Head and neck sarcomas: imaging "pearls" and "mimics".

ABSTRACT: Sarcomas are rare tumours, which can arise in any location in the head and neck. This review highlights the characteristic features of the commoner subtypes of bone and soft tissue sarcomas (including radiation-induced sarcomas), with emphasis on diagnostic "pearls" and imaging "mimics". This knowledge will help the radiologist formulate a differential diagnosis and expedite referral to a regional sarcoma unit for definitive management.
