Twelve‐Month Outcomes of a Preventive Dysphagia Intervention in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer—A Randomized Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Radiation‐associated dysphagia is common after radiotherapy for head and neck cancer and may occur early or years later. The effect of preventive exercises might be undermined by poor adherence. Aim To evaluate the effect of a simple preventive exercise protocol on swallowing function up to 12 months after radiotherapy.

Current Evidence on Best Practice Dental Survivorship Care for People With Head and Neck Cancer: An Overview of Systematic Reviews and Emerging Evidence

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Head and neck cancer (HNC) survival is improving, increasing the need to address long‐term survivorship issues. Dental survivorship—care before, during, and after treatment—remains inconsistent across services. We conducted a review of systematic reviews and emerging evidence to inform contemporary dental survivorship care for HNC

Trismus and Health‐Related Quality of Life in HNC Patients up to 10 Years Post‐Radiotherapy Completion

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This prospective study investigates trismus prevalence, quality of life (QOL), and trismus‐related symptoms in HNC patients up to 10 years post‐radiotherapy (RT). Methods A total of 211 patients with HNC receiving RT were followed pretreatment, 12, 60, and 120 months post‐RT.

Predictors of Delayed and Omitted Postoperative Radiotherapy After Laryngectomy for pT4 Laryngeal Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) improves locoregional control and survival in high‐risk head and neck cancer, and guidelines recommend initiation within 42 days of surgery. Timeliness after laryngectomy for pathologic T4 (pT4) laryngeal cancer is poorly characterized.

The Association Between Muscle Health and Quality of Life in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer: A Systematic Review

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) are at risk of impaired muscle health due to metabolic disturbances, reduced nutritional intake, and treatment‐related toxicities. Because muscle health supports physical capacity and independence, its decline may affect quality of life (QoL).
