dc.description.abstractAlmost any mass or tumour requires cytological or histological diagnosis before a management plan can be formulated. Performing tissue biopsy of masses and lymph nodes of the head and neck fills many junior doctors with fear due to the complex anatomy and the vascular structures and nerves that traverse the head and neck. Yet diagnostic material can be safely obtained from most masses in the head and neck in an ambulatory care setting.
