[MUSIC PLAYING]

I am Professor Chintamani and we are going to talk about neck dissections, the indications and the technique.

I have nothing else to declare except the fact that a lot of the ideas and the thoughts that are expressed in this presentation are out of this editorial that I did in 2015, The “Ten Commandments” of Safe and Optimum Neck Dissections in Head and Neck Cancers.
