4 Primary Care Referral Neck Lump/Non Figure 1 (numbers refer to numbered footnotes on subsequent pages) NECK LUMP? THYROID? FEATURES SUSPICIOUS OF MALIGNANCY? STRIDOR? REFERRAL GUIDELINE NECK LUMP ally ally Non- See separate primary care referral pathways for patients with thyroid disease - Lump persists after 3 weeks despite antibiotics** (see notes) - Infectious Mononucleosis (IM) excluded - No associated (non-lump) features of malignancy 1 Lump has associated (non-lump) features of UAT malignancy +/- stridor 3 Lump has associated (non-lump) features of haematological malignancy +/- stridor 6 Lump disappears within 3weeks +/- antibiotics or positive for IM. No associated (non-lump) features of malignancy No Stridor Stridor No Stridor - Fast-track appointment - clinic for UAT or Cons Haemoncology - Neck 2 - Fast-track appointment for UAT - Direct or a Neck lump 4 - Same day referral Or A+E - Management then diagnosis - Fast-track appointment - Cons Haem-oncology - Direct or at neck lump clinic 4 Not applicable
5 Primary Care Referral No Neck Lump Figure 2 (numbers refer to numbered footnotes on subsequent pages) NECK LUMP? THYROID? FEATURES SUSPICIOUS OF MALIGNANCY? STRIDOR? REFERRAL ROUTE NO NECK LUMP Patient had features suspicious of upper aero-digestive tract (UAT) cancer but no neck lump +/- Stridor: 3 Stridor No Stridor - Same day referral A+E - Management then diagnosis - Fast-track appointment for UAT - Direct 5 Patient has non-urgent UAT symptoms and no lump - Routine appointment - Central contact point of designated hospital ref proforma
6 Notes to numbered points on Figures Features suspicious of cancer associated with the non-thyroid neck lump itself (reference: Department of Health Referral Guidelines for the Diagnosis of Cancer, reviewed 2005): Persists for three weeks despite antibiotics; Infectious Mononucleosis excluded. ** If the clinician feels that the degree of suspicion for cancer is high, then immediate referral is suggested, rather than awaiting 3 weeks to see if there is any resolution 2 - See measure 11-1D-102i regarding the requirements for common working between designated clinicians for UAT cancer assessment and consultant haemato-oncologists. 3 - Features suspicious of UAT cancer which are not features of the lump itself (reference: Department of Health Referral Guidelines for the Diagnosis of Cancer, revised 2005): Hoarseness for more than six weeks; Oral mucosal ulcer persisting for more than three weeks; Oral swelling persisting for more than three weeks; Red or red and white patches of the oral mucosa; Dysphasia for more than three weeks; Unilateral nasal obstruction, especially with purulent discharge; Unexplained tooth mobility, not associated with periodontal disease; Cranial neuropathies; Orbital masses. 4 - Referral to a neck or direct to a designated clinician is at the discretion of the referrer depending on the nature of the presenting features. 5 - In the absence of a thyroid lump, there are unlikely to be any other head and neck features which would discriminate towards thyroid cancer compared to UAT cancer. Stridor is dealt with independently. Features of haematological malignancy, without neck lumps are not relevant to head and neck specific guidelines. The very rare cases of UAT and thyroid cancer presenting only with features due to distant metastases are not covered by these guidelines. They are better dealt with as part of guidelines on the diagnosis and management of a separate entity "carcinoma of unknown origin". 6 - Features suspicious of haematological malignancy (reference: Department of Health Referral Guidelines for Suspected Cancer).
