node. Case: A 1 cm diameter lymph node excision material removed from the cervical region of a 26-year-old male patient was sent to the pathology laboratory with a pre-diagnosis of lymphadenitis. 4- micron sections were taken from the paraffin blocks prepared from the tissues belonging to the lesion. The samples were examined by staining Hematoxylin-Eosin. In histopathological examination, it was found that almost all of the lymph node structure consisted of vascular structures and smooth muscle cells located on a fibrous ground. The case was reported as angiomyomatous hamartoma. Conclusion: Angiomyomatous hamartomas are extremely rare lesions of the cervical lymph nodes and their consideration in differential diagnosis will reduce the risk of possible diagnostic error.
