Metastases are the major cause of death from cancer. The treatment for metastases in cases of oral cancer can be done through surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or combination of any of these. When opting for surgery, the neck dissection is inevitable. Neck dissection can bring significant amount of morbidity as it requires great expertise and knowledge of structures to be removed and preserved.
