A case of solitary fibrous tumor arising from the palatine tonsil.

[Minocycline sclerotherapy for lymphorrhea following neck dissection].

Postoperative cervical lymphorrhea is a complication uncommonly encountered following neck dissection for which several treatment modalities have been described in the literature. We managed 8 cases of lymphorrhea after neck dissection by injecting Minocycline through a drainage tube. We attempted this procedure for lymph discharge that had continued despite pressure dressing and systemic management with nutritional modification for about 1 week.
