Overview
abstract
A ten year experience with immediate cervical flap repair of the Commando defect is reported in a selected series of more than seventy patients with clinically negative neck-nodes. Preoperative radiotherapy of 2"000 and 3,000 r to the neck and primary tumor has not interfered with wound healing. The cosmetic and functional result is highly commendable.
