What Kind Of Doctor Should I Consult For Needle Biopsy And Warton Tumor In Neck?
I have a warton tumor on my neck under my ear. Went to an ENT Dr. And was told it must be removed however because its near arteries could have danger of paralysis. Had fine needle biopsy no cancer but only when removed can they be 100 percent sure. How do I find a Dr who would specialize with this surgery?

hello there, thanks for the question. Im a dental specialist, read your quiery, u have not mentioned anything about any pain or difficulty with this tumor.have you done any radiological investigation like mri of the said region along with your fine needle biopsy??MRI imaging will give you whether it is involving the arteries and nerves and also will indicate whether surgery is needed immediately, in my opinion you should consult a oral maxillo surgeon preferably or a head and neck surgeon/ENT surgeon.. Hope this helps and feel free to get back with other symptoms r any history regarding this tumor u have. many thanks
