Status of primary tumour surgical margins in squamous head and neck cancer: prognostic implications.

Current opinion in otolaryngology & head and neck surgery - 1 Apr 2007

Bradley Patrick J, MacLennan Kenneth, Brakenhoff Ruud H, Leemans C René

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To look at the current published literature on squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck, at the microscopic level, and the implications of molecular and genetic research. RECENT FINDINGS: The goal of surgical treatment is still complete eradication of the primary tumour with a 'safe margin'. To achieve this 'safe margin' is not always possible, however. Currently, there is no agreed...
