We have previously described our treatment algorithm for patients with small head and neck cancers with advanced cervical metastases (stage N2 or greater). Primary radiotherapy is given to the primary site and neck, followed 6 weeks later with endoscopy and biopsy of the primary site. If biopsy of the primary site is negative by frozen section, an immediate neck dissection is performed even when no clinical residual neck disease is present. Our initial review found that 36% of patients with a complete clinical response to radiotherapy had positive nodes on histological examination.
