Case Report: Sarcoidosis mimicking head and neck cancer progression.

Several case reports have been published describing the coexistence of sarcoidosis and cancer. In the literature, simultaneous occurrence of head and neck cancer and sarcoidosis is rarely reported. In this paper we present a case of a 42-year-old man with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, locally advanced, which after surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy developed local persistence and progression in the mediastinal lymph nodes.
