Management of cervical metastasis

Eric J Lentsch. Curr Oncol Rep. 2004 Mar.

Abstract

Cervical metastasis from head and neck cancer is a common occurrence. Despite improvements in diagnostic modalities and treatment options, survival in this group of patients has not changed appreciably over the past few decades. Cervical metastasis portends a poor prognosis and also presents a diagnostic and treatment dilemma for the head and neck oncologist. This article reviews the current state of the art in the diagnosis and treatment of this difficult group of patients and the literature on the topic.
