title: Radical neck dissection: considerations in flat design.
abstract: A wide choice of skin incisions and skin flaps is available to the surgeon contemplating radical neck dissection. The choice of incisions, however, may often be influenced by a number of existing or pre-existing conditions. Each situation has to be treated on its own merit depending on the prevailing cicumstances if all objectives are to be achieved.
