[Cervical metastasis of choriocarcinoma].
Neck metastatic adenopathy involves to set off a protocol aiming to specify the growth's origin. Complete ENT-examination facing a hard, movable, laterocervical lump is compulsory. Lacking the primary next comes fine needle biopsy and if it's not clear enough a cervicotomy must be performed. We report the diagnosis, the treatment and the follow-up of a testicle choriocarcinoma case, diagnosed through neck biopsy. Perusal of the bibliography.
