The implicated clinical factors for outcomes in 304 patients with salivary duct carcinoma: Multi‐institutional retrospective analysis in Japan

paythelady.61 shared this article with you from Inoreader The implicated clinical factors for outcomes in 304 patients with salivary duct carcinoma: Multi‐institutional retrospective analysis in Japan Via Head & Neck Abstract Background Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is a high-grade salivary malignancy that frequently occurs as the carcinomatous component of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma. We herein examined the clinical factors affecting outcomes in a large cohort of SDC. Methods We selected 304 SDC cases and investigated clinical characteristics and the factors affecting outcomes. Results The median age of the cases examined was 68 years, the most common primary site was the parotid gland (238 cases), and there was a male predominance (M/F = 5:1). Outcomes were significantly worse when the primary tumor site was the minor salivary glands (SG) than when it was the major SG. Outcomes were also significantly worse in pN(+) cases (161 cases) than in pN0 cases, particularly those with a metastatic lymph node number ≥11. The cumulative incidence of relapse and distant metastases was significantly higher in stage IV cases than in stage 0–III cases. Conclusions The absolute number of lymph node metastases, higher stages, and the minor SG as the primary tumor site were identified as factors affecting the outcome of SDC. View on the web Inoreader.

David McDonogh, born into chattel slavery in Louisiana in the early 1800s, accomplished the unfathomable by becoming the first Black otolaryngologist in the United States of America. With tireless determination and profound intellect, Dr McDonogh surmounted immeasurable adversity along his improbable journey to freedom and success as an eye, ear, nose, and throat doctor in New York. His doctorate in medicine was posthumously awarded to his great-great-granddaughter in 2018 by the Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons. In this History of Otolaryngology piece, we share his extraordinary story. View on the web Inoreader. Take back control of your news feed. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook.

Anatomical variations in the relationship between the spinal accessory nerve and internal jugular vein: a systematic review and meta-analysis

paythelady.61 shared this article with you from Inoreader Anatomical variations in the relationship between the spinal accessory nerve and internal jugular vein: a systematic review and meta-analysis Via International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery The relationship between the spinal accessory nerve and internal jugular vein is important for modified neck dissection surgery. Therefore, the aim of this review was to investigate variations in this relationship. Through a search of the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, LILACS, and SciELO databases, the review authors collected anatomical data for inclusion in a meta-analysis, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Four relationship patterns were identified and classified: type 1, the nerve lies superficial to the vein; type 2, the nerve lies deep to the vein; type 3, the nerve crosses the branches of the vein; type 4, the nerve splits and its branches pass around the vein.
