Abstract

The new WHO classification of head and neck tumors provides a comprehensive overview of lesions by summarizing their clinical, epidemiological, histological, immunohistochemical, molecular and genetic features. The chapters related to the description of oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal lesions have thus been largely modified.
