Clinical, Radiologic and Cytologic Predictors of Malignancy in Pediatric Thyroid Nodules: Insights From a 26‐Year Cohort Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Thyroid nodules are less common but more often malignant in pediatric patients than in adults. Our objectives were to study the features of benign vs. malignant thyroid nodules in a large pediatric patient cohort. Methods Retrospective observational cohort study. Consecutive patients aged 0.01–17.9 years at evaluation between 1997–

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 ...

Strain and Shear Wave Elastography in Thyroid Nodules: Tissue Stiffness as a Complementary Risk Marker for Differentiating Benign, Indeterminate, and Malignant Cytology

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) and strain elastography (SE) as complementary techniques to conventional B‐mode ultrasound for differentiating benign, indeterminate, and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional study included 208 thyroid nodules evaluated using B‐mode

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

open access: yesHead &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.

Treatment Outcomes in Osteosarcoma of the Head and Neck: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck osteosarcomas (HNOS) are rare, accounting for ~1% of head and neck malignancies. This study systematically evaluated the role of chemotherapy (CT) and radiotherapy (RT) on survival outcomes. Methods A systematic review and meta‐analysis were performed following PRISMA guidelines across six databases.

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 ...

Pattern of Failure in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma After Radiotherapy in a Low‐Incidence Population: A DAHANCA Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is uncommon in many populations. Most existing clinical evidence comes from endemic areas, where Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)‐associated subtypes predominate. We analyzed patterns of failure in a population‐based cohort from Denmark, a low‐incidence setting.
