Predictive modelling of level IIb lymph node metastasis in oral squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract The aim of the present study was to examine the conditions, characteristics, and risk factors of level IIb lymph node metastases in oral squamous cell carcinoma and to formulate surgical criteria for level IIb lymph node dissection. We analyzed clinical and pathological records for 541 oral...
