Robotic surgery for primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown site.
IMPORTANCE Identification of the primary site in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is crucial because it improves the patient's prognosis and minimizes morbidity from treatment. OBJECTIVES To determine the efficacy of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in identifying unknown primary sites of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Retrospective, mu...
متن کاملTranscervical ultrasound identifies primary tumor site of unknown primary head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
H ead and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) of unknown primary site (UP) account for approximately 4% of HNSCCs. These cases have historically been subclinical tumors arising from the nasopharynx, hypopharynx, or oropharynx. In the era of human papillomavirus (HPV)–positive HNSCCs, the presence of HPV in cervical malignancy of UP has been strongly associated with oropharyngeal primary tumo...
متن کاملSquamous cell carcinoma from an unknown head and neck primary site: a "selective treatment" approach.
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 comprehe...
متن کاملHead and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary: neck dissection and radiotherapy or definitive radiotherapy.
BACKGROUND Management of head and neck carcinoma from unknown primary (HNCUP) remains controversial, with neck dissection and radiotherapy (RT) or definitive RT both commonly used. The purpose of this study was to characterize HNCUP and retrospectively compare outcomes for patients treated with neck dissection + RT versus definitive RT. METHODS From 1994 to 2009, 41 patients with HNCUP underw...
متن کاملDensity of mast-cells and Microvessels Density in head and neck cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Background and Aim: Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is the second most common skin cancer. Mast cells may play a role in tumor progression and metastasis by increasing angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of mast cells by increasing angiogenesis in invasion of head and neck cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional stud...
