Abstract
Fibroinflammatory and fibrosclerosing lesions involving the head and neck outside the thyroid and orbit are exceedingly rare. We present two cases of fibroinflammatory and fibrosclerosing lesions originating in the mediastinum which extended superiorly to involve soft tissues of the neck. These cases indicate that a subset of fibroinflammatory and fibrosclerosing lesions found in the head and neck originate in the mediastinum.
