Аннотация
BACKGROUND: The treatment of tongue tumors includes different surgical procedures ranging from a simple mucosal resection to complex combined resection depending on the tumor stage and size. In 2019 we reported an international glossectomy classification with the purpose of standardizing all the different types of surgical procedures adopted for tongue cancer.
METHODS: The present communication aims at providing further insight into the glossectomy classification. More specifically, it is intended to better specify the indications to glossectomy type IIIA and B in selected tongue cancers, with positive cervical lymph nodes at the diagnosis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Type IIIA glossectomy permits a high function sparing surgery in selected cases, with better postoperative functional outcomes. From an oncological perspective, it permits a radical surgery, avoiding postoperative radiation in the absence of extracapsular spread, multiple nodal metastases or T-N tract involvement.
