✦ Synopsis

Ninety-four soft-tissue sarcomas of head and neck occurring among 10,700 malignancies, seen during the period 1953-I980 in the head-and-neck surgical department, were studied with reference to age, sex, ethnic origin, site, histological type and survival. The objective was to review our own experience with sarcomas in these sites seen in the Department of Pathology, A.C. Camargo Hospital. The predominant site was the head. Fibrosarcoma was the most frequent type in adults and rhabdomyosarcoma, located exclusively in the head, was the most frequent in children.
