Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Oro- and nasopharyngeal masses are rare in infancy and consist of developmental anomalies and, mostly benign, neoplasms. CASE REPORT: We report two infants with a tumour in the ear-nose-throat region. DISCUSSION: As shown by our cases, the clinical presentation of an oropharyngeal mass in infancy varies from respiratory insufficiency at birth to incidental finding by the parents a few months after birth.Entities:
