## Abstract In patients with early head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), occult lymph node metastasis is difficult to predict by clinical or pathological parameters. However, such parameters are necessary to select patients either for elective neck dissection or the sentinel lymph node (SL
## Abstract The relationship between the mode of tumor invasion in the tumorβhost borderline and the frequency of regional lymph node metastasis was investigated in squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity. Cases with grades 1β3 mode of invasion classified by modified Jacobsson criteria showed a
