Sažetak
Inclusion criteria were T1, T2 or T3 intraoral or oropharyngeal cancer with N0 clinically staged neck. We performed lymphoscintigraphy, ultrasound guided needle aspiration, imprint cytology and histopathology of the neck dissection. This study is preliminary report of 50 patients study taking place in our department. Up to now it is hard to make conclusionsfrom such a small sample. We can say that further investigation should be made to make sure weather to use or not SLN biopsy as a method for preoperative staging of the neck in intraoral cancer patients.
