Temporal pain

Introduction Ankle pain is one of the clinical manifestations of soft palate cancer. Soft palate cancer accounts for 13.5% of the primary malignant tumor of the ankle. The etiology is similar to other malignant tumors in the oropharynx. The pathological type is more common in glandular epithelium, followed by squamous epithelium, and malignant melanoma is the third. Sarcoma is rare. The etiology is similar to other malignant tumors in the oropharynx, and is related to internal factors such as neuropsychology, endocrinology, heredity, and body immunity, as well as external factors such as physics, chemistry, or biology. Such as nitrite (usually found in pickled vegetables or overnight dishes), aflatoxins.

Soft sputum cancer is easy to find, and there may be superficial ulcers, soft asymmetry of soft palate, etc., and the palpation lesions are harder, and biopsy is needed for diagnosis.

In the early stage, only the oropharyngeal discomfort was felt, and the symptoms were not obvious and were easily ignored. After the occurrence of bad breath, sore throat, swallowing pain, can be radiated to the same side and neck, the use of antibiotics can temporarily relieve symptoms. In the advanced stage, dysphagia may occur and sound changes may occur. Soft palate fixation, destruction, and perforation may cause food to flow back to the nasal cavity; upward or outward invasion of the nasopharynx or parapharyngeal space may have closed jaws, difficulty in opening the mouth, otitis media, and pain in the ankle. And occasionally cranial nerve involvement.

Differential diagnosis

1. Mixed tumors, small parotid mixed tumors of the ankle are more benign than malignant. No symptoms, slow growth, and most of the tumor surface mucosa is normal. No bone damage. It can be identified by puncture cytology or frozen sections during surgery.

2. Maxillary sinus cancer, especially the primary wall of the primary wall often cause oral symptoms, sometimes indistinguishable from the invasion of the maxillary sinus. Maxillary sinus cancer often has nasal symptoms and abnormal exudate. The teeth loosened off early and the number was large. X-ray showed extensive bone destruction in maxillary sinus cancer occupying lesions.
