[Preoperative ultrasonic diagnosis of metastasis to the cervical lymph nodes from otorhinolaryngeal neoplasms].
The results of a study on 30 patients with ear, nose and throat cancers are discussed; a comparison of clinical, ultrasound and histological findings for the preoperatory evaluation of the cervical lymph nodes has been carried out. Ultrasound technique is an excellent method of investigation for the staging "N" of such neoplasms; its contribution is very important for the following therapeutic program.
