Transoral Robotic Surgery for Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Glossotonsillar Sulcus Involvement Conveys an Unfavorable Oncological Outcome

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is widely used in management of early‐stage primary oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Tumors involving the glossotonsillar sulcus (GTS) are hypothesized to confer worse oncological outcomes compared to those situated in the rest of the oropharynx, with a paucity of evidence to support ...

Clearance of high‐risk human papillomavirus in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2–3 after the loop electrosurgical excision procedure with negative resection margins

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aims to evaluate the longitudinal clearance rates of high‐risk human papillomavirus (hr‐HPV) and the incidence of clinical recurrence (defined by abnormal cytology or histologically confirmed cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; CIN) at 6 and 18 months post‐loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP), characterizing the ...

Impact of Co‐Morbid Immunocompromise in HPV‐Associated Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Among patients with surgically resected Human Papillomavirus positive (HPV+) oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), immunocompromised patients had significantly worse overall survival compared to the non‐compromised group; however, these exploratory findings should be interpreted cautiously.

Eustachian Tube Opening in Children With and Without Cleft Palate and Association With Otitis Media

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Using transnasal endoscopy in 50 children, structural abnormalities of the torus tubarius—particularly the posterior lip—were significantly more common in children with cleft palate than in those without (52% vs. 20%). Adenoid size, dynamic Eustachian tube opening visibility, and the Eustachian Tube Inflammation Scale correlated with middle ear status ...

Thyroid Cartilage Reconstruction With Titanium Mesh in Advanced Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We report the first case of titanium mesh reconstruction of the thyroid cartilage following resection of papillary thyroid carcinoma with preservation of the laryngeal mucosa. This technique provided excellent functional outcomes while maintaining oncologic resection in a patient with locally advanced disease.
