In contrast to the original neck dissection technique, the spinal accessory nerve is routinely sacrificed in the so-called classical neck dissection. The benefit of this routine has never been documented; on the contrary, facts have accumulated that indicate that the nerve should be preserved. The results in this article serve to emphasize this opinion. Of 80 patients who underwent radical neck dissection that preserved the spinal accessory nerve, the potential for cure was not jeopardized in a single case.
与最初的颈部清扫技术不同，在所谓的经典颈部清扫术中，副神经通常会被牺牲掉。这种常规做法的益处从未得到过证实；相反，越来越多的事实表明该神经应该被保留。本文的研究结果进一步强调了这一观点。在80例接受保留副神经的根治性颈部清扫术的患者中，没有一例患者的治愈可能性受到影响。
