Viability of Tumor Cells in Bone Dust: Implications for Oncologic Skull Base Surgery

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck tumors with skull base involvement may require drilling of tumor infiltrated bone. We hypothesize that bone dust generated during this process contains viable tumor cells that may seed the surgical field. Methods Tumors with gross bone invasion were drilled, and dust was collected for H&E, cell viability analysis, and ...

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

Head &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 ...

Postoperative Hemoglobin and Transfusion Rates Do Not Influence Revision of Head and Neck Free Flap in a Cohort of 259 Patients

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Recent literature advocates restrictive transfusion thresholds (Hb < 7 g/dL). The aim of this study was to evaluate if postoperative hemoglobin levels and transfusions influence Free Flap Revision (FFR). Methods This single center retrospective study included all patients who underwent head and neck surgery with free flap ...
