Oncologic Safety of Facial‐Vessel–Based Buccinator Myomucosal Flaps for Tongue and Oral Floor Reconstruction: A Retrospective Multicenter Case–Control Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Buccinator myomucosal flaps (BMFs) have been proposed as a reconstructive solution for defects of the tongue and oral floor; however, their harvest requires preservation of the facial artery and vein. This study aimed to evaluate the oncologic safety of this approach compared with free fasciocutaneous flaps (FFF).

Quality of Life After Surgical Treatment of Head and Neck Paragangliomas

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck paragangliomas (HNPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors and often arise in the head and neck. Due to their localization, the tumor and its surgical treatment pose a risk for cranial nerve impairments. Few studies have focused on the health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with HNPGLs and their relation to ...

Postoperative Adjuvant Therapy in Resectable Advanced Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma With Intermediate Risk Factors

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative adjuvant therapy strategies are generally determined based on pathological risk stratification in oral cancer. However, the efficacy of postoperative adjuvant therapy in patients with intermediate‐risk factors for recurrence of oral cancer such as close surgical margins, pT3–T4 classification, pN2–N3 nodal status ...

Leiomyosarcoma of the base of the tongue and free edge of the epiglottis: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2012
Introduction We present the case of a man with a leiomyosarcoma of the base of the tongue. We feel this case is important as this kind of pathology, though rare, can occur at a site where carcinomas are more frequent.

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
