The aim of this study is to investigate if prophylactic neck dissection is necessary in early stage lower lip cancers. Methods Charts of 11 patients who underwent surgery of the primary site and neck because of T1-2N0 lower lip cancer between 1997 and 2011 were retrospectively examined. Clini...

متن کاملA meta-analysis of the randomized controlled trials on elective neck dissection versus therapeutic neck dissection in oral cavity cancers with clinically node-negative neck.
There is still no consensus on the optimal treatment of the neck in oral cavity cancer patients with clinical N0 neck. The aim of this study was to assess a possible benefit of elective neck dissection in oral cancers with clinical N0 neck. A comprehensive search and systematic review of electronic databases was carried out for randomized trials comparing elective neck dissection to therapeutic...
متن کاملElective neck dissection in early oral squamous cell carcinoma: necessary?
Aim: The indication of neck dissection in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a problem of risk-benefit evaluation between probability of neck metastases, the problem of complications associated with neck dissection and the prognostic influence of delayed diagnosis of metastasis during follow-up. There is no consensus on the elective treatment of the neck in early oral cancer patients with a...
متن کاملSentinel node biopsy as an alternative to elective neck dissection for staging of early oral carcinoma.
BACKGROUND We report the outcome of sentinel node biopsy (SNB) for staging the neck in a consecutive cohort of 34 patients with T1/2 clinically N0 oral carcinoma. METHODS SNB was performed along with resection of primary tumor. Neck dissection was reserved for failure of SNB or pathologically positive sentinel nodes (pN+). RESULTS Sentinel node identification was successful in 32 of 34 pati...
