Thyroid and laryngeal cancer, first train to which lymph node
VI
Which incision is made in the
neck dissection ?

Level I to V LN are removed + three extra lymphatic structure are removed
Internal jugular vein,
spinal accessory nerve sternocleidomastoid muscle
Which structures are removed in MRND ?
Level I to V LN are removed + but at least one extra lymphatic structure is saved
MRND I ; spinal accessory nerve is saved
MRND II ; both spinal accessory nerve and Internal jugular vein saved
MRND III : all 3 saved (functional neck, dissection)
SND includes
