Lymph node removal: Cancer of the throat sometimes spreads to the lymph nodes in the neck. If such spreading seems likely, then removing the lymph nodes might be recommended. This operation is called a neck dissection, and is usually done at the same time as surgery to remove an already existing tumor.
Filtering lymph. The lymph is filtered by lymph nodes, which are examples of encapsulated lymphoid tissue. There are around 100-200 of these which mostly occur in the neck, thorax, abdomen and pelvis. They contain B-and T-cells, which mostly enter the nodes via the blood stream, and also contains macrophages.
