B & C. Schematic illustrations demonstrate the ipsilateral (B) and contralateral (C) nodal groups most likely at risk for developing nodal metastases from a lateralized supraglottic carcinoma. On the ipsilateral side, Groups II and III are at greatest risk for developing nodal metastases. The group at highest risk for metastases on the contralateral side is Group II.
