Head & Neck Oncology

What is Head & Neck Oncology?

Head & Neck Oncology is a highly specialized medical discipline focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of tumors and cancers affecting the head and neck region. This encompasses a wide range of conditions, including cancers of the oral cavity, throat, salivary glands, thyroid, sinuses, and more. Due to the complex anatomy of this area, specialized care is crucial to ensure optimal outcomes.

Types of Problems and Treatment:

1. Oral Cavity Cancer: Tumors affecting the lips, tongue, gums, and inner lining of the mouth require precise diagnosis and tailored treatment plans, which may include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.

2. Throat Cancer: Cancers of the throat, including the pharynx and larynx, demand a multidisciplinary approach. Treatment options may involve surgery, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy.

3. Salivary Gland Tumors: Benign and malignant tumors of the salivary glands necessitate expert assessment and personalized management. Surgical intervention is common, with preservation of function and aesthetics being paramount.

4. Thyroid Cancer: Thyroid malignancies require careful evaluation and often involve surgery, radioactive iodine therapy, and thyroid hormone therapy for effective treatment.

5. Sinus and Nasal Cavity Cancer: Tumors affecting the sinuses and nasal passages necessitate surgical expertise for complete resection while preserving function and appearance.
