Head and neck masses are usually indicative of infectious, neoplastic, or congenital entities. Most head and neck masses are related to local or regional disease, although systemic neoplastic disease can present in the cervical area. We present an interesting case report of a young woman with a neck mass caused by an organism most commonly associated with sexually transmitted infections, and not with the more common causes of cervical head and neck masses.
头颈部肿块通常提示感染性、肿瘤性或先天性病变。大多数头颈部肿块与局部或区域疾病有关，尽管全身性肿瘤性疾病也可出现在颈部区域。我们报告了一例有趣的病例，一名年轻女性的颈部肿块由一种最常与性传播感染相关的病原体引起，而非头颈部肿块的更常见病因。
