Detailed information on the hypopharyngeal cyst presentation, terminology, classification, diagnosis, management, and possible complication is scarce though it would lead to life-threatening symptoms. This review article, therefore, meticulously presents and analyzes the majority of the pertaining literature. In this context, a particular emphasis has been placed on the embryological development of the branchial arches while discussing each entity that would improve the current understanding of different pharyngeal cyst's pathologies.

Application of pedicled supraclavicular flaps in hypopharyngectomy with preservation of laryngeal function.
BMC Surg
December 2024
Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, The Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University, No.25, Taiping Street, Jiangyang District, Luzhou, 646000, China.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of pedicled supraclavicular flaps in hypopharyngectomy reconstruction, with a focus on preserving laryngeal function.
Methods: From August 2019 to June 2022, 14 patients with primary hypopharyngeal carcinoma who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and underwent the repair of hypopharyngeal defects using pedicled supraclavicular flaps were included retrospectively. Relevant clinical evaluation indicators include patient characteristics, defect sizes, flap sizes, flap harvesting time, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications, recurrence, and survival outcomes.
Old age decreases the risk of lymph node metastasis in T1-2 hypopharynx squamous cell carcinoma patients.
Eur J Cancer Prev

Department of Radiation Oncology, Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center, Fudan University Cancer Hospital.
Cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) is an important prognostic factor for hypopharynx squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) patients, which can be detected in a large fraction of clinically diagnosed early hypopharynx SCC patients; however, the importance of knowing the risk of LNM in the younger/older patients has not been well defined. The objective of this study is to assess the effect of age and LNM in T1-2 hypopharynx SCC patients. Patients with T1-2 hypopharynx SCC were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database between 2005 and 2014.

Feeding jejunostomy is a simple and common procedure used to provide enteral nutrition. Acute intestinal intussusception on a jejunostomy tube is a rare complication that can have catastrophic consequences and often requires urgent surgical intervention. We report the case of a 45-year-old female patient with a stenosing hypopharyngeal tumor leading to complete aphagia.

December 2024
Division of Public Health, Department of Family & Preventive Medicine, University of Utah School of Medicine, and Huntsman Cancer Institute, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.
Introduction: The relations between coffee and tea consumption and head and neck cancer (HNC) incidence are unclear. With increasing global HNC burden, this study aims to examine the association between coffee, tea, and HNC.
Methods: A pooled analysis of 9548 HNC cases and 15,783 controls from 14 individual-level case-control studies was conducted from the International Head and Neck Cancer Epidemiology consortium.
Infrahyoid Myocutaneous Flaps with Common Wall of Hypopharyngeal and Esophageal Serosas for Voice Rehabilitation After Total Laryngectomy.
J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg
December 2024
ENT Institute and Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Eye & ENT Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.
Importance: Patients who undergo total laryngectomy lose the voice function permanently. It is important to reconstruct the voice function of the patients after total laryngectomy.
Objective: To explore a novel method for voice rehabilitation by suturing infrahyoid myocutaneous flaps to the hypopharyngeal and esophageal serosas after total laryngectomy and investigate its clinical efficacy.
