Treatment Outcomes of Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Soft Palate and the Prognostic Significance of HPV/p16 Status

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Squamous cell carcinoma of the soft palate (SCCSP) represents a rare subtype of oropharyngeal cancer. This study aims to evaluate the treatment outcomes of SCCSP and to assess the prognostic significance of HPV status. Methods Patients diagnosed with SCCSP between January 1981 and December 2021 were collected. Survival outcomes were

Instant Intraoperative Histopathological Assessment of Fresh Parathyroid Tissue: Higher Harmonic Generation Microscopy as a Potential Alternative to Frozen Section

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypoparathyroidism is a complication associated with significant morbidity and results from inadvertent removal of the parathyroid during thyroid surgery. Therefore, intra‐operative identification of parathyroid tissue is essential to minimize the risk of hypoparathyroidism.

Bilateral Thyroid Ima Arteries Arising From the Brachiocephalic Trunk: A First Case Report

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Bilateral thyroid ima artery (TIA) arising from the brachiocephalic trunk is an extremely rare anatomical variation, with no prior cases reported. Recognizing such vascular anomalies is crucial for optimizing surgical outcomes in thyroid and mediastinal procedures, as failure to identify these variations can lead to severe ...

Differences in PD‐L1, PD‐L2, and EGFR Expression Between Naive and Recurrent Tumors in Patients With Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The efficacy of anti‐PD‐1 and EGFR therapies for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) can be predicted using various markers; however, the stability of these markers remains unclear. Methods In this retrospective study, laboratory findings and tissue expression of PD‐L1, PD‐L2, and EGFR were analyzed in 79 paired naive and ...

Accurate and Efficient Detection of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Using Multi‐Dimensional Features of Plasma Cell‐Free DNA

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The incidence of Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is rising in recent years, especially in some non‐developed parts of the world. Hence, cost‐efficient means for sensitive detection of NPC are vital. Methods We recruited 646 participants, including healthy individuals, patients with benign nasopharyngeal diseases, and NPC patients for

HPV‐Positive Squamous Cell Carcinoma Metastasis Without Clinical Evidence of Primary: The Posterior Oropharyngeal Wall May Be an Overlooked Location

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can present as cancer of unknown primary, where only cervical lymph node metastases are identified. Most tumors, particularly human‐papillomavirus‐associated ones, are located in the palatine/lingual tonsils.

Acoustic Features of Airway Protective Maneuvers as Biomarkers of Radiation‐Associated Dysphagia and Penetration/Aspiration in Head and Neck Cancer Patients

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed at identifying acoustic features of airway protective maneuvers as biomarkers of radiation‐associated dysphagia, involving penetration/aspiration and pharyngeal residue. Methods Temporal and spectral acoustical analyses were carried out on voluntary coughs, voluntary throat clearings, and reflexive coughs.
