Abstract

The article is devoted to the actual problem of ensuring a radical surgical treatment of patients with tumors of oropharyngeal zone. We analyzed initial nutritional status of patients and its dynamics at the stages of preparation and implementation of major surgery. Developed and presented in the form of a flow chart of nutritional support on an outpatient and inpatient. We present the our own results, which show a decrease in the number of postoperative complications, and hospital stay-days due to the use of the developed algorithm.
