    This study found no significant difference in neck tumor recurrence rates between radical neck dissection and conservation neck dissection. Both surgical approaches offer comparable outcomes for head and neck cancer patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Cancer Research

    Background:

    • Neck dissection is a critical surgical procedure for head and neck cancers.
    • Radical neck dissection (RND) involves extensive removal of neck structures.
    • Conservation neck dissection (CND) aims to preserve certain structures, potentially reducing morbidity.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the neck tumor recurrence rates between patients undergoing radical neck dissection (RND) and conservation neck dissection (CND).
    • To evaluate the oncological safety of CND in managing head and neck malignancies.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 691 neck dissections performed on 631 patients.
    • Patients were treated in the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery.

  • Follow-up was conducted for at least 24 months postoperatively.

    • Main Results:

    • Group I included 422 radical neck dissections.
    • Group II included 269 conservation neck dissections.
    • No statistically significant difference was observed in neck recurrence rates between the RND and CND groups.

    Conclusions:

    • Conservation neck dissection is oncologically equivalent to radical neck dissection regarding neck recurrence.
    • CND may offer a viable alternative to RND, potentially with reduced functional deficits.
    • Further research may explore patient selection criteria for each surgical approach.
