## Abstract For patients with advanced regional disease, neck dissection following (chemo)radiotherapy remains controversial. Selective neck dissection (SND) was reported as suitable after chemoradiation in patients with advanced regional disease. Reduced morbidity represents the major advantage of

## Abstract ## Background. The role of salvage neck dissection for isolated regional recurrences after definitive radiotherapy (RT) is illβdefined. ## Methods. Fiveβhundred fifty patients were treated with RT for lymph nodeβpositive head and neck cancer. RT consisted of a median dose of 74.4 Gy.
Background. This study evaluates the utility of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) in patients with a node-positive mucosal head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who achieved a complete response at the primary site but had a residual mass in the neck 8 weeks or mor
