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 ...
