Objective: Preoperative ultrasound-guided breast cancer detection was developed in the 1980s for non-palpable breast cancers. This technique was applied to neck surgery in 5 specific cases.
Methods: Retrospective study to assess the efficacy and safety of this technique.
Results: The mean surgical time was 35.2 ± 15.2 min. There were no complications of this percutaneous target location procedure. All surgical procedures allowed easy target retrieval without any complications. All targets were later confirmed to be the site of cancer.
Conclusion: This adaptation of a senology technique to the head and neck region allows us to improve neck procedures by enhancing diagnostic precision, safety, and surgical efficiency.
