Abstract

Background: This article projects provides insights to the various managements and treatment strategies for chylous leak during the head and neck cancer surgeries.

Methods: Here the retrospective review of articles was performed, the articles reviewed are involving only head and neck cancer surgeries only and analysis of treatment strategies were noted and author’s comments about the treatment strategies is given after collective analysis of the review articles

Conclusion: The evolution of treatment strategies through years has brought on to the ideal management of the of chyle leak based on various authors guidelines.
