Objective: To analyze ultrasonographic features of the different kinds of cervical cystic lesions, and propose differential diagnostic standard for these lesions based on the evidence of high resolution ultrasonography.
Methods: The clinical data of 107 patients with different kinds of cervical cystic lesions were analyzed. The role of gray scale and colour Doppler sonography for such lesions was prospectively studied.
Results: The rate of accuracy for benign cervical cystic lesions was 91.1% (92/101), however, it was only 16.7% (1/6) for malignant cervical cystic lesions.
Conclusion: High-resolution ultrasonography is effective and simple in differential diagnosis of different kinds of cervical cystic lesions, especially for benign ones.

Orbital lymphangiomas are not considered hamartomas because the orbit does not commonly display lymphatic vessels. In this case report, we describe a male patient who was 15 years old and presented to our medical facility with the primary complaints of having a bulging left eye, sudden chemosis of the lower conjunctiva, and pain in the left eye.

Radiation Oncology, Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy - Mohammed First University, oujda, MAR.
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the submandibular gland is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy, distinguished by its tendency for perineural invasion and distant metastasis, particularly to the lungs and bones. The management of ACC is challenging due to its biological variability and the absence of specific randomized controlled trials to guide treatment. This report aims to encapsulate the clinical features, histological profile, diagnostic workup, and management options for submandibular gland ACC, with an emphasis on recent advancements in understanding and treatment.
