Neck Dissection Planning Based on Postchemoradiation Computed Tomography in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Archives of Otolaryngology, 09/23/09
Langerman A et al. – Filling defects or thrombosis of the IJV is highly predictive of need for removal intraoperatively, which may affect planning especially in bilateral neck dissections in which an effort may be made to preserve at least 1 vein. Presence of a clear tissue plane between the SCM and carotid sheath predicts the ability to preserve this muscle. Changes in the status of the IJV and SCM seen on CT that occur as a result of CRT may make preservation of these structures more feasible, even in patients with advanced neck disease.
