Patterns of Cervical Metastases and Implications for Neck Management in Minor Salivary Gland Cancer Treatment

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Minor salivary gland cancer (MiSGC) is a rare and heterogeneous disease, with different degrees of tumor aggressiveness. The scarce data in the literature show that the presence of lymph node metastases (LNMs) negatively impacts the prognosis.

Risk of Occult Contralateral Neck Metastasis in Early‐Stage HPV‐Related Lateralized Cancer of the Base of the Tongue

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives (1) To determine the incidence of occult contralateral cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with early‐stage HPV‐associated base‐of‐tongue (BOT) oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) treated with primary surgery; and (2) to compare survival and recurrence in patients who did and did not undergo contralateral neck ...

Disparities in Proton Radiation Utilization for HPV‐Associated Oropharyngeal Cancer Following TORS

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Racial, socioeconomic, and geographic disparities in receipt of proton radiation have been reported. Whether disparities exist for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is not well studied. Methods Patients with HPV‐associated OPSCC treated with transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and adjuvant radiation from 2016 to 2023 were

Efficacy of Multimodal Work‐Up of Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Lymph Node Metastasis of Unknown Primary

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) often presents with cervical lymph node metastasis, with 1%–4% of cases presenting as cancer of unknown primary (CUP). CUP poses diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and is linked to poorer survival outcomes.

Geographic and Institutional Patterns of Transoral Robotic Surgery in Head and Neck Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is increasingly used for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), yet national patterns of TORS availability for Medicare beneficiaries are not well defined. We characterized hospital type, geographic distribution, and market concentration of TORS.

Ultrasonic Image Characteristics of Palatine Tonsils in Healthy Children and Analysis of Factors Influencing Image Quality

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 436-444, March/April 2025.
The ultrasound detection rate of the palatine tonsils in children was good. There are characteristic ultrasonic image manifestations. Tonsil ultrasound image quality is affected by individual and local factors. ABSTRACT Objective To explore the ultrasonic image characteristics of palatine tonsils in healthy children and the factors affecting image ...
