| | A modified radical neck dissection dissects all the levels of one side of the neck, but spares vital structures such as the sternocleidomastoid muscle, the spinal accessory nerve, and the internal jugular vein. | | | While the surgery is not a painful one, neck dissections do require a long incision so as to obtain access to the different levels in the neck while still sparing some of the vital structures in the neck. | | | Rarely, we will perform an extended neck dissection, in which other structures are resected if they are affected by gross disease, in addition to the structures described above. |
