title: [Quality assurance in head and neck surgical oncology].
abstract: In patients' management affected by head and neck cancers, surgery takes a major place with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. An updating of the surgical techniques available, and validated indications seems useful to harmonize the head and neck oncological surgery practices and so optimize its safety. A focus on the quality assurance in head and neck surgical oncology is proposed.
