Cutaneous malignancies are the most common causes of cancer in the United States, and the preponderance occur in the head and neck region. From 0.3% to 13.7% of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas and from 0.0028% to 0.4% of cutaneous basal cell carcinomas metastasize to the cervical nodes. A description of the head and neck cutaneous lymphatic drainage is presented, followed by recommendations regarding neck dissection modifications appropriate to the primary sites and nodal eschalons involved.
