This volume is devoted to the disorders and diseases that afflict the neck and also provides the surgical techniques used to manage them. The book begins with the anatomy critical to the successful management of neck disorders. The general considerations section then offers an extensive chapter on neck imaging written by an accomplished radiologist and covering the various diagnostic modalities available for the neck with a focus on CT and MRI. The book continues with parts on non-neoplastic diseases and non-squamous neoplasms. The non-neoplastic section encompasses congenital neck masses, infections and trauma. Non-squamous neoplasms cover tumours of different anatomic sites like the thyroid, parathyroid, parotid, and submandibular gland. The next part covers squamous cancer. The chapters discuss dissection alternatives, treatments, radiation options and complications. The last part covers frequently seen procedures like parotidectomy, thyroidectomy, parathyroidectomy, modified and radical neck dissection, and repair of fractures.
