Objective: To present our experiences of perioperative therapy on 7 patients suffered from hypopharyngeal carcinoma with cervical esophageal invasion.
Method: Among the 7 patients, 6 patients had unilateral functional neck dissection, total laryngoesophagectomy and reconstruction with gastric pulling-up. One patient had gastrectomy, reconstruction with colonic pulling-up as well as radical neck dissection, total laryngoesophagectomy. Five of 7 patients have unilateral partial thyroidectomy.
Result: All patients complained of vomiting and other abnomalities of digestion, 1 case complicated with pharyngocutaneous fistula, 1 patient developed acute renal failure, postoperatively.
Conclusion: It is very important to improve theraputic skill during perioperative period,which can reduce complications of advanced hypopharyngeal and cervical esophageal cancer and increase patients' survival.

Conservative management of emphysematous esophagitis-a case report.

Department of Radiology, Inje University Sanggye Paik Hospital, Seoul, Korea.
Background: Emphysematous esophagitis is a very rare disease and there are only a few previous reports in the literature. Previously reported cases have resulted in emphysematous esophagitis following anterior cervical procedures or ingestion of hydrogen peroxide (HP). In this report, we describe a case in which a patient with emphysematous esophagitis accompanied by gastritis without the above predisposing factors was treated with conservative treatment.

Background: Intratumor-resident bacteria represent an integral component of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Microbial dysbiosis, which refers to an imbalance in the bacterial composition and bacterial metabolic activities, plays an important role in regulating breast cancer development and progression. However, the impact of specific intratumor-resident bacteria on tumor progression and their underlying mechanisms remain elusive.

Purpose: Based on the demonstration of a circadian rhythm in the human oral mucosa cell cycle, with most cells in the G2/M phase in the afternoon and at night, the present study evaluated the severity of acute radiation esophagitis and treatment outcomes in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients receiving radiotherapy (RT) in the daytime versus in the evening.
Methods: From the 488 eligible patients of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT), 369 patients received RT in the daytime (before 19:00) and 119 patients received RT in the evening (after 19:00). The grades of radiation esophagitis (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.
Diagnostic Testing for Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease: The Role of 24-hour Hypopharyngeal-Esophageal Multichannel Intraluminal Impedance-pH Monitoring.

Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, CHU Saint-Pierre, Brussels, Belgium.
Laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) presents as a constellation of nonspecific upper aerodigestive tract symptoms and signs. Among many objective tools available on the market, hypopharyngeal-esophageal multichannel intraluminal impedance and pH monitoring (HEMII-pH) is considered to date the gold standard technique for diagnosing LPRD, as well as tailoring treatment according to the different LPR profiles. More studies are needed to further validate and standardize diagnostic criteria and evaluate long-term outcomes of patients diagnosed and treated for LPRD using HEMII-pH.

Background/aims: Distal mean nocturnal baseline impedance (MNBI) measuring via pH-impedance may be valuable in diagnosing patients with suspected laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). However, its wide adoption is hindered by cost and invasiveness. This study investigates whether baseline impedance measured during high-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM-BI) can predict pathological MNBI.
