Definitions

A non-neoplastic or neoplastic disorder that affects the anatomic structures of the head and neck region. This category includes inflammatory disorders, benign neoplasms, precancerous conditions, and malignant neoplasms. [ NCI ] This term had been labelled 'head disease' up until EFO 2.90 where it was then amended to 'head and neck disorder' to better reflect meaningful classification. The old definition is "The name of the pathology diagnosed in the organism from which the biomaterial was derived. The disease state is normal if no disease has been diagnosed. E.g Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia".
