Hemiglossectomy, surgical removal of half of the tongue, is one of the procedures for tongue cancer management. Surgery followed with supraomohyoid neck dissection (SOHND) is suggested to treat regional metastasis. SOHND is a selective neck dissection indicated for patients with T2, T3 tongue cancer in which cervical lymph nodes are clinically negative (N0) or N1. A 62-year-old female with the main complaint of mass on the left part of the tongue that she experienced for the past six months. The history of betel fruit chewing was confirmed. Physical examination showed a mass on the two-third posterior left tongue with a size of 4x4cm, DOI 11 mm, and enlargement on left cervical lymph node 2x1x0.5cm, mobile and painless. The histopathology result of the biopsy revealed an invasive keratinising squamous cell carcinoma, and Oropharynx-CT Scan showed a heterogeneous mass enhancement with a size of lesion 1.0x2.4cm, irregular border, lesion seemed not extended to genioglossus muscle yet, enlargement of cervical lymph node 2.7 and 1.3cm, the density of bone was normal.Hemiglossectomy is the main treatment for T3N1M0 tongue cancer, and radiotherapy should be considered as adjuvant therapy for a better prognosis.
