概要 Objective. To clarify whether intraoral ultrasonography (I-US) iseffective for predicting metastasis of tongue cancer to the cervical lymph nodes. Study Design. Participants comprised 29 patients with tongue carcinoma classified as T1-T4 using the TNM staging system. All patients underwent I-US preoperatively. Postoperatively, resected specimens were evaluated histopathologically. Results. I-US found that cases with invasive depth ≥3 mm had higher potential for cervical lymph node metastasis than those with invasive depth&lt3 mm (P&lt.05). No other significant relationships were identified between observations on I-US and cervical lymph node metastasis. Cases with histopathologic blood vessel infiltration or lymph duct infiltration had a significant difference in risk of cervical lymph node metastasis. Conclusions. I-US is useful for preoperatively assessing the invasive depth of tongue carcinoma. Furthermore, observations from I-US and invasive depth of the tumor allowed presumptive diagnosis with regard to cervical lymph node metastasis. © 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
