A Retrospective Analysis of 8457 Glossectomy Cases Over 15 Years—The Boon and Bane of Radical Neck Dissection
While the extent of glossectomy did not influence immediate postoperative outcomes, concurrent RND significantly increased complication risks in extended glossectomy patients. These findings emphasize the importance of individualized risk assessment and tailored surgical planning to enhance patient outcomes in glossectomy procedures.
