Background: Revision surgery for patients with persistent, recurrent, or progressive syringomyelia following foramen magnum decompression (FMD) for Chiari malformation I-syringomyelia (CM-SM) is not uncommon and presents both strategic and technical challenges.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study including all patients who underwent revision Cerebellar Tonsillectomy (CTL) for CM-SM between 2003 and 2023. Additionally, we performed uni- and multivariate analyses to identify possible factors contributing to failed CTL outcomes.
The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to identify the prevalence of synchronous contralateral tonsil carcinoma (SCTC) amongst patients with tonsil carcinoma or head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary (HNSCCUP). Thirteen retrospective studies, comprising 2623 patients, were analysed, revealing an overall pooled SCTC prevalence of 4%, rising to 10% in HNSCCUP cases. HPV/p16 positivity was associated with SCTC prevalence of 3%, while HPV/p16 negativity was greater at 8%.
