Article Synopsis
- Metastasis to the thyroid gland from distant tumors, like clear renal cell carcinoma, is rare compared to local metastases from squamous cell carcinomas in the upper aero-digestive tract.
- The authors present three cases of solitary metastases to the thyroid, which can mimic well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, highlighting the need for thorough investigation.
- Recommended treatment involves surgical removal of the cancerous thyroid tissue and affected lymph nodes, with the article discussing clinical aspects, pathology, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and prognosis.
Background: The purpose of this study was to show our comparison of the quality of voice obtained after superficial transoral endoscopic cordectomies (types I, II, and III) according to the European Laryngological Society classification versus the more extended cordectomy (types IV and V) among patients with glottic precancerous lesions or early glottic cancer.
Methods: Sixty-two patients underwent vocal assessment after cordectomy (types I-V) for dysplasia, Tis, T1a, T1b, and T2 lesions.
Results: Cordectomy (types I-III) had good vocal outcomes.
Objective: To compare post treatment quality of life (QoL) of patients treated by radiotherapy or endoscopic transoral endolaryngeal surgery using two quality of life scoring tools.
Methods: From May 1998 to July 2005, 48 patients (11 women and 37 men) with early glottic cancer were treated with curative radiotherapy (18 patients) or laser cordectomy (30 patients), and retrospectively evaluated using QoL questionnaires; European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) - EORTC-QoL Core Questionnaire (QLQ-C30 version 2.0) and organ specific EORTC - QLQ, Head and Neck Module (QLQ-H&N35) at the University Hospital Motol, Czech Republic.
