Background and aimNeck lymph node metastasis plays an important role in the prognosis of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. The aim of this study was to evaluate the occult nodal metastasis in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) treated with chemo radiotherapy.MethodsIn this 5-year prospective study, patients with recurrent head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HN-SCC) after primary treatment with chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy that candidate for surgery were enrolled. In total, 50 patients with squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck with N0 neck were included in the study. Age, initial location of recurrent tumor, T staging in primary and recurrent tumors, neck condition (N0 or N+), and pathology report for neck metastasis, number of affected lymph nodes and duration of tumor recurrence were examined.ResultsOut of 50 patients with mean age of 57.04 ± 14.4 years, 13 were female (26%) and 37 (74%) were male. In terms of primary tumor size, 52% (26 patients) were in T2 stage. The primary and recurrent tumor was located in the oral cavity in 33 patients (66%). Nine 0f 50 patients (18%) had occult metastases.ConclusionIt seems that END surgery is necessary for treatment the occult lymph node neck metastasis of recurrent head and neck cancers with N0 neck. Therefore, it is possible that END surgery has reduced cervical recurrence in these patients. 相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The management of advanced malignancies of the head and neck continues to be a challenging clinical problem. During the last three decades, the traditional treatments of surgery and/or radiation have not yielded significant improvements in survival in this patient population. In addition, surgery for advanced disease can create significant functional and cosmetic defects that adversely impact a patient's quality of life. Newer "organ preservation" approaches using chemotherapy and radiation are currently being studied in an attempt to improve survival while maintaining the functional integrity of the disease site. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent studies have demonstrated that for advanced head and neck squamous cell cancers, concurrent chemoradiation is superior to radiation alone for local tumor control and perhaps overall survival. With the exception of laryngeal cancer, phase III data comparing chemoradiation with surgery is lacking for most head and neck subsites. However, comparisons with historical controls suggest that chemoradiation strategies may offer improved outcomes when compared with more traditional treatment regimens. SUMMARY: This review emphasizes recent phase III trials that support the use of chemoradiation strategies in the treatment of advanced head and neck squamous cell cancers. 相似文献

We examined the postoperative adjustment of 45 patients who underwent surgery for cancers of the head and neck: 23 who had laryngeal cancer, 18 who had oral cavity/oropharyngeal cancers, and 4 who had cancers of other sites. Patients were assessed preoperatively, and at 3 months and 9 to 12 months postsurgery. Interviews and questionnaires were used to assess depression, body image, limitations, pain, financial problems, need for help at home, and social interaction. Results revealed that pain, fatigue, weakness, and loss of speech were major concerns. Pain and financial concerns were worst at 3 months and then improved. Physical limitations increased steadily with time. Depression was a major factor in patients with oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancers. Of note, patients who underwent postoperative radiation therapy had the most difficulty adapting to their illness and treatment, with persistent limitations in function and social isolation. The implications of these findings are discussed. 相似文献

IntroductionEven with improved treatment outcomes with multimodality approaches, the question of what is the best initial treatment for locally advanced head and neck cancer still remains unanswered.ObjectiveTo review the overall survival of a large cohort of head and neck cancer, patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer treated in a single institution.Material and methodsWe studied a cohort of patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer treated in our institution in the last fifteen years. To gather a large sample of patients with adequate follow-up time, a cross-check between ours and Fundação Oncocentro de São Paulo databases were done. We included patients with head and neck cancer, clinical or pathological staging III or IV, treated with surgery followed by radiotherapy or surgery plus chemoradiation or radiotherapy alone or chemoradiation alone.Results796 patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer were included, 88% male, 44% age >60 years and 76% stage IV. The tumor location was the oral cavity (34%), oropharynx (27%), hypopharynx (17%) and larynx (17%). The treatment groups were chemoradiation alone (39.7%), surgery plus chemoradiation (26.3%), surgery followed by radiotherapy (18.5%) and radiotherapy alone (15.5%). Comparing the clinical variables between the treatment groups significant differences in age and clinical stage were observed. With a median follow up of 7.5 years (1–16 years), for the entire cohort, the overall survival at 5 and 10 years was 34.8% and 28%. The overall survival at 5 and 10 years was 16.7% and 12.2% for radiotherapy alone, 38.8% and 26.3% for surgery followed by radiotherapy, 28% and 16.6% for chemoradiation alone, and 37.3% and 23.2% for surgery plus chemoradiation. The staging IV (p = 0.03) and radiotherapy alone (p = 0.05), had a worst survival in multivariate analysis. Surgical groups vs. chemoradiation alone had no significant difference for overall survival.ConclusionThe present study is the largest cohort of locally advanced head and neck cancer of Brazilian patients to evaluate treatment outcomes. Although there were significant clinical differences between surgical and radiotherapy groups, surgery or chemoradiation alone as the initial treatment resulted in no significant difference in survival. 相似文献

CONCLUSION: Patients at risk of developing second primary malignancies (SPMs) comprise those with primary hypopharyngeal, laryngeal, and oral cavity index cancers, patients with well-differentiated squamous cell carcinomas, those aged >70 years, patients who are heavy smokers, alcohol drinkers, or betel quid chewers, and those with a family history of SPM. OBJECTIVE: SPMs are commonly found after successful treatment of index cancers in the head and neck region; however, treatment guidelines for SPMs have not been established. We compared the differences in the clinical characteristics, treatment outcomes, and 10-year survival rate between patients with SPMs who had been treated for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and those who had been treated for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in order to establish an effective treatment strategy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was a 10-year retrospective study of 125 patients who had developed SPMs after being treated for either HNSCC or NPC during the period from January 1995 to July 2005. The average follow-up time was 34.9 months, and the setting for the study was a tertiary referral center. RESULTS: The survival rate of patients with SPMs is not significantly poor. The survival is worse if the SPM is associated with a primary advanced stage index cancer or it is synchronous; if the SPM occurs in an area other than the head and neck region; or if SPM patients undergo palliative treatment. 相似文献

ObjectivesSecondary solid tumors can occur after the treatment of hematological malignancies and are associated with a poor prognosis. We evaluated the survival outcomes of patients with second primary head and neck cancers according to the site of cancer origin, type of hematological malignancy, and age.Materials and methodsWe enrolled all patients who underwent surgery for second primary head and neck cancer and were previously treated for hematological malignancy between 1997 and 2020. We analyzed the survival outcomes of patients with second primary head and neck cancer, and compared them with 3126 de novo head and neck cancer patients diagnosed during the same period at our hospital.ResultsThe 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was significantly worse for second primary head and neck cancer patients than de novo cancer patients (52.0 % and 77.9 %, respectively; p = 0.04) and those results were similarly observed in second primary oral cavity cancer (33.3 % and 75.7 %, respectively; p < 0.01). Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia showed significantly worse 5-year OS rate than those with other types of hematological malignancies (p = 0.036). Multivariate analysis showed that bone marrow transplantation (BMT) was a risk factor for the recurrence of head and neck cancers (odds ratio = 6.635, p = 0.042).ConclusionPatients with second primary head and neck cancer, particularly of the oral cavity, had a worse prognosis than patients with de novo head and neck cancer. BMT predicts recurrence in second primary head and neck cancer patients. 相似文献

Squamous cell carcinoma from an unknown head and neck primary site: a "selective treatment" approach
Patel RS Clark J Wyten R Gao K O'Brien CJ 《Archives of otolaryngology--head & neck surgery》2007,133(12):1282-1287
OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of limiting treatment to the involved neck by way of neck dissection and adjuvant radiotherapy and reserving other therapies for salvage in the management of metastatic cervical squamous cell carcinoma from an unknown head and neck primary site. DESIGN: Retrospective study of patients whose clinicopathological data had been prospectively collected in a comprehensive head and neck database. SETTING: A tertiary referral university hospital. PATIENTS: The study population comprised 70 patients with metastatic cervical squamous cell carcinoma from an unknown head and neck primary site. INTERVENTIONS: Neck dissection alone in patients with pN1 disease confined to the lymph node. All remaining patients received neck dissection and adjuvant postoperative irradiation of the involved (dissected) neck. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Incidence of primary, regional, and distant recurrence and disease-specific and overall survival. RESULTS: Nodal stage was pN1 in 5 patients (7%); pN2a in 13 (19%); pN2b in 30 (43%); pN2c in 4 (6%); and pN3 in 18 (26%). Neck dissection alone was performed in 10 patients (14%), while 60 patients (86%) underwent neck dissection and adjuvant irradiation. Median follow-up was 45 months. The primary tumor site emerged in 8 patients (11%). The 5-year control rates were 84% in the ipsilateral (dissected) neck and 93% in the contralateral (undissected) neck. The 5-year disease-specific and overall survival rates were 62% and 56%, respectively. Macroscopic extracapsular spread was the only statistically significant adverse prognostic factor (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: The results of our selective treatment approach compare favorably with the results of other reported protocols using comprehensive irradiation or concurrent chemoradiation. However, patients with extracapsular spread and pN2 or pN3 disease were at high risk of treatment failure and may benefit from adjuvant chemoradiation. Although our protocol spares patients of potentially morbid therapies, salvage is rarely successful. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to determine the pattern and incidence of predictable lymphatic spread and skip metastasis
in oral cancer and analyze the prognostic implications of different therapeutic modalities in the neck metastases. The study
includes 81 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of oral cavity with T1-2N0M0 and T1-3N1-3M0 who were admitted to the Department
of ENT and Head and Neck Surgery, SMS Medical College and Hospital, Jaipur, from June 2006 to May 2008. After complete diagnostic
evaluation (imaging, FNAC), all these patients were operated (wide primary excision with SOHND/Extended SOHND/MRD-I) and followed
up periodically till date. Occult metastasis was found in 26% of the patients. Level I, II, III was most commonly involved.
We did not find any metastasis or recurrence at level IV in N0 cases. Involvement of level IV node in N0 and N+ neck were
0 and 9%, respectively. We did not find any “skip metastasis” at level IV in oral cancers. We concluded that SOHND for N0
and MRND type I for N+ neck for oral cancers is an appropriate treatment. 相似文献

This retrospective database study of 44,862 patients who had a history of a primary head and neck malignancy was conducted to identify any clinical variables that may predict the occurrence of a second primary head and neck malignancy. During a mean follow-up of 42.2 months, a second head and neck primary developed in 941 of these patients (2.1%). Statistical analyses revealed that a higher incidence of a second primary was associated with increased age and a location of the first primary in the larynx/hypopharynx, the oropharynx, a major salivary gland, or the nasopharynx. A lower incidence was associated with the presence of cervical nodal disease or treatment of the first primary with radiation therapy. Factors that had no effect on the risk of a second primary included sex, the size of the first primary tumor, a first-primary site in the oral cavity, and treatment of the first primary with cancer-directed surgery. The risk of a second primary head and neck cancer remained constant for at least 10 years. 相似文献

Still today, the status of the cervical lymph nodes is the most important prognostic factor for head and neck cancer. So the individual treatment concept of the lymphatic drainage depends on the treatment of the primary tumor as well as on the presence or absence of suspect lymph nodes in the imaging diagnosis. Neck dissection may have either a therapeutic objective or a diagnostic one. The selective neck dissection is currently the method of choice for the treatment of patients with advanced head and neck cancers and clinical N0 neck. For oncologic reasons, this procedure is generally recommended with acceptable functional and aesthetic results, especially under the aspect of the mentioned staging procedure. In this review article, current aspects on pre- and posttherapeutic staging of the cervical lymph nodes are described and the indication and the necessary extent of neck dissection for head and neck cancer is discussed. Additionally the critical question is discussed if the lymph node metastasis bears an intrinsic risk of metastatic development and thus its removal in a most possible early stage plays an important role. 相似文献

Objective: To present the theory, technique, and results of photodynamic therapy for the treatment of oral, laryngeal, and head and neck cancers. Study Design: Retrospective review of the literature of more than 500 patients with head and neck cancer treated with photodynamic therapy, as well as a retrospective review of the author's 107 patients treated with photodynamic therapy for head and neck neoplasia between 1990 and 1997. Methods: The literature was retrospectively reviewed, as were patient records, and tabulaled for age, sex, site, and staging of lesions, with special focus on post-photodynamic therapy treatment outcome, long-term disease-free survival, and complications. Results: Twenty-five patients with carcinoma in situ and T1 squamous cell carcinoma of the true vocal cord who underwent photodynamic therapy treatment for cure obtained a complete response after a single photodynamic therapy treatment. Only one patient has had recurrence to date, with a cure rate to 79-month follow-up of 95%. Twenty-nine patients with carcinoma in situ and T1 recurrent squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity and tongue were treated. All obtained a complete response after a single photodynamic therapy treatment; however, five patients developed local recurrence with follow-up to 70 months, for an 80% cure rate. A review of 217 patients with early squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck treated with photodynamic therapy in the literature demonstrated an 89.5% complete response rate. The most common complication in these patients was limited prolonged skin photosensitivity without any permanent sequelae. Conclusions: Photodynamic therapy is effective for treating carcinoma in situ and T1 squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx and oral cavity and may be of benefit as an adjuvant intraoperative treatment of stages III and IV tumors of the head and neck in conjunction with surgery and radiation therapy to improve cure rates. Further controlled studies need to be performed to further demonstrate the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy and the treatment of head and neck cancers. 相似文献

This retrospective study compared elective neck dissection with elective neck radiotherapy for the control of subclinical nodal metastases. Four hundred ninety-eight patients with head and neck primary cancers and no clinically apparent neck metastases on initial presentation comprised the study population. Each patient was followed up for at least 5 years to detect failure to control neck metastases and control of the primary tumor at the time of neck recurrence. Analysis of neck recurrences occurring in patients with control of the primary tumor showed that there was no statistically significant difference between elective radiation therapy to the neck and elective neck dissection for oral cavity, oropharyngeal, and laryngeal cancers. The only statistically significant difference was noted for hypopharyngeal cancers, with radiation therapy being more effective than surgery. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: Comorbidity is significantly associated with diminished survival and quality of life (QOL) after treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). We sought to determine whether comorbidity influenced pretreatment QOL scores and treatment selection in patients with HNSCC. METHODS: The medical records of all patients diagnosed with HNSCC who participated in pretreatment QOL analysis over a 15-month period were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with a history of prior treatment for head and neck cancer, unresectable, or distant metastatic disease were excluded. The University of Washington (UW) QOL questionnaire, Performance Status Scale (PSS), and Karnofsky score were used to measure pretreatment QOL. Comorbidity was graded using the Modified Medical Comorbidity Index. RESULTS: Of 75 patients who met study criteria, 33 underwent primary surgical therapy, and 42 underwent nonoperative (radiation or chemoradiation) therapy. Treatment groups did not differ with respect to patient demographics, UW QOL scores, PSS scores, Karnofsky score, or comorbidity. Treatment groups differed significantly by disease stage and primary site. Patients with advanced stage disease (III/IV) or oropharyngeal primary tumors were more likely to undergo nonoperative treatment, compared with patients with early stage disease (I/II) or oral cavity primary tumors (P < .005). No significant association was found between comorbidity and pretreatment QOL scores. CONCLUSIONS: Comorbidity was not significantly associated with treatment selection or pretreatment QOL scores in patients with HNSCC. Location of the primary tumor and disease stage were significantly associated with treatment selection. Further studies are required to determine the effect of comorbidity on patient and tumor responses to treatment. 相似文献

The incidence and factors associated with multiple primary cancer were surveyed and analyzed from April 1978 through December 1990 in our clinic. Fifty-nine cases with multiple primary cancers were selected for study from among 579 cases with malignant head and neck region tumors. The cancers involved the larynx in 17 cases (8.4%), oral cavity in 14 (19.4%), oropharynx in 13 (41.9%), hypopharynx in 7 (8.0%) and nasal cavity or paranasal sinus in 7 (8.0%). Twenty-one cases (35.6%) arose synchronously within one year. From our observations, heavy drinking and smoking were most strongly suspected to be risk factors for induction of malignancy. Most multiple primary cancers in the head and neck region were observed to coexistent in a "so called multicentric zone" consisting of the oral area, pharyngeal area, larynx, esophagus, stomach, and tracheobronchial tree. To avoid overlooking concealed cancer in the multicentric zone, upper gastro-intestinal endoscopy, bronchial endoscopy, chest X-ray and sputum examination should be performed for screening of patients with head and neck malignancies. 相似文献

Because mucosal melanoma of the head or neck is uncommon, retrospective data are of value in defining its natural history, response to treatment, and patterns of recurrence. We analyzed the medical records of 28 patients who had been treated for a mucosal melanoma of the head or neck between 1961 and 1993. We found that their cumulative 5-year survival rate was 20%. Patients who had primary tumors of the nasal cavity had significantly better 5-year survival than other patients. Early stage at presentation was another predictor of a more favorable outcome. Only 2 of the 17 patients (12%) who underwent surgery died with local disease. However, 13 of these 17 surgical patients (76%) eventually died of distant metastases. There were 3 long-term (> 5 yr) survivors: 2 who were treated by surgery alone, and 1 who was treated with surgery and radiation therapy. We found that aggressive resection of the primary tumor and of any local recurrence can achieve local control in most patients with mucosal melanoma of the head or neck. Distant metastasis is the limiting factor for long-term survival. 相似文献

In the past two decades, major modifications in the way we treat head and neck cancers, due to advances in technology and medical oncology, have led to a decline in the use of open surgery as first-line treatment of cancers arising from several primary tumor sites. The incidence of tobacco- and alcohol-related squamous cell carcinoma of the pharynx and larynx has been steadily decreasing, with a rise in the incidence of human papillomavirus-related oropharyngeal tumors and the use of minimally invasive endoscopic surgery and non-surgical treatment modalities has increased in the treatment of all of these tumors. However, open surgery remains the initial definitive treatment modality for other tumors, including tumors of the skin, oral cavity, sinonasal cavities and skull base, salivary glands, thyroid and sarcomas. Selected group of nasal, paranasal, base of the skull and thyroid tumors are also candidates for minimally invasive procedures. For some indications, the rate of open surgery has actually increased in the past decade, with an increase in the incidence of oral cavity, thyroid and skin cancer, an increase in the number of neck dissections performed, and an increase in salvage surgery and free flap reconstruction. The use of minimally invasive, technology-based surgery—with the use of lasers, operating microscopes, endoscopes, robots and image guidance—has increased. Technology, epidemiology and advances in other domains such as tissue engineering and allotransplantations may further change the domains of competencies for future head and neck surgeons. 相似文献

Lateral laryngeal suspension in combination with a cricopharyngeal myotomy represents a simple technique for prevention and/or treatment of chronic aspiration in patients during or after surgery for head and neck cancer. At the Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery of the University of Heidelberg this technique has been employed with satisfying results in 6 patients with large carcinomas of the oral cavity and pharynx. Lateral laryngeal suspension was not able to prevent--or if used secondarily--to eliminate aspiration completely in all patients. However, none of our patients experienced aspiration of saliva postoperatively. All were able to use a speech canula and some could even be fed orally. 相似文献

Methods Fifty-five patients with HIV infection and AIDS encountered in the department of otorhinolaryngology head and neck surgery in Tanzania were included in this study. There were 23 males and 32 femals with age ranged from 3 -67 years, medium 31 year. The clinical manifestation and prognosis of the patients were analyzed and summed up. Results Parotid glands swelling was the most commonly seen clinical manifestation in the 55 cases. Among the cases reported here, 17 (30.9%) showed parotid glands swelling, 19(34. 5% ) had Kaposi's sarcoma in nasal cavity or oral cavity or pharynx,12(21.8% ) were accompanied with chronic suppurative otitis media, 11 (20.0%) had masses in the neck,7 ( 12.7% ) had masses in the pharynx, 6 ( 10.9% ) were seen to have ulcer in oral and pharyngeal mucosa,2(3.6% ) showed infection due to candidaalbicans. The infection in most cases could be controlled and symptoms relieved, but recurrence could occur over time and got worse gradually. Conclusions Many patients with HIV infection and AIDS first see a doctor in otorhinolaryngology head and neck surgery.Patients who had the above clinical manifestations in repeated poor results should be observed carefully,early diagnosis and treatment are important to prevent transmission, prolong life and maximize the quality of life of the patients. 相似文献
