Outcome of per oral wide excision of T1‐2 N0 localized squamous cell cancer of the buccal mucosa—analysis of 156 cases

Abstract

Peroral wide excision seems to be an adequate procedure for T1-2N0 localized squamous cancer of buccal mucosa. Prophylactic selective neck dissection should be considered in only T2 N0 cases as only T stage of the disease could be significantly correlated with the development of the metastatic neck nodes.
