An improved technique of radical neck dissection with an analysis of long-term results of 1,000 operated cases of head and neck cancer.
An improved technique of radical neck dissection is presented with a report of all 1,000 operated cases of the head and neck region from 1964 to 1980 at the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhongshan Medical College, in Guangzhou, China. The practice has proved that our operative procedures are time-saving, with less blood loss during operation, fewer operative mortalities, fewer complications, better end results, better cosmetic effects, and that the techniques are easier to master.
