Factors Predisposing to the Unplanned Hospital Readmission (UHR) in Patients Undergoing Surgery for Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC): Experience from a Tertiary Cancer Centre.

Unplanned hospital readmissions (UHR) are known to add to patient morbidity, increase the cost of the treatment, and negatively impact the postoperative quality of life. The objective of the study was to identify the UHR rates of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients following surgery and identify the predisposing factors for UHR. We conducted this retrospective analysis of all patients who underwent surgery for OSCC in our (single) surgical unit from January 2016 to December 2018.

A Prospective Study of Level IIB Nodal Metastasis (Supraretrospinal) in Clinically N0 Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Indian Population.

Oral cavity carcinoma is the most common cancer in Indian population. Metastatic nodal disease is the most important prognostic factor for oral cancers. In head and neck cancers with clinically N0 neck, standard selective neck dissection is performed by protecting the spinal accessory nerve to remove level IIA & IIB lymph nodes.

CT Scan Study of Influence of Septal Angle Deviation on Lateral Nasal Wall in Patients of Chronic Rhinosinusitis.

The nasal septum is an important physiological and support structure of the nose. The nasal septal deviation causes alteration in air flow, mucociliary clearance and effects structures of the lateral nasal wall causing various nasal symptoms and other sinonasal disease. A systematic analysis was performed to measure the angle of septal deviation on CT scan PNS coronal section and to evaluate the influence of increasing septal angle deviation on the severity of lateral nasal wall abnormalities.
