About this book

This richly illustrated guide provides a detailed step-by-step description of the operative techniques employed in selective and radical neck dissection. The authors share the lessons of their extensive experience, giving precise surgical instructions specific to these procedures. Actual intraoperative photos, in combination with high-quality drawings, are used to explain all the essential steps. Anatomic variations are discussed and practical pearls and pitfalls, highlighted.

 

Neck dissection is an integral part of the management of patients with head and neck cancer. The complexity of the head and neck region makes this procedure an inherently delicate undertaking for surgeons from different specialties who treat head and neck cancer. This book will be an essential resource for trainees and practicing surgeons in the fields of head and neck surgery, oral and maxillofacial surgery, reconstructive surgery, and oncologic surgery.​
