Abstract
A rare case of granulocytic sarcoma of the head and neck region is presente
d to highlight its unusual clinical presentation and the difficulties encou
ntered in its diagnosis. The risk factors, pathological findings, and treat
ment modalities are discussed to make head and neck surgeons aware of this
condition, which can have a fatal outcome as happened in our case.
