Types Of Neck DissectionRadical neck dissection
Modified radical dissection
Selective neck dissection
Extended radical neck dissection
![Page 38: Neck dissection](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587eb4691a28abbb688b5a05/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Classification of NeckDissections
Academy’s classification
– Based on 4 concepts
1. RND is the standard basic procedure for cervical lymphadenectomy against which all other modifications
2. Modifications of the RND which include preservation of any non- lymphatic structures are referred to as modified radical neck dissection (MRND)
![Page 39: Neck dissection](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587eb4691a28abbb688b5a05/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Classification of NeckDissections
3) Any neck dissection that preserves one or more groups or levels of lymph nodes is referred to as a selective neck dissection (SND)
4) An extended neck dissection refers to the removal of additional lymph node groups or non-lymphatic structures relative to the RND
![Page 40: Neck dissection](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062412/587eb4691a28abbb688b5a05/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Skin IncisionVascularisation of flaps
Exposure
Protection of major vessels
Localization of primary tumour
Consider previous radiotherapy & reconstruction
Cosmesis
Previous surgical field

Blood Supply Of Cervical Neck Skin
Blood enters from above, below and either
side with a resultant watershed in the
middle of the neck. Incisions can be
planned to utilize this so as to maximize
blood supply to each of the neck flaps.

With traction and countertraction, the skin is incised in one movement with a No. 10 blade through the platysma muscle
In the posterior part of the neck, the fibers of the sternomastoid muscle are inserted directly into the skin which makes the dissection and identification of the appropriate plane more difficult.
