ABSTRACT Locally advanced head and neck cancers are usually treated with concurrent chemoradiation. The residual nodes after chemoradiation in such patients are a common scenario, but the further investigation and treatment options in form of neck dissection are still not very clear. This review focuses on the current state of available evidence in literature for management of such patients and directs for the future development to fill the lacunae.
