Unilateral tonsillar hypertrophy masquerading as malignant neoplasm: Actinomycosis – The Culprit

International Archives of Health Sciences, 2018
Actinomycosis is an infrequent bacterial infection encountered nowadays, caused by anaerobic Gram-negative bacterium of Actinomyces species. We report an unusual case of a unilateral tonsillar hypertrophy in a 40-year-old male, caused by actinomycosis masquerading as malignant tumor.

The Role of Multicancer Early Detection Tests in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Case Series

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) lacks an established screening program, and most cases are diagnosed at advanced stages. Multi‐cancer early detection (MCED) blood‐based assays represent a promising approach, yet real‐world clinical experience with MCED‐identified HNSCC remains limited.

The Growth Supporting Role of ZDHHC11 Is Linked to the MEF2B–BCL6 Regulatory Circuit in Burkitt Lymphoma

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
MEF2B and BCL6 have established functions in germinal center B‐cell biology and lymphomagenesis. The mechanism of MEF2B deregulation and its significance for cell survival in Burkitt lymphoma however remain unclear. This study highlights MEF2B as a crucial transcription factor in Burkitt lymphoma and suggests ZDHHC11 as an upstream regulator of MEF2B ...

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.

Nanopore Sequencing for HPV in Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Benign Tonsil Specimens

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Human papillomavirus (HPV) accounts for the majority of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) cases in the United States but understanding the prevalence of high‐risk HPV in oropharyngeal tissue remains poor. We evaluated nanopore sequencing, a novel rapid, and long‐read sequencing platform, on OPSCC tissue and tested it in ...
