Zervikales CUP-Syndrom: Diagnostik und Therapie

Beim zervikalen CUP-Syndrom liegt eine histologisch gesicherte Halslymphknotenmetastase bei unbekanntem Primärtumor vor. Die Diagnostik beinhaltet neben Anamnese, klinischer Untersuchung und histologischer Sicherung die radiologische Bildgebung mittels PET/CT sowie eine Panendoskopie mit histologischer Primärtumorsuche. Als Behandlungsoptionen stehen eine chirurgische Therapie mit Neck Dissection und die Radiochemotherapie zur Verfügung.
