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).

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.

Robotic‐Assisted Extended Sistrunk Approach (RESA) for Salvage Surgery After Head and Neck Irradiation

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The robotic‐assisted extended “Sistrunk” approach (RESA) is a minimally invasive technique providing access to hypopharyngeal and laryngeal structures via a submental incision and vallecular pharyngotomy, bypassing the base of tongue.

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

Influence of anaesthesia on the immune status of patients with malignant neoplasms in oropharyngeal region

open access: yesYAKUT MEDICAL JOURNAL
The immune system, as the main factor in protecting the body from the action of infectious, viral agents, as well as performing anticancer surveillance, undergoes a number of negative changes during surgery. With surgical intervention that causes a stress response and the effects of anesthetics, immunosuppression is formed, which in turn reduces the ...

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.

Exploring the Effects of Frailty and Sarcopenia on Dysphagia in Head and Neck Cancer: A Scoping Review

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty and sarcopenia may influence head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment outcomes, including dysphagia. Current understanding of this relationship, however, remains limited. This scoping review aimed to synthesize existing evidence on the relationship between frailty and/or sarcopenia and dysphagia in adults with HNC.

[Branchiogenic carcinoma: cystic metastases from oropharyngeal primary neoplasm].

open access: yesOtolaryngologia polska = The Polish otolaryngology, 1996
This study deals with an inconsistency concerning the existence of branchiogenic carcinoma. The data from the literature dealing with lateral cervical (branchial) cyst and branchiogenic carcinoma are presented. There are growing evidence that branchiogenic carcinoma in in fact cystic metastases from oropharyngeal carcinoma, most commonly tonsillar ...
