pubmed:abstractText |
When to do a neck dissection as part of the surgical treatment for a patient with squamous carcinoma of the oral tongue is controversial, particularly when the primary can be resected without entering the neck. If the patient who is at high risk for having occult nodal disease in the neck can be identified, node dissection with the glossectomy could be justified. To better identify patients for this procedure, we correlated various tumor and patient factors along with preoperative diagnostic studies with the presence or absence of pathologically positive nodes in a group of patients who underwent node dissection.
