Conservative surgical management of invasive differentiated thyroid cancer

The majority of well differentiated thyroid carcinoma are tumours of low grade malignancy. Laryngotracheal invasion by well differentiated thyroid carcinoma is an uncommon occurrence. The surgical management of patients with thyroid cancer invading the upper airway has primarily been by total laryngectomy. Other surgeons recommend in selected cases partial laryngeal and/or tracheal resection. A total of 122 patients with thyroid carcinoma were treated in our department between 1967 and 1982. Only seven patients with well differentiated tumours had airway invasion. In these seven patients we used a partial laryngeal and/or tracheal resection. In three of the patients with tracheal invasion a myoperichondrial flap was used for closing the tracheal defect. A partial resection of the larynx and trachea, and end to end anastomosis between the trachea and the remaining part of the larynx was performed in another four patients. The techniques used and a long-term follow-up are presented (Table I).     

喉气管腺样囊性癌10例临床分析

目的 探讨喉气管腺样囊性癌的临床特点、治疗方法及预后。方法 回顾性分析10例行喉气管腺样囊性癌的临床资料,根据UICC　2002年TNM分期标准,喉腺样囊性癌T1N0M0 1例,T2N0M0 1例,T3N0M0 3例;根据Bhattacharwa分期,气管腺样囊性癌T1N0M0 1例,T2N0M0 3例,T3N0M0 1例。10例患者临床上以喉痛、声嘶、咳嗽及进行性呼吸困难伴喘鸣等为主要表现形式,采取手术加术后辅助放疗的治疗模式。喉腺样囊性癌以喉全切除术和喉部分切除术为主,气管腺样囊性癌以气管袖状切除加端端吻合术为主。术后辅助放疗,采用调强放疗方式,总剂量 60～70Gy。结果 10例患者术后愈合好,无并发症,随访时间为2个月～7年不等,所有病例均未见局部复发及远处转移。结论 喉气管腺样囊性癌临床上以进行性呼吸困难伴喘鸣、咳嗽及声嘶为主,纤维喉镜检查有利于早期发现。该病颈淋巴转移率低,预后较好。根治性切除加术后辅助放疗是治疗喉气管腺样囊性癌的最佳方法。     

Carcinomas of the thyroid gland invading larynx and trachea

Twenty-nine patients with a thyroid carcinoma invading the larynx and trachea were treated over a 25-yr period. Eight patients had invasion of the walls of the trachea or larynx and 21 had invasion into the lumen. Of the 15 patients who underwent limited surgery, i.e. total thyroidectomy, tracheostomy and neck dissection, 8 had intraluminal invasion and 7 suffered from bleeding into the trachea or airway obstruction. In contrast, none of the 13 who underwent extensive surgery, i.e. thyroidectomy, laryngectomy, partial resection of the trachea and one resection of the pharynx, (12 of whom had intraluminal invasion) showed either bleeding into the trachea or airway obstruction. Although the prognosis was no better in the group undergoing extensive operation there is the feeling that in cases with intraluminal invasion extensive surgery is indicated to prevent the severe airway difficulties which often develop in such patients.     

严重颈部闭合性损伤致喉气管断裂的救治体会(附8例报告)

从1976年12月到1996年9月,我们救治了8例严重闭合性损伤致喉气管断裂的患者,男6例,女2例,年龄13～36岁,平均24岁。结果2例死亡,1例死于出血窒息,另1例尚未来得及手术而死亡;1例因救治不当发生喉气管狭窄而需进一步整复,其余5例恢复了喉的功能。强调在修复术中应最大限度地保留破碎的软骨膜、软骨和粘膜。本文重点讨论严重颈部闭合性损伤致喉气管断裂的发病机理、临床特点及急救原则。     

Traumatic laryngotracheal stenosis--an alternative surgical technique

Reconstruction of combined laryngotracheal stenosis requires complex techniques including resection and incorporation of grafts and stents that can be performed as single or multistaged procedure. A complicated case of traumatic laryngotracheal stenosis was managed by us, surgical technique is discussed. A 16-year-old male presented with Stage-3 laryngotracheal stenosis of grade-3 to 4 (>70% of the complete obstruction of tracheal lumen) of 5 cm segment of the larynx and trachea. Restoration of the critical functions of respiration and phonation was achieved in this patient by resection anastomosis of the trachea and with subglottic remodeling. Resection of 5 cm long segment of trachea and primary anastomosis in this case would have created tension at the site of anastomosis. So we did tracheal resection of 3 cm segment of trachea along with subglottic remodeling instead of removing the 5 cm segment of stenosed laryngotracheal region and doing thyrotracheal anastomosis. In complicated long segment, laryngotracheal stenosis, tracheal resection and subglottic remodeling with primary anastomosis can be an alternative approach. Fibrin glue can be used to support free bone/cartilage grafts in laryngotracheal reconstructions.

Window resection of the trachea and secondary reconstruction for invasion by differentiated thyroid carcinoma

Objective

In cases of differentiated thyroid carcinoma, the presence or absence of invasion into the circumferential organs is an important prognostic factor. Surgical procedures include circular resection of the trachea with end-to-end anastomosis and window resection with secondary closure. We have used window resection with secondary closure since 1993, and herein retrospectively analyze the treatment outcomes for this surgical procedure in order to determine the indications for procedure selection.

Methods

Subjects comprised 41 cases of invasion by differentiated thyroid carcinoma into the trachea, for which surgery was performed at the Department of Head and Neck Surgery of the National Cancer Center Hospital East from 1993 to 2007. The mean age was 65.7 ± 7.9 years, and the median length of the observation period was 43 months. There were 17 cases (41.4%) cases of secondary relapse.

Results

The 5-year and 10-year overall survival rates for this surgical procedure were 78.9% and 74.5%, respectively, while the 5-year and 10-year local control rates were 92.4% and 73.4%, respectively. The pathological resection stump was positive in 27 cases (65.8%), but no significant differences in treatment outcome were observed between the stump-positive group and the stump-negative group. There were 26 cases in which closure of the tracheal fistula was performed by the time of observation. When the tracheal defect had a diameter equivalent to 7 rings of the trachea or less and a circumference half that of the tracheal cartilage or smaller, including partial cricoid cartilage, it was possible to perform closure with only a local flap. For larger defects, reconstruction was performed using hard tissues or materials, such as hydroxyapatite, titanium mesh, and costal cartilage. There were 2 cases that required re-window because of dyspnea after closure.

Conclusion

The treatment outcomes for this surgical procedure for invasive cases of differentiated thyroid carcinoma into the trachea resulted in a low rate of local recurrence and similar survival rates as described in other reports. Even for cases of resection exceeding half the circumference of the trachea, closure of the tracheal fistula can be performed using hard tissues or materials; however, in such cases, we believe that closure should be attempted progressively in a two-stage reconstruction.

Circumferential resection of crico-tracheal stenosis with primary end-to-end anastomosis

Postintubation injury of the upper airway commonly results in stenotic lesions of the larynx, subglottis, and adjacent trachea. The traditional approach to surgical correction is staged plastic reconstruction. Reported results are variable and unpredictable, and permanent extubation is impossible in a significant number of patients. We present our experience with circumferential crico-tracheal resection with end-to-end anastomosis. Between 1991 and 2002 we performed this procedure on 29 patients with crico-tracheal stenosis. The cause of the stenosis was related to intubation and/or failed tracheotomy in 87% of the patients. Two to 7 tracheal rings were resected and a tension-free anastomosis was achieved with mobilization techniques that were limited to peritracheal dissection. The anastomosis success rate was 96%. Type of the anastomosis was tracheo-thyreopexy in six, tracheo-cricopexy in nine and tracheo-tracheopexy in eight cases. There were no major complications and no compromise of swallowing. This experience suggests that the procedure is relatively safe and effective.     

累及喉、气管的甲状腺乳头状癌临床治疗分析

目的 探讨累及喉、气管的甲状腺乳头状癌的临床治疗经验。 方法 回顾性分析2010年1月至2019年12月山东大学齐鲁医院耳鼻咽喉科收治的87例累及喉、气管的甲状腺乳头状癌患者的基本资料,统计分析其采用的肿瘤切除方式、气管修补方法、术后拔管率及3年和5年生存率。 结果 87例患者均进行了手术治疗,肿瘤切除方式包括:气管壁肿瘤锐性剃除(60例),气管壁楔形切除(15例),气管袖状切除(3例),喉部分切除(1例),全喉切除(4例),姑息切除(4例)。气道重建方法包括:拉拢缝合(5例),胸大肌肌皮瓣修补(1例),胸锁乳突肌锁骨骨膜瓣修补(1例),端端吻合(3例),喉成型术(1例),气管造瘘术(12例)。随访时间为4-122个月,随访到79例,其中15例行气管切开,气管切开术后拔管率66.7%(10/15),3年生存率为100%,5年生存率为93.0%。 结论 对于累及喉、气管的甲状腺乳头状癌,通过准确的术前评估和合理的手术治疗,可以显著改善患者生活质量,获得良好的生存期。     

Resection of tracheal stenosis with end to end anastomosis

The aim of the study was evaluation of early results of tracheal resection with end to end anastomosis. Tracheal resection was performed in 5 patients with tracheal stenosis resulting from prolonged intubation. Three patients were admitted without tracheostomy, in two patients tracheostomy was performed in another hospital. Diagnostic tracheoscopy was performed in all the patients and the tracheal stenosis was found in a distance of 2.5-4 cm from the vocal cords. The diameter of stenosis was 1-4 mm, and the length of stenosis was as long as 3-5 cartilages of trachea. Three cartilages were resected in one patient, 4 cartilages in two patients and 5 cartilages in two patients. End to end anastomosis was performed using absorbable sutures (Vicryl 2-0). The intubation tube was removed just after the surgery. Four patients had no complication after the operation and one patient had temporary subcutaneous emphysema in the neck. For 4-11 months follow up after operation all the patients have had good breathing. Tracheal resection with end to end anastomosis is effective method of treatment of tracheal stenosis.     

儿童喉气管狭窄的治疗

分析19年来42例儿童后天性喉气管狭窄，年龄自15个月到14岁，平均8岁。主要病因有气管切开术后；喉气管外伤；复发性喉乳头状瘤术后；气管内插管等。全部病例狭窄严重，依靠气管切开呼吸。采用不同的喉气管重建术。结果40例病人经1～18年随访，36例（90．0％）拔除气管套管，治愈。结论：①提高气管切开术技术，可以减少儿童喉气管狭窄发病率；②3岁以上儿童可以进行喉气管重建术；③手术方式的选择必须根据喉气管狭窄病变而定。     

Development of the larynx and trachea following division of the cricoid cartilage and segmental resection of the trachea in the growth stage. An animal experiment study

Laminotomy as described by Réthi, and segmental tracheal resection with end-to-end anastomosis have proved useful in the adult for the treatment of stenoses of the larynx. In children, the question arises why these may interfere with the growth of the larynx and trachea. A vertical split of the cricoid cartilage followed by stabilization of the larynx by the temporary introduction of a Montgomery silicone T-tube was carried out on four kittens aged four to six weeks. A segmental tracheal resection with end-to-end anastomosis was performed on other animals of the same age. When the animals had stopped growing, the larynx and trachea were investigated both endoscopically and histologically. Following laminotomy the larynx underwent remodelling, resulting in an oval shape, the lumen being wide and the function of the vocal cords normal. Following segmental resection of the trachea, a circular stenosis was found, as a result of irregular growth of the sutured tracheal cartilages. In none of the animals, however were either functional disorders or respiratory distress to be observed. Thus, laminotomy or segmental resection of the trachea can be employed during the formative years without fear of clinically relevant growth disorders.     

颈段气管袖状切除的临床应用

目的探讨有关颈段气管病变行气管袖状切除的治疗经验。方法介绍1995年1月~2000年12月5例涉及颈部气管病变的治疗方法和临床效果,5例中2例气管原发肿瘤;2例甲状腺肿瘤侵犯气管;1例颈部挤压伤气管闭锁。分别采用了颈段气管袖状切除,端端吻合手术。结果5例病例术后未发生气道狭窄和通气困难。结论颈段气管肿瘤或外源性肿瘤侵犯气管、外伤性气管闭锁,行气管袖状切除,端端吻合手术是重建和恢复气道最好的方法。     

复发性多软骨炎

目的提高对复发性多软骨炎(relapsingpoly-chondritis,RP)的认识和早期诊断水平。方法结合文献回顾分析34例RP临床病例资料,重点分析RP在耳鼻咽喉科方面的表现。结果全部34例均有耳、鼻、喉或气管等部位的受累表现,累及其中两处以上者27例(79%),以这几个部位的表现为首发症状或体征者鼻19例(56%),喉19例(56%),气管18例(53%),支气管18例(53%),关节或/和肋软骨22例(65%),眼部15例(44%)。首诊于耳鼻咽喉科者10例。首次发作确诊者仅13例(38%)。确诊前病情反复发作最多者达8次。结论RP的早期表现不典型,易误诊漏诊。早期确诊的关键是熟知该病的临床特点和诊断标准。     

Cricotracheal resection for pediatric subglottic stenosis

Until recently, cricotracheal resection (CTR) has not been commonly accepted as a treatment modality for severe subglottic stenosis in the pediatric age group. The reasons have included the risk of a possible dehiscence at the site of the anastomosis, the likelihood of injury to the recurrent laryngeal nerves, and the interference with normal growth of the larynx. Thirty-eight infants and children with a severe subglottic stenosis underwent a partial cricoid resection with primary thyrotracheal anastomosis. Thirty-three patients were tracheotomy-dependent at the time of surgery and 34 were referred cases; 27 were classified as grade III, and 10 as grade IV stenoses according to new Cotton's classification. Nineteen patients were younger than 3 years of age at the time of surgery. The tracheotomy was resected during the surgical procedure in 21 cases. Decannulation was achieved in 36/38 cases after an open procedure. There is one complete restenosis and one good result awaiting decannulation after further surgery for a Pierre Robin syndrome. The authors experienced no lesion of the recurrent laryngeal nerves and no fatality. Thirty-one patients show no exertional dyspnea, three a slight stridor while exercising, and two patients are not decannulated. The postoperative follow-up in longer than 10 years in eight cases. All patients show a normal growth of the larynx and trachea. Compared to laryngotracheoplasties, CTR gives better results for severe subglottic stenosis. This operation should become the treatment of choice for severe (grade III and IV) subglottic stenosis in infants and children.     

Analysis of outcome of free jejunal-autograft for head and neck reconstruction--postoperative complications and functional results of swallowing in 49 cases

We evaluated postoperative results in 49 patients (39 men, 10 women) who underwent pharyngoesophageal reconstruction with free-jejunal autograft following total pharyngolaryngoesophagectomy in the Department of Otolaryngology, Hokkaido University School of Medicine from 1989 to 1997. Evaluation was performed regarding the following points: 1) postoperative complications, 2) factors that determine the functional results of swallowing, 3) relation between forms of jejunal anastomosis and swallowing. The primary malignancy site was hypopharynx (39), cervical esophagus (4), larynx (3), thyroid (2) and trachea (1), Reconstructions were made with free jejunal autograft alone in 45 cases and with free jejunum in combination with gastric pull-up in 4. In patients who underwent reconstruction with jejunum alone, the anastomosis of the jejunum to the pharynx was performed in side-to-end fashion in 22, end-to-end in 18 and rho-shaped in 4. In the 1 remaining case, we used jejunal-patch graft. Postoperative complications including minor or nongraft related, occurred in 24 of 49 (49.0%) patients. Among these, graft-related complications were graft failure in 1 (2.0%), fistula formation in 3 (6.1%) and graft stricture in 2 (4.0%). Re-operations were required in one case of graft failure and 2 of fistula formation. Consequently, the overall graft-survival rate was 98.0% (48/49). Therefore, we considered the method of reconstruction to be a reliable procedure with a high-success rate. The swallowing function after reconstructive surgery was studied in 35 patients who underwent side-to-end (18) and end-to-end (17) anastomosis of the jejunum to the pharynx. We indicated that appropriate tension in the jejunum was the most important factor for adequate swallowing function. The end-to-end group had a higher rate of taking normal diet compared with the side-to-end group. The rate of swallowing dysfunction was only 5.9% (1/17) in the end-to-end group. On the other hand, 4 of 18 (22.2%) cases in the side-to-end group were regarded as having poor swallowing function. As a result we considered the end-to-end proximal jejunal anastomosis to be the more desirable form.     

Primary carcinoma of the trachea

Five cases of primary carcinoma of the trachea are summarized together with a review of 97 cases recorded at the Birmingham Cancer Registry between 1957 and 1974. Squamous cell carcinoma is the most frequent type (46.4%) followed by anaplastic and oat cell carcinoma (18.5%). The annual incidence rate is 0.15 per 100 000 in males and 0.06 per 100 000 in females. The mean age at presentation is 60.08 years and 63.89 years for males and females respectively. Although there has been an increase in the number of cases reported over this period, the increase in larynx (43%) and trachea (50%) has not kept pace with that for bronchial carcinoma (85%). Some experimental studies in animals and the results of treatment in 97 cases from the Cancer Registry are reported. A brief summary of methods of treatment for carcinoma of the trachea is included. In suitable cases, primary surgery with direct anastomosis offers the best survival rates, although the overall survival rate is poor.
