Safe Omission of Postoperative Neck Irradiation in Selected pN0 Patients With Locally Advanced Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative radiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC); however, the indication for neck irradiation (NI) in pN0 patients remains debatable. We evaluated whether the omission of NI compromises outcomes in pT3–T4 pN0 patients treated with adequate neck dissection (ND).

Simple Epithelial Hypopharyngeal Cyst Presenting as Acute Airway Obstruction in a Three-Year-Old Child: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Hypopharyngeal cysts are a rare cause of pediatric upper airway obstruction and may present acutely, even in previously asymptomatic children. Early endoscopic evaluation is essential in children with stridor and unexplained airway compromise, as prompt surgical excision can be both diagnostic and curative.

The Role of Multicancer Early Detection Tests in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Case Series

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) lacks an established screening program, and most cases are diagnosed at advanced stages. Multi‐cancer early detection (MCED) blood‐based assays represent a promising approach, yet real‐world clinical experience with MCED‐identified HNSCC remains limited.

A rare, large, well-differentiated liposarcoma in the hypopharynx of a female: A case report

open access: yes, 2019
A liposarcoma is a common soft tissue sarcoma found in adults; however, liposarcomas in the hypopharynx are extremely rare. Here, we report a large liposarcoma originating from the piriform sinus in a female; this is the fifth reported liposarcoma of the

Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control

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 ...

Sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma of the hypopharynx: A case report

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Medicine and Medical Sciences, 2019
Burkitt's lymphoma is a rapidly growing, high-grade B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has three distinct variants. Of these, sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma most frequently involves the gastrointestinal system, and the hypopharynx is a rare site of occurrence.

A Discharge Summary Prompt Reduces Postoperative Radiotherapy Delay in Head and Neck Cancer Patients

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Delays in postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) beyond 6 weeks are associated with worse outcomes in head and neck cancer (HNC). This study evaluated whether a discharge summary prompt could reduce PORT delay. Methods A retrospective review of patients from 2018 to 2023 was used as a pre‐intervention baseline.

Usefulness of a dedicated mouthpiece for the Valsalva maneuver to visualize the hypopharynx during transoral endoscopy

open access: yesEndoscopy International Open, 2020
Background and study aims Patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are at high risk of developing second primary SCCs in the hypopharynx. However, such second primary tumors are difficult to observe because of lumen closure.

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.
