Abstract

Pediatric head and neck tumors are rare. Treatment of these tumors requires a multidisciplinary approach, including surgeons, pediatric oncologist, radiation oncologist, and other specialists. Special consideration needs to be given to the fact that structures are still growing and developing in these patients and late effects can occur long after treatment is given.
