title: The draping of the surgical field for major head and neck surgery.
abstract: Due to the complexities involved in extensive resections and primary reconstruction necessary in the management of head and neck cancer, a standard draping of the sterile surgical field has been adopted to allow the performance of the anticipated surgical plan or alternatives in an orderly fashion, without disrupting the function of other members of the surgical team.
