Abstract
In our cohort of patients with initially cN0 OSCC triaged to END vs. observation using clinical parameters, 15% developed neck failure. Salvage treatment was feasible in most cases but survival was poorer compared to patients without neck failure. Surgery followed by adjuvant (chemo) radiation resulted in the best outcome.
