Role of Perifacial Lymph Node in Nodal Metastasis in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Prospective Study
摘要
Nodal involvement in oral squamous cell carcinoma is common due to its lymphatic spread. First echelon group of lymph nodes are to be removed in such scenarios. Perifacial lymph nodes are one of the suspected groups to be affected in metastasis and also missed in dissection due to position. So separate evaluation of this group is important surgically.
