Surgical education: neck dissection

British Journal of Plastic Surgery

Abstract

Neck dissection is a valuable procedure for treating metastatic cancers of the head and neck. Radical neck dissection remains the standard for cervical metastasis. Because of the morbidity associated with such a treatment, more conservative approaches are being adopted. The authors describe how they do a neck dissection and review the issues that currently surround the choice of treatment.
