Abstract
There has been a great deal of controversy regarding the appropriate method of management of oral cavity and oropharyngeal tumors that invade the mandible. The inability to acquire intraoperative bone margins can make the decision process complex. Preoperative imaging offers several advantages, however, there is no single modality that has proven accurate. Intraoperative assessment has been suggested as a method of evaluation, however, this approach does not allow for preoperative planning. The following is a review of the current literature regarding mandibular invasion and the indications for a marginal mandibulectomy.Entities:
