Neck mass
SpecialtyENT surgery

A neck mass or neck lump is an ambiguous mass found in the neck area. There are many different possible causes,[1] including head and neck cancer[2] and congenital conditions like branchial anomalies and thyroglossal duct cysts.[3]

Diagnosis

Workup of a neck mass includes a medical history and a physical examination, where important characteristics are location, size, shape, consistency, tenderness, mobility, and color.[4]

When this is not conclusive, further workup includes:

In some cases, fine needle aspiration may assist in the diagnosis.
