Abstract

cN0 supraglottic laryngeal carcinoma has a high rate of occult cervical lymph nodes metastasis, and its metastatic area is mainly located in level Ⅱ-Ⅲ, so the primary tumor of the laryngeal carcinoma and the neck lymph node of level Ⅱ-Ⅲ should be managed at the same time. For the cN0 patients with poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma or T4 staging should be treated with bilateral neck dissection.
