Background: The early diagnosis of glottic laryngeal cancer is the key to successful treatment, and machine learning (ML) combined with narrow-band imaging (NBI) laryngoscopy provides a new idea for the early diagnosis of glottic laryngeal cancer.
Objective: To explore the clinical applicability of the diagnosis of early glottic cancer based on ML combined with NBI.
Material And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 200 patients diagnosed with laryngeal mass, and the general clinical characteristics and pathological results of the patients were collected.

Purpose: Deep learning is a promising approach to increase reproducibility and time-efficiency of GTV delineation in head and neck cancer, but model evaluation primarily relies on manual GTV delineations as reference annotation, which are subjective and tend to overestimate tumor volume. This study aimed to validate a deep learning model for laryngeal and hypopharyngeal GTV segmentation with pathology and to compare its performance with clinicians' manual delineations.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective dataset of 193 laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancer patients was used to train a deep learning model with clinical GTV delineations as reference.

Objectives: This study aimed to analyze lymph node metastasis (LNM) distribution in superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and its impact factors on survival.
Methods: We reviewed 241 pT1N+ ESCC cases between February 2012 and April 2022 from 10 Chinese hospitals with a high volume of esophageal cancer (EC). We analyzed clinicopathological data to identify overall survival (OS) risk factors and LNM distribution in relation to tumor invasion depth.

Introduction: The larynx organ preservation (LOP) trial DeLOS-II enrolled = 173 patients with advanced laryngeal/hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LHSCC) amenable (only curatively resectable) through total laryngectomy (TL) to receive induction chemotherapy (IC) with TPF [docetaxel (T), cisplatin (P), and 5-fluorouracil (F)] (arm A, 85 patients) or additional cetuximab (E) weekly (arm B, 88 patients). Responders with endoscopic estimated tumor surface shrinkage (ETSS) ≥30% after 1 cycle IC (IC-1) received a further two cycles of IC followed by radiotherapy (RT), whereas TL was recommended for non-responders. Arm B failed to show superior 24-month laryngectomy-free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS), the protocol-specified primary and secondary endpoints.

High levels of the N7 methylguanosine (m7G) methyltransferase WD repeat domain 4 (WDR4) are associated with the progression of multiple tumors, including head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Laryngeal cancer (LC) is the second most common malignant tumor of the head and neck. However, the role of WDR4 in LC remains unclear.
