Isolated Orbital Fracture - Treatment and Outcomes in a Single Tertiary Care Centre.

Study Design: Retrospective, questionnaire survey.

Objective: The literature lacks a consensus on treatment of isolated orbital fracture. Our aim was to explore treatment schemes and outcomes of patients with isolated orbital fracture treated at a single tertiary care centre.

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol improves patient outcomes in free flap surgery for head and neck cancer.

Background: In recent years, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) guidelines have been developed to optimize pre-, intra-, and postoperative care of surgical oncology patients. The aim of this study was to compare management outcome of patients undergoing head and neck cancer (HNC) surgery with free flap reconstruction at our institution before and after the implementation of the ERAS guidelines.

Methods: This retrospective study comprised 283 patients undergoing HNC surgery with free flap reconstruction between 2013 and 2020.

Changes in occurrence and management of laryngeal fractures at the Helsinki University Hospital during 25 years.

Purpose: Laryngeal fracture is a rare but potentially life-threatening trauma. Fractures vary from mild to dislocated and extensive with risk of severe complications. This study investigated the occurrence, clinical characteristics and management of laryngeal fractures in the last 15 years.

Significant risk of second primary cancer among laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma patients even after 20 years.

Background: Evidence on the risk of second primary cancer (SPC) following primary laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is limited, especially in Europe.

Methods: Patients diagnosed with primary LSCC from 1953-2018 were retrieved from the Finnish Cancer Registry. A total of 6241 LSCC patients were identified adding to 49,393 person-years (PY) of follow-up until the end of 2019.
