What are Head and Neck Cancers?
Head and neck cancers include tumors developing in the oral cavity, larynx (voice box), pharynx, salivary glands, and thyroid. When diagnosed early, these cancers have a high treatment success rate. Our clinic in Istanbul offers world-class oncological care for international patients.
Which Symptoms Should You Pay Attention To?
Symptoms often start as ordinary complaints. You should consult an expert ENT oncologist immediately if you experience:
- Painless, growing masses or swellings in the neck.
- Hoarseness lasting more than 2 weeks.
- Difficulty swallowing or a feeling of food getting stuck.
- Non-healing sores, white or red patches in the mouth.
Multidisciplinary Oncological Approach in Turkey
The head and neck region houses vital functions like breathing, speaking, and swallowing. Therefore, treatment aims not only to eradicate the tumor but to preserve these organ functions. We utilize advanced microsurgery and laser techniques, working in a multidisciplinary board with medical and radiation oncologists to ensure the highest standard of care.
