ABSTRACT Background Postoperative radiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC); however, the indication for neck irradiation (NI) in pN0 patients remains debatable. We evaluated whether the omission of NI compromises outcomes in pT3–T4 pN0 patients treated with adequate neck dissection (ND).

ABSTRACT Background Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) lacks an established screening program, and most cases are diagnosed at advanced stages. Multi‐cancer early detection (MCED) blood‐based assays represent a promising approach, yet real‐world clinical experience with MCED‐identified HNSCC remains limited.
