| الوصف: | Background: Neck swellings are frequently found and can present the vast pathological spectrum from simple benign to highly malignant, which sometimes can pose a diagnostic dilemma. They are broadly classified as developmental, inflammatory, and neoplastic on the basis of etiology. The aim of the study is to assess the distribution of neck swelling according to etiology and its relation to age groups, as well as to assess their clinicopathological correlation as benign and malignant. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted from January 2020 to February 2023 on the basis of retrospective and prospective sampling. All the patients with neck swellings, except thyroid, who had undergone an excisional or incisional biopsy, were included in this study. Data was collected from in-patient records for retrospective sampling, and fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC), radiological investigation, and excisional or incisional biopsy were performed for prospective sampling after proper history and examination. Cytological and pathological correlation was analyzed as benign and malignant. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated. (P value |
