Abstract:
Nowadays, the multidisciplinary team (MDT) is an essential component for oncologic disease management. Its benefit is also extensively recognized in head and neck cancer (HNC) community, due to tumor rarity and complex treatment. A well-defined MDT management serves as a stable point to define the better strategy and offers a chance to optimize HNC clinical outcomes and patient's quality of life. We explored both mandatory and additional requirements for establishing a high-quality MDT. Then we proposed an example of HNC MDT organization. The aim is to contribute to the best way to systematize HNC care.
