AB  - In  older  adults,  80%  of  firm,  persistent,  and  enlarging  neck  masses  are  metastatic  in  origin.  The  great  majority  of  these  arise  from  squamous  cell  carcinoma  of  the  upper  aerodigestive  tract.  A  complete  head  and  neck  examination  may  reveal  the  tumor  of  origin,  but  examination  under  anesthesia  with  direct  laryngoscopy,  esophagoscopy,  and  bronchoscopy  is  usually  required  to  fully  evaluate  the  tumor  and  exclude  second  primaries.
