Abstract
Cervical lymph nodes are the most common site of metastasis from head and neck cancer and are the single most important prognostic factor in treating head and neck cancer. Neck dissection is the standard treatment for clinical and occult metastasis of head and neck cancer to the cervical nodal basins. This review will discuss the evolution of neck dissection over the past 2 centuries, highlighting the surgeons and articles credited with the major advancements of the procedure.
