B & C. Schematic illustrations demonstrate the ipsilateral (B) and contralateral (C) nodal groups most likely at risk for developing nodal metastases from lateral oral tongue carcinomas. On the ipsilateral side, Group II is most likely at risk for developing nodal metastases. There is less than a 15% likelihood of metastases for contralateral nodal Groups I - V.
