The submaxillary salivary gland is closely connectedand often metastasizes. There is an anastomosis between the lymphaticswhich drain both sides of the lower lip as well as those draining thecentral portion. This must be remembered when radiating the lymphat-ics of the neck. The deep cervical chain extends from the mastoidprocess to the clavicle; some of the glands lie behind the internal jugu-lar and subclavian veins and cannot be reached surgically without theremoval of the jugular. The cervical glands metastasize from the Radix; M 71. Epithelioma of the lower lip unsuccess-fully treated by x-ray, carbon dioxidernd various kinds of pastes.
