\u00bfQu\u00e9 es el c\u00e1ncer de am\u00edgdala?<\/h4>\n

Hay tres tipos de am\u00edgdalas en la garganta: las am\u00edgdalas nasofar\u00edngeas, conocidas como \u201cadenoides\u201d, que se encuentran detr\u00e1s de la nariz; las am\u00edgdalas palatinas, ubicadas en los lados de la garganta; y las am\u00edgdalas linguales, que se encuentran en la parte posterior de la lengua. El c\u00e1ncer de am\u00edgdala con m\u00e1s frecuencia involucra las am\u00edgdalas palatinas, que son dos almohadillas de forma oval hechas de gl\u00f3bulos blancos y localizadas en la parte posterior y los lados de la boca u orofaringe. Las am\u00edgdalas est\u00e1n hechas de tejido linfoide y son responsables de ayudar a combatir la infecci\u00f3n y defender el organismo contra los g\u00e9rmenes. El c\u00e1ncer de am\u00edgdala es causado por un crecimiento excesivo de las c\u00e9lulas del revestimiento superficial de las am\u00edgdalas. Incluso si le han extirpado las am\u00edgdalas (amigdalectom\u00eda), igualmente puede sufrir c\u00e1ncer de am\u00edgdalas si qued\u00f3 alg\u00fan resto de tejido amigdalino luego del procedimiento. Hay dos tipos principales de c\u00e1ncer de am\u00edgdala: los carcinomas de c\u00e9lulas escamosas, que constituyen la gran mayor\u00eda de los casos, y los linfomas. Debido a que algunas personas no experimentan s\u00edntomas hasta que la enfermedad ya se encuentra bastante avanzada, el c\u00e1ncer de c\u00e9lulas de am\u00edgdalas a veces se diagnostica cuando se ha extendido a otras \u00e1reas de la boca, como la lengua o los ganglios linf\u00e1ticos del cuello. La siguiente informaci\u00f3n sobre el c\u00e1ncer de am\u00edgdalas se refiere solo a las am\u00edgdalas palatinas.<\/p>\n
