Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) of Previously Unirradiated Mucosal Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in previously untreated primary mucosal head and neck cancer (HNC) patients unfit for conventional radiation therapy. Materials and Methods Retrospective analysis of previously unirradiated primary SCC mucosal HNC patients treated with SBRT from 2011 to ...

Early Feasibility of Registration of Micro‐PET/CT Scans to Annotated 3D Specimen Models

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intraoperative 18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) micro‐positron emission tomography/computed tomography (micro‐PET/CT) is an emerging modality for margin assessment. Prior to clinical use, micro‐PET/CT margin distances must be correlated with gold‐standard histopathology.

Superior Labial Artery Mucosal Flap (SLAM) for Reconstruction of Major Lower Lip Mucosal Defects

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The superior labial artery mucosal (SLAM) flap is a versatile, pedicled axial flap ideally suited for mucosal lining in lower lip reconstruction. Methods This article details the surgical anatomy and technique of the SLAM flap, highlighting its role as a standalone liner or mucosal adjunct to microvascular free tissue transfer in ...

Botulinum Toxin for First Bite Syndrome: A Symptom‐Guided “Follow‐The‐Pain” Injection Strategy

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To evaluate botulinum toxin type A (BoNT‐A) for First Bite Syndrome (FBS) and assess a symptom‐guided “Follow‐the‐Pain” (FTP) injection strategy in patients with incomplete response to standard treatment. Methods Consecutive patients with postoperative FBS were treated with ultrasound‐guided intraparotid BoNT‐A injection.

Swallowing‐Related Quality of Life After Carotid Body Tumor Resection: A Longitudinal Trajectory Analysis

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify longitudinal swallowing‐related QoL trajectories after carotid body tumor (CBT) resection and explore associated characteristics. Methods A prospective study assessed swallowing‐related QoL using the MD Anderson Dysphagia Inventory at nine timepoints from preoperation to 12 months postdischarge.

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

open access: yesHead &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

Preoperative Prediction of Cervical Lymph Node Metastasis in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Using Arterial Enhancement Fraction Derived From Dual‐Layer Spectral CT

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of arterial enhancement fraction (AEF) derived from dual‐layer detector spectral CT (DLCT) in preoperative assessment of cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), and to compare its performance with other spectral CT quantitative parameters and conventional CT ...

Head and Neck Lymph Node Metastases From Cancer of Unknown Primary: Outcomes From p16‐Guided Mucosal Radiotherapy

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The AJCC 8th edition distinguishes p16‐positive oropharyngeal head and neck carcinoma of unknown primary (HNCUP) due to its superior prognosis. However, standardized radiation volume guidelines are lacking. This study evaluates the safety of p16‐guided mucosal volume reduction.

Transoral Robotic Surgery for Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Glossotonsillar Sulcus Involvement Conveys an Unfavorable Oncological Outcome

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is widely used in management of early‐stage primary oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Tumors involving the glossotonsillar sulcus (GTS) are hypothesized to confer worse oncological outcomes compared to those situated in the rest of the oropharynx, with a paucity of evidence to support ...

Bone‐Anchored Implant Survival in Oncologic Facial Prosthetic Rehabilitation

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Published survival rates for bone‐anchored craniofacial implants exceed 85%, but derive largely from mixed populations. Whether these apply to head and neck oncologic surgery remains uncertain. Methods Retrospective survival analysis of implants placed for prosthetic rehabilitation following extirpative surgery at a UK center (2005 ...
