    Histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis of the neck
    (W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2003) Köybaşı, Serap; Saydam, Levent; Güngen, Yücel
    Histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis (HNL) also known as Kikuchi or Kikuchi-Fujimato disease is a benign and self-limiting disease. The entity was first described in 1972 by Kikuchi and Fujimato in Japan independently. HNL is prevalent in Asia, although it may be seen in a wide geographic distribution. It commonly affects young women. Cervical lymphadenopathy is the most prominent symptom and should be differentiated from lymphoproliferative, autoimmune, and postinfectious diseases. Apoptosis is the main process, taking role in pathogenesis of the disease. Although it is a well-known entity among pathologists, little is written in ear, nose, and throat literature. In this study, we report 2 male patients with HNL presenting with enlarged cervical lymph nodes with a brief review of literature.

    (W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2003) Köybaşı, Serap; Saydam, Levent; Kutluay, Lale
    Zygomatic hemangioma is an extremely rare, benign, slow-growing tumor occurring mostly in adult women. The radiologic findings are diagnostic. Total excision of the tumor with primary reconstruction of the defect is the preferred treatment modality. We present a case of zygomatic hemangioma and a brief review of the literature.

    Laryngeal chondroma presenting as an external neck mass
    (Springer-Verlag, 2003) Saydam, Levent; Köybaşı, Serap; Kutluay, Lale
    Laryngeal chondromas are rare benign tumors originating from the cartilagenous framework of the larynx. Since its first description in 1882, about 250 cases have been reported in the literature. Depending on the size of the lesion, excision via an endoscopic or open surgical approach is the treatment of choice. The majority of these patients present with an endolaryngeal mass. To encounter an external neck mass as the reason for the initial presentation is a rare occurrence. In this article we report. a case of laryngeal chondroma of cricoid cartilage origin, which presented as a neck mass. The lesion was totally excised using a transcervical approach. No tracheotomy or laryngeal stent was needed postoperatively. Despite its rarity, this diagnostic possibility should always be kept in mind for elderly patients with complaints of progressive voice changes and exertional dyspnea.
