Preoperative approach and technical considerations in parotid surgery.
Gland Surg
December 2024
Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center-Jefferson Health Asplundh Cancer Pavilion, Willow Grove, PA, USA.
Various approaches and techniques have been developed to address parotid neoplasms over the years. This article reflects on the integration, modification, and refinement of these techniques over a decade of clinical practice. This article provides a narrative description of the evolution of a head and neck oncologic surgeon's approach to parotid neoplasms.

Objectives: To explore the synthesis of high-quality CT (sCT) from cone-beam CT (CBCT) using PE-CycleGAN for adaptive radiotherapy (ART) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Methods: A perception-enhanced CycleGAN model "PE-CycleGAN" was proposed, introducing dual-contrast discriminator loss, multi-perceptual generator loss, and improved U-Net structure. CBCT and CT data from 80 nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients were used as the training set, with 7 cases as the test set.
Prognostic factors and survival outcomes in patients with salivary duct carcinoma: a retrospective cohort study.
BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Department of Stomatology, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing, China.
Background: Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is a highly aggressive salivary gland malignancy with poor prognosis. The aim was to investigate the prognostic factors and survival outcomes in a cohort of SDC patients.
Materials And Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological data of 61 SDC patients treated at the First Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital between January 2010 and December 2020.
Multi-slice computed tomography radiomics combined with serum alpha-L-fucosidase: a potential biomarker for precise identification of pleomorphic adenoma and Warthin tumor.
Transl Cancer Res
December 2024
Department of Stomatology, The First Hospital of Lanzhou University, Lanzhou, China.
Background: The rising incidence of parotid gland tumors, with a focus on pleomorphic adenomas (PMA) and Warthin tumors (WT), necessitates accurate preoperative distinction due to their treatment variability and PMA's malignant potential. Traditional imaging, while valuable, has limited accuracy. This study employs multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) radiomics coupled with serum alpha-L-fucosidase (AFU) levels to develop a diagnostic model aimed at elevating clinical discernment and precision therapy delivery.

Department of Heavy Particles and Radiation Oncology, Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan, ROC.
Background: Unlike conventional photon radiotherapy, particle therapy has the advantage of dose distribution. Carbon-ion radiotherapy is also advantageous in terms of biological effectiveness and other radiobiological aspects. These benefits lead to a higher response probability for previously known radioresistant tumor types.
