pubmed:abstractText |
Carcinomas of the upper aerodigestive tract are characterized by a high incidence of local metastasis in the neck. The presence of lymph node metastasis represents the most unfavorable prognostic factor for these tumors. A diagnostic routine is needed in order to identify the highest number of neck metastasis, thereby optimizing the selection of patients eligible for surgical neck treatment and reduce costs and length of hospital stay.
