Oncological Outcomes of Salvage Oropharyngectomy in Irradiated Neck for Recurrent or Metachronous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Head &Neck, Volume 48, Issue 6, Page 1668-1676, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate oncological outcomes and their predictors following salvage oropharyngectomy. Methods This single‐center retrospective study included patients who underwent a salvage oropharyngectomy in an irradiated neck for recurrent or metachronous oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) between 2014 and 2023.

Prognostic Value of Impaired Vocal Cord Mobility in T2N0 Glottic Cancer Treated With IMRT

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 6, Page 2605-2613, June 2026.
T2N0M0 glottic cancers with impaired vocal cord mobility (VCM) have worse outcomes than T2N0M0 tumors with normal VCM, but still fare better than T3N0M0 disease. These findings support subdivision of T2 glottic cancer into T2a (normal VCM) and T2b (impaired VCM) in future TNM revisions.

Osteoradionecrosis After Modern Radiotherapy for Oral Cavity Cancer: Incidence and Risk Factors

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 3, June 2026.
This retrospective single‐institution review evaluated contemporary ORN rates in 172 patients with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma treated exclusively with IMRT (2013–2022). Reported osteoradionecrosis (ORN) incidence after head and neck cancer IMRT is relatively low, however, the 3 year ORN incidence was 24% in this cohort and increased incidence ...

Impact of Intraprostatic Simultaneous Integrated Boost on Long‐Term Outcomes in Unfavorable Intermediate‐Risk Prostate Cancer Treated With Dose‐Escalated Radiotherapy and Short‐Term Androgen Deprivation Therapy

The Prostate, Volume 86, Issue 8, Page 961-969, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Unfavorable intermediate‐risk prostate cancer (UIR‐PCa) represents a biologically heterogeneous subgroup with a higher risk of recurrence compared with favorable intermediate‐risk disease. Contemporary management frequently includes dose‐escalated radiotherapy (RT) combined with short‐term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Whether
