My radiation and chemo ended on March 15th. I had a partial/modified/selective neck dissection on the 24th of May. For some reason, I seem to recall my ENT telling me that the neck dissection needed to be done within 100 days after treatment for optimal results. I didn't bother to ask why . . .
Hope that helps.
