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

open access: yesHead &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 ...

Hypofractionated Spot Scanning Proton Therapy for Head and Neck Mucosal Melanoma: A Retrospective Analysis With Quality‐of‐Life Outcome

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate clinical outcomes and quality of life (QOL) following hypofractionated spot‐scanning proton therapy (SSPT) for head and neck malignant mucosal melanoma (HNMM). Methods This retrospective study included 39 patients treated with SSPT (60–64 Gy[RBE] in 15–16 fractions) between 2013 and 2023.

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

open access: yesHead &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

open access: yesHead &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.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Following Head and Neck Chemoradiation: A Scoping Review With Exploratory Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may contribute to fatigue in head and neck cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy, particularly as both have the potential to impact the mechanics and dynamics of the airway.

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

open access: yesHead &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.

Oncological Outcomes of Salvage Oropharyngectomy in Irradiated Neck for Recurrent or Metachronous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate oncological outcomes and their predictors following salvage oropharyngectomy. Methods This single‐center retrospective study included patients who underwent a salvage oropharyngectomy in an irradiated neck for recurrent or metachronous oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) between 2014 and 2023.

Endometrial Stromal Cell Senescence: A Non‐Negligible Factor in Recurrent Pregnancy Loss

open access: yesiMetaMed, EarlyView.
As populations age, links between female reproductive aging and infertility are increasingly evident. Cellular senescence, characterized by near‐irreversible cell‐cycle arrest and accumulation of damage, can impair tissue function. In the endometrium, aberrant senescence of endometrial stromal cells (EnSCs) may compromise receptivity, hinder embryo ...

Transoral Robotic Surgery in Retrostyloid Parapharyngeal Space Schwannomas

open access: yesCase Reports in Otolaryngology, 2014
Parapharyngeal space (PPS) tumors are very rare, representing about 0.5% of head and neck neoplasms. An external surgical approach is mainly used. Several recent papers show how transoral robotic surgery (TORS) excision could be a prospective tool to ...
