abstract: Three-hundred and eighty cases of head and neck cancers in children, observed in the Pediatric Department of the Institut Gustave Roussy over a 12-year period are reported. The authors study the clinical presentation of these cancers (primary site and histological distribution) and consider the major prognostic factors. A brief reminder is then given of the therapeutic indications for the main tumors observed.
