Mechanistic Learning for Predicting Survival Outcomes in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 540-550, March 2025.
ABSTRACT We employed a mechanistic learning approach, integrating on‐treatment tumor kinetics (TK) modeling with various machine learning (ML) models to address the challenge of predicting post‐progression survival (PPS)—the duration from the time of documented disease progression to death—and overall survival (OS) in Head and Neck Squamous Cell ...

Endoscope‐assisted resection of second branchial cleft fistula via the anterior chest approach

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Traditional resection of second branchial cleft fistulas (SBCFs) involves a transcervical incision in the neck, which leaves a prominent scar; therefore, endoscope‐assisted excision of SBCFs through the anterior chest approach has been proposed. To introduce endoscope‐assisted excision of SBCFs via the anterior chest approach and to

Vascular Supply of Laryngeal Paragangliomas: Case Report and Systematic Review

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Laryngeal paragangliomas are rare, highly vascularized, neuroendocrine tumors. Although surgical resection of these vascular neoplasms is associated with a known risk of significant hemorrhage, the vascular supply of laryngeal paragangliomas has been poorly characterized. Data Sources MEDLINE Ovid, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar.
