Following oncologic surgery for advanced cancer of the hypopharynx, primary closure of the defect of the upper aerodigestive tract is difficult to achieve. Usually locoregional or free flaps are used, the choice being determined by the extent of the surgical defect, the expertise of the surgeons and the general condition of the patient. Aim of the present study was to evaluate the functional re...
Purpose: To retrospectively review the outcomes of adjuvant postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) following surgery in patients with advanced hypopharyngeal cancer treated at an academic tertiary referral center. Methods: Data of patients treated with curative intent in a single radiotherapy unit over a 15-year period (1990-2004) with upfront surgery followed by PORT was retrieved from an electroni...
Cervical esophageal cancer and hypopharyngeal cancer represent a major diagnostic issue in early stages, considering the fact that the implication of both cervical esophageal and hypopharyngeal cancers shows a poor prognostic from the very beginning. Positive diagnosis can only be made after histopathological analysis and immunohistochemical analysis in addition. The bioptic material is sampled...
Preservation of the larynx is the most critical factor influencing quality of life in the treatment of head and neck cancer. This clinical study focuses on laryngeal function-preserving chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced hypopharyngeal and laryngeal cancer. Thirty-two resectable cases with histologically proven squamous cell carcinoma undergoing function-preserving therapy were examined. In...
BACKGROUND For hypopharyngeal cancer, transoral robotic surgery (TORS) has been reported as a new organ preserving treatment but outcomes are rarely reported. METHODS From 2010 to 2013, 10 patients with early T classification pyriform sinus cancer were selected to receive TORS and conventional neck dissection. The clinical parameters, including rates of adjuvant radiotherapy, survivals, as we...
BACKGROUND The number and ratio of positive lymph nodes are important prognostic factors in gastric cancer, but there is little data reported in hypopharyngeal cancer. METHODS Medical data from 81 patients with hypopharyngeal cancer undergoing radical hypopharyngectomy and cervical lymph node dissection were reviewed. RESULTS The median survival time was 84, 54, 30, and 13 months in patient...
BACKGROUND Lymphatic vessel density (LVD) has been shown to be an important predictor of survival in head and neck cancers. We report the predictive value of LVD for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in laryngeal/hypopharyngeal cancer. METHODS Fifty-five untreated patients with T3/T4 laryngeal and T4 hypopharyngeal cancer underwent laryngectomy between 1999 and 2010. S...
This study evaluated the prognostic significance of the maximum standardized uptake value of the primary site (pSUVmax) in 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) scans of patients with oropharyngeal or hypopharyngeal cancer who were treated using definitive radiotherapy. The study included 86 patients who were primarily treated with radiotherapy for oropharyngeal or hypop...
PURPOSE In this retrospective study we analysed patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx and hypopharynx treated with primary total laryngectomy (PTL) between 1990 and 2007. METHODS The patients were treated by classical PTL, radiotherapy 60-70 Gy, concomitant radio and chemotherapy (cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil) or salvage total laryngectomy (STL). They were followed up f...
BACKGROUND Placement of gastrostomy tubes (g-tubes) in patients with hypopharyngeal cancers undergoing radiation and chemotherapy is generally empirically determined. We examined our experience to identify predictive factors for g-tube placement and length of dependence. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of all patients with primary hypopharyngeal cancer treated with nonsurgical mod...
