Timing for Radiotherapy Initiation After Dental Extraction and Risk of Osteoradionecrosis in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck cancer (HNC) patients are advised to undergo dental extraction of teeth with poor prognosis prior to radiotherapy (RT) initiation to prevent osteoradionecrosis (ORN). However, insufficient healing time may result in persistent extraction wounds during RT, which constitute a potential risk factor for ORN, whereas ...

Urinary complications following Bricker urinary diversion in gynecologic cancer: A retrospective analysis of 77 cases

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Uretero‐ileal stricture is a common complication of Bricker urinary diversion in gynecologic cancer, affecting 30% of 77 patients. Preoperative nephrostomy, chronic radiation enteritis, and prior chemotherapy increased the risk, while preoperative ureteral stenting was protective with no effect on overall survival.
