Academys classification
Based on 4 concepts
1) RND is the standard basic procedure for
cervical lymphadenectomy against which all
other modifications are compared
Academys classification
Academys classification(1991)
1) Radical neck dissection (RND)
2) Modified radical neck dissection (MRND)
3) Selective neck dissection (SND)
Supra-omohyoid type
Lateral type
Posterolateral type
Anterior compartment type
4) Extended radical neck dissection
Spiros classification
Radical (4 or 5 node levels resected)
Conventional radical neck dissection
Modified radical neck dissection
Extended radical neck dissection
Modified and extended radical neck
dissection
Selective (3 node levels resected)
SOHND
Jugular dissection (Levels II-IV)
- Any other 3 node levels resected
Limited (no more than 2 node levels resected)
Paratracheal node dissection
Mediastinal node dissection
Any other 1 or 2 node levels resected
TYPES
- Apron incision
-Half apron incision
-Conley incision
-Double Y incision
-H incision
-Macfee incision

TYPE A MRND
Indications
Clinically obvious lymph node metastases
SAN not involved by tumor
Intraoperative decision
Indications
Rarely planned
Intraoperative tumor found adherent to
the SCM, but not IJV and SAN
Rationale
Suarez (1963) necropsy and surgery specimens
of larynx and hypopharynx lymph nodes do not
share the same adventitia as adjacent BVs
Nodes not within muscular aponeurosis or
glandular capsule (submandibular gland)
Sharpe (1981) showed ) 0% involvement of the
SCM in 98 RND specimens despite 73 have nodal
metastases
Survival approximates MRND Type I assuming
IJV, and SCM not involved
Widely accepted in Europe
Neck dissection of choice for N0 neck
Rationale
Reduce postsurgical shoulder pain and
shoulder dysfunction
Improve cosmetic outcome
Reduce likelihood of bilateral IJV
resection - Contralateral neck
involvement
Definition
Cervical lymphadenectomy with
preservation of one or more lymph node
groups
Four common subtypes:
Supraomohyoid neck dissection
Posterolateral neck dissection
Lateral neck dissection
Anterior neck dissection
Indications
Oral cavity carcinoma with N0 neck
Boundaries Vermillion border of lips to
junction of hard and soft palate,
circumvallate papillae
Subsites - Lips, buccal mucosa, upper and
lower
alveolar ridges, retromolar trigone, hard
palate, and anterior 2/3s of the tongue
and FOM
Medina recommends SOHND with T2-T4
NO or TX N1 (palpable node is <3cm,
mobile, and in levels I or II)
Bilateral SOHND
Anterior tongue
Oral tongue and FOM that approach the midline
SOHND + parotidectomy
Cutaneous SCCA of the cheek
Melanoma (Stage I 1.5 to 4mm) of the cheek
Byers does not advocate elective neck dissection
for buccal carcinoma
Adjuvant RT given to patients with > 2- 4
positive nodes +/- ECS.
Definition
En bloc removal of the jugular lymph
nodes including Levels II-IV.
Indications
N0 neck in carcinomas of the
oropharynx, hypopharynx, supraglottis,
and larynx
Definition
En bloc excision of lymph bearing tissues
in Levels II-IV and additional node groups
suboccipital and postauricular.
Indications
Cutaneous malignancies
Melanoma
Squamous cell carcinoma
Merkel cell carcinoma
Soft tissue sarcomas of the scalp and neck
Definition
En bloc removal of lymph structures in
Level VI
Perithyroidal nodes
Pretracheal nodes
Precricoid nodes (Delphian)
Paratracheal nodes along recurrent
nerves
Limits of the dissection are the hyoid
bone, suprasternal notch and carotid
sheaths
Indications
Selected cases of thyroid carcinoma
Parathyroid carcinoma
Subglottic carcinoma
Laryngeal carcinoma with subglottic
extension
CA of the cervical esophagus
Definition
Any previous dissection which includes removal
of one or more additional lymph node groups
and/or non-lymphatic structures.
Usually performed with N+ necks in MRND or
RND when metastases invade structures usually
preserved
Indications
Carotid artery invasion
Other examples:
Resection of the hypoglossal nerve resection or
digastric muscle,
