Head and Neck Oncology Surgery

Our hospital’s Department of Head and Neck Oncology Surgery developed from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, founded in 1917, and is now a national key discipline, primarily conducting clinical prevention and treatment as well as basic research in head and neck tumors, the repair and reconstruction of defects of the oral and maxillofacial organs, salivary gland diseases, and facial trauma. It was the first in China to implement techniques such as individualized comprehensive sequential treatment of malignant head and neck tumors (including carcinomas and sarcomas), high-dose brachytherapy, gene therapy and biotherapy, microwave therapy, local selective drug-injection therapy, optimized repair of soft-tissue defects, bone-graft repair, function-preserving parotid surgery, and rigid internal fixation for jaw fractures, along with other techniques.
