Publication date: July–August 2013 Source:Otolaryngologia Polska, Volume 67, Issue 4 Author(s): Zuzanna Pujanek , Paweł K. Burduk Patients with CUP-Syndrome represent a small percentage of patients treated by ENT doctor. Often, in spite of the implementation detailed diagnostics, detection of the primary tumor fails. Very important element is to follow the correct sequence of tests and taking into account conditions outside ENT. I our article, we would like to propose a diagnostic scheme including interview with patient, laryngological and imaging tests and multi-disciplinary consulting. We hope that this scheme will facilitate the treatment of patients with CUP-Syndrome and increase the efficiency of detection of primary tumor.
