Abstract
The role of initial ND was limited in patients with node-positive OPSCC. The treatment strategy not involving initial ND is considered feasible and acceptable when nodal evaluation after definitive radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy is applied adequately. However, it is possible that initial ND improves outcomes in patients with resectable large-volume nodal disease.
