Elective Neck dissection for parotid malignancy?
2014 Ian Ganly paper
In patients with cN0 disease, observation of the neck is safe in those who are under 60 years of age with clinical T1 or T2 tumors and who have low-grade histology.
END should be carried out in patients with cT3-T4 disease or high-grade histology and should involve levels II to IV at a minimum.
Patients with cN? disease commonly have all neck levels involved and therefore should be managed with comprehensive neck dissection.
