Study Summary

Hypothesis 1. The submandibular gland is not a lymphatic organ and usually remains uninvolved with head and neck cancer despite the presence of metastatic disease in the lymph nodes that surround it. 2. All the lymph nodes in the submandibular triangle can be removed without resection of the submandibular gland. Study Design A better understanding of the frequency of submandibular gland involvement may lead to refined treatment strategies for head and neck cancer, which can possibly spare removal of the submandibular gland and potentially improve the long term side effects from therapy.

Primary Outcome

The number of head/ neck lymph nodes in pre-defined groups: Preglandular, Prevascular, Retrovascular, and Retroglandular as well as the number of nodes within the submandibular gland and within the fibrofatty contents lying deep to the submandibular gland.

Interventions

  • PROCEDURE neck dissection of at least the ipsilateral sub-level 1B
