Background: Many studies have compared lip-splitting mandibulotomy (LSM) and lip-mandible preservation (LMP) techniques in oral and oropharyngeal cancer (OOPC) patients with inconsistent conclusions. Evidence-based recommendations for the optimal surgical approach for treating OOPC are lacking.
Methods: The Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, WAN-FANG, CQVIP, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were systematically searched to identify studies that compared LSM versus LMP for OOPC.

Purpose: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is a feared complication after head and neck radiation, but the incidence and radiotherapy risk factors for ORN in children are unknown. In this retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected dataset, we evaluated the incidence and factors associated with development of ORN in children treated with proton therapy for head and neck malignancies.
Methods And Materials: We reviewed records from patients treated at a single institution between December 2006 and February 2020 including demographic data, tumor, and treatment details, ORN occurrence, and dosimetry.

Background And Purpose: With standard radiotherapy protocols after R0 resection of advanced local oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and primary reconstruction of segmental defects, a high radiation dose is applied to healthy tissue in autologous microvascular free flaps. Considering the potential consequences of flap complications and associated surgeries for patients, data is lacking on whether postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) of the flap volume is indicated at all.
Materials And Methods: Patients with segmental mandibular resection and immediate reconstruction with osseous free flaps due to advanced OSCC between 2012 and 2022 were analyzed retrospectively regarding overall (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), local failure-free survival (LFFS), the need for secondary surgeries as well as flap complications and compared between patients with and without PORT in a matched-pair approach with occurrence of flap complications as a primary endpoint.
