The prognosis is suboptimal in patients with locoregionally advanced laryngeal carcinoma even after multimodality protocols. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential influential factors that have an impact on the development of locoregional recurrence, distant metastasis, and oncological outcomes in patients with locoregionally advanced laryngeal carcinoma who had surgical multimodality protocols. A sample size of 85 cases was determined based on a power of 90% and an effect size of α  = 0.05. A retrospective analysis of 357 patients with a diagnosis of laryngeal cancer between 2002 and 2015 was performed. Eighteen variables based on sociodemographic, clinical, histopathological and treatment data were analyzed. Medical records of 85 consecutive patients with locoregionally advanced laryngeal carcinoma who underwent surgical multimodality protocols were reviewed. Five-year overall, disease-specific, disease-free, locoregional recurrence-free and distant metastasis-free survival were 68.7, 78.0, 69.6, 68.9 and 69.2%, respectively. Extracapsular extension was an independent predictive factor for locoregional recurrence. Pathologic tumor volume was an independent predictive factor for distant metastasis. pT-stage was an independent prognostic factor for 5-year overall survival, disease-free survival, locoregional recurrence-free survival and distant metastasis-free survival. High volume, pT4a laryngeal tumors with extracapsular extension are associated with a high risk of locoregional recurrence and distant metastasis; and have poor oncological outcomes in patients with locoregionally advanced laryngeal carcinoma treated with surgical multimodality protocols.

Oncogenic Functions of Alternatively Spliced Isoform in Retroperitoneal Liposarcoma.

Int J Mol Sci

Retroperitoneal liposarcoma (RPLPS) is one of the most common histologic subtypes of soft tissue sarcoma (STS). Complete surgical resection remains the mainstay treatment, while the high rate of locoregional recurrence constitutes the predominant cause of mortality. Well-differentiated (WDLPS) and dedifferentiated (DDLPS) liposarcoma are the most frequent subtypes of RPLPS and present amplified MDM2 gene as a hallmark.

: In this paper, we investigate the association of glycoprotein 96 (GP96) and androgen receptor (AR) expression with clinicopathological factors, additional axillary lymph node burden, and their potential role in predicting 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in breast cancer (BC) patients with sentinel lymph node (SLN) involvement. We also explore the prognostic value of the presence of extranodal extension (ENE) in SLN. : We retrospectively enrolled 107 female patients with cT1-T2 invasive BC and positive SLN biopsy.

Learnability of Ultrasound-Guided Locoregional Anesthesia for Carotid Endarterectomy.

J Clin Med

December 2024

Department of Anesthesiology, Heidelberg University Hospital, Medical Faculty, University of Heidelberg, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany.

: There is an ongoing debate about the most advantageous anesthesia technique for carotid endarterectomy (CEA). From an anesthesiologic perspective, locoregional anesthesia (LRA) appears to offer significant benefits. However, the learning curve and complication rates for anesthesiologists newly performing ultrasound-guided LRA for CEA remain unclear and are to be examined in greater detail in this study.

Contemporary Issues in Postmastectomy Radiotherapy: A Brief Review.

Breast cancer is the one of the most common cancers and causes a significant disease burden. Currently, postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) is indicated for breast cancer patients with higher risk of recurrence, such as those with positive surgical margins or high-risk breast cancer (T3 with positive lymph nodes, ≥4 positive lymph nodes or T4 disease). Whether PMRT should be used in intermediate-risk breast cancer (T3 with no positive lymph nodes or T1-2 with 1-3 positive lymph nodes) is contentious.

Objective: Margin distance is a significant prognosticator in oral cavity cancer but its role in HPV-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma [HPV(+)OPSCC] remains unclear. Here, we investigate the impact of margin distance on locoregional recurrence in HPV(+)OPSCC.

Study Design: This is a retrospective cohort study of surgically treated HPV(+)OPSCC patients.
