Abstract
Neoplasms that present in the head and neck of children are very different from those of the adults in terms of histology, presenting symptoms, and treatment planning. This chapter discusses epidemiology of pediatric head and neck neoplasms and details presentation and management of common pediatric head and neck neoplasms including: lymphoma, Ewing sarcoma, neuroblastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, teratoma, thyroid neoplasms, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
