2008 The American Laryngological, Rhinological and Otological Society, Inc. Is Radical Neck Dissection a Current Option for Neck Disease? Alfio Ferlito, MD, FRCS, FACS; Alessandra Rinaldo, MD, FACS For many years after the first description of a suc- cessful en bloc neck dissection by the Polish surgeon Jaw- dyn ski 1 in 1888, this procedure was the only operation accepted for the surgical treatment of the neck in patients with cancer of the head and neck staged N0 or otherwise. The operation he described has come to be known as the radical neck dissection (RND). This surgical procedure was strongly advocated by Crile in the early 20th centu- ry 24 and well established by Martin et al. 5 in the 1950s. The term RND has been accepted by the Committee for Neck Classification of the American Head and Neck Soci- ety. 68 The Japan Neck Dissection Study Group recently termed this surgical treatment as total neck dissection. 9 RND includes removal of all ipsilateral cervical lymph node groups extending from the inferior border of the mandible above, to the clavicle below, and from the lateral border of the sternohyoid muscle, the hyoid bone, and the contralateral anterior belly of the digastric muscle anteriorly, to the anterior border of the trapezius muscle posteriorly. It includes all lymph node groups from levels I to V (the submental group, the submandibular group, the upper jugular group, the middle jugular group, the lower jugular group, and the posterior triangle group). The spi- nal accessory nerve, the internal jugular vein, the sterno- cleidomastoid muscle, the submandibular gland, the tail of parotid gland, and the cervical plexus nerves are all removed. RND does not include removal of the suboccipi- tal nodes, periparotid nodes (except intraparotid nodes located in the posterior aspect of the submandibular tri- angle), buccinator nodes, retropharyngeal nodes, and mid- line visceral (anterior compartment) nodes. 7 RND there- fore is the dissection of all the lymph node levels and sublevels of the lateral neck. At present, conventional RND and modified RND (MRND) are no longer indicated for elective neck dissec- tion. The cancers of the head and neck do not involve all levels and sublevels of the lateral neck. In particular, RND is an overtreatment for N0 and Ndisease. Sublevel IA is usually not involved in advanced tumors of the larynx, hypopharynx, oropharynx, nasopharynx, parotid gland, submandibular gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, trachea, and cervical esophagus. There is no pri- mary cancer of the head and neck in which there is a high risk for involvement of sublevels IA and IB, IIA and IIB, VA and VB, and levels III and IV. In particular, the absence of metastases in sublevel IA and/or in sublevel VB does not justify a comprehensive dissection including levels I to V in patients with primary cancer of the head and neck. A strong trend exists in support of selective neck dissection being implemented as an oncologically safe and effective procedure for multiple N disease while limiting morbidity. The classic RND has been used for advanced-stage nodal metastases from head and neck cancer followed by adjuvant postoperative radiation therapy combined or not with concomitant chemotherapy. The specific indications were patients with N3 disease, extensive soft tissue dis- ease either appreciated clinically or demonstrated radio- logically. In cases with N3 neck disease, RND may not be sufficient. These patients remain at the highest risk for the development of local recurrence and distant metasta- ses. 10 The prognosis is usually poor. It is also important to remember that a large number of patients with advanced neck disease are not suitable candidates for aggressive treatment because of their clinical status or associated comorbidities and are, as a consequence, submitted to radiation therapy alone. 10 Patients with advanced N stages are currently treated initially with nonsurgical methods, usually with concomitant combinations of chemotherapy and irradia- tion. After the introduction of organ preservation strat- egies, with various combinations using chemoradiother- apy for definitive treatment of advanced locoregional cancer of the larynx and pharynx, there is emerging trend toward performing planned neck dissection for bulky cer- vical lymphadenopathy. The regional disease control for patients with persistent neck disease using selective and superselective neck dissections for advanced N2 and N3 disease after concurrent chemoradiation is excellent. 1118 There is ample evidence in the literature that concom- itant or concurrent radiochemotherapy can achieve From the Department of Surgical Sciences, ENT Clinic, University of Udine, Udine, Italy.

However, the development of distant metastases does remain a problem, despite the administration of sys- temic therapy. 11 The technique of selective neck dissection has also expanded to include removal of one or more of the non- lymphatic structures routinely included in the MRND or RND (i.e., sternocleidomastoid muscle, internal jugular vein, spinal accessory nerve). The structures most fre- quently sacrificed are the submandibular salivary gland and the internal jugular vein. 19,20 Medina et al. 21 recently investigated the feasibility of performing a single-level dissection in patients with head and neck cancer treated with radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy. The results confirmed the effec- tiveness of selective neck dissection in the management of residual disease in the neck. The majority of patients who present squamous car- cinoma in the neck with an unknown primary have N2 or N3 neck disease, stage IV head and neck cancer. The standard treatment choice has been RND followed by ra- diation therapy; however, the current treatment is a com- bination of chemoradiation therapy with neck dissection reserved for salvage purposes. The usage of the RND, even for advanced neck disease with unknown primary tumor, is generally unnecessary because all the five neck levels are rarely involved. At present, the use of RND has be- come greatly limited and this surgical procedure is no longer standard. 22 BIBLIOGRAPHY 1. Jawdyn ski F.
