  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Ultrasonography (US) is a very useful examina-tion to evaluate cervical lymphnode metastases in head and neck cancer. The author reported a case of supraglottic laryngeal carcinoma with bilateral cervical lymphnode metastases (T2N2cM0) and discussed the utility and the problem of US.

US was an essential tool in the accurate staging of lymphnode metastases, because US proved more reliablthan palpation, CT and MRI for evaluating the location and size of lymphnodes.

But the major limitations of US included the differentiation of metastatic from non-metastatic nodes when the size of lymphnode detected by US was small.
