Of the tumors of the neck some are very uncommon, difficult to diagnose both clinically and paraclinically. Two of the most rare tumors are osteolipoma and soft tissue sarcoma. We present 2 such cases admitted to and operated at the ENT Department of the Iasi "St. Spiridon" Emergency Hospital in the last 5 years, with emphasis on the atypical clinical and imaging features of these tumors. Surgery and histopathological examination were the methods used to make the diagnosis.
