Summary: Neck dissection is a commonly used procedure for treating cervical lymph node metastasis in head and neck cancer patients. However, with the emergence of immunotherapy, the removal of lymph nodes with immune function needs to be reconsidered. A study on HPV16-positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients found that preserving non-metastatic lymph nodes is important for their immune function during neck dissection and when administering immunotherapy. Head and neck surgical oncologists should consider the role of immunotherapy and neck dissection in the treatment of head and neck cancer.

Summary: This study conducted a systematic review on the surgical approaches for the treatment of retropharyngeal lymph node metastases. The results showed high success rates and various complications by different approaches, and more randomized controlled trials are needed for further comparison.

Summary: The study found that selected PTC patients with cN1b disease but no evidence of clinically involved central compartment lymph nodes may have a low rate of central neck recurrence, indicating that a prophylactic central compartment neck dissection may not be necessary for these patients.

Summary: Deep lymph nodes located along internal jugular veins are well-known to radiologists and clinicians, while superficial lymph nodes draining lymph from the scalp, face, and neck are less recognized. Understanding the anatomical and imaging features of both types of lymph nodes is important for treating patients with head and neck cancers.

Summary: Axillary lymph node dissection is a crucial step in modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer, providing valuable information for prognosis and treatment planning. Anatomically divided into levels I, II, and III, the decision to perform level III lymph node dissection requires consideration of indications, complications, and surgical procedures.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the frequency of metastatic involvement of an axillary reverse mapping (ARM) lymph node (LN) among patients undergoing axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). Among the 139 patients enrolled, 20% of the patients had a positive ARM LN.

Summary: This study evaluated the prognostic value of the number of lymph nodes removed in breast cancer patients who underwent axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). The results showed that in certain subgroups, patients with less than 10 lymph nodes removed had worse prognosis and may require closer monitoring.

Summary: Adequate lymph node dissection (LND) in stage I rectal cancer (RC) patients is associated with a lower risk of cancer-specific death, especially in pT2N0 patients. This suggests that pT2N0 patients should undergo adequate LND, while those with inadequate LND may require additional therapy.

Summary: This study conducted molecular engineering to design a near-infrared-II aggregation-induced emission luminogen with ultralong absorption wavelength for lymph node imaging and surgical navigation. Compared with the clinically used indocyanine green, the designed nanoparticles showed longer retention time, higher penetration depth, better signal-to-noise ratio, and greater photostability, enabling fast and accurate navigation of sentinel lymph nodes.

Summary: This study aims to identify lymph node involvement in OSCC performed in a bilateral systematic approach based on presurgical MRI and CT. The results showed positive lymph node involvement in levels 1 and 2, while no involvement was seen in level 5. Therefore, without any clinical or imaging suspicion, expanding to 5-level MRND should be avoided.

Summary: Metastases to supraclavicular lymph nodes have a significant impact on the prognosis of patients with cervical esophageal cancer. These lymph nodes may be considered extra-regional in this patient population.

Summary: This study compared the surgical outcomes of endoscopic-assisted lateral neck dissection (EALND) and conventional open lateral neck dissection (COLND) for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with lateral lymph node metastases (LNM). The findings showed that EALND had longer operation time and higher cost, but lower incidence of postoperative neck numbness and higher patient satisfaction with postoperative neck scarring. The common complications for both groups were transient recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and transient hypoparathyroidism.

Summary: This study investigates the performance of four atlas-based and two deep learning solutions for automatic segmentation of head-and-neck elective nodes on CT images. The results show that the deep learning solutions outperform the atlas-based methods, with the multi-centric deep learning method being preferred by physicians. Manual corrections are still necessary to avoid underdosage of the elective target volume.

Summary: The SINODAR-ONE trial aimed to assess whether SLN biopsy only would worsen the prognosis compared with ALND in patients with T1-2 breast cancer and one or two macrometastatic SLNs. The results showed that the 3-year survival and relapse rates of patients treated with SLNB only were not inferior to those treated with ALND.
