Table 3. Comparison of clinical and histological staging at
each neck level for both cN0 and cN+ve patients in all neck dissections
(63 NDs from 61 patients). Readers are reminded that if a patient was
cN0 at a particular level they may have been cN+ve at a different level
that determined their overall cN staging (for instance there were 12
level IIs that were classified as cN0, but these patients may have been
cN+ve at a different level as there were only 9 patients were cN0 at
every neck level) |
