What is Histopathological examination of Hemimandibulectomy With RND / MND?

This test involves the microscopic examination of tissue removed during a hemimandibulectomy (removal of half of the lower jaw) often combined with a radical or modified neck dissection (RND/MND), which removes lymph nodes and other tissues from the neck. A pathologist analyzes these tissues to diagnose and stage cancers, especially those affecting the head and neck region.

Why is this test important?

This examination is critical for accurately diagnosing head and neck cancers, determining their extent, and assessing if cancer has spread to lymph nodes. The findings guide further treatment decisions, such as radiation or chemotherapy, and help predict the patient's prognosis.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required from the patient for the pathology examination itself, as the tissue is collected during a surgical procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to fast before my blood test?
It depends on the test. Tests like lipid profile and fasting blood sugar require 10-12 hours of fasting. Tests like CBC, vitamin D, and thyroid do not require fasting. Each test page on our website clearly states the fasting requirements.
