✦ Synopsis

Neck dissection is a valuable method for treating clinical, subclinical, and subpathologic metastasis from cancer of the head and neck. So much has been written and said on the subject that it is necessary to distinguish the fact from the fiction. If you think you have discovered something new, it is because you did not read enough. This popular statement is particularly valid for the neck dissection.

Jacob Da Silva Solis-Cohen (1838-1927) of Philadelphia, America's first head and neck surgeon, 1 mentioned the necessity of removing the lymphatics of the neck during total laryngectomy regardless of whether there is clinical evidence of cancer in them 2 ; this was 5 years before Crile's report on neck dissection.
