Abstrakt: |
A multiinstitutional study to define the impact of total treatment programs involving radical neck dissection (RND) and modified neck dissection (MND) on patients' permanent disability was undertaken. A total of 243 patient responses were included in the study. Comparative analyses between the treatment groups show no advantage of one surgical operation over the other in returning patients to their pretreatment employment status. Radiation therapy was identified as adding significantly to the patient's permanent disability. |
