RESUMO
PURPOSE: Parotid pleomorphic adenomas present a risk of recurrence, higher when the tumour is a hypocellular subtype. The aim of the study was to determine whether it is possible to characterize this histological subtype with diffusion and perfusion sequences of the preoperative MRI. METHODS: This retrospective study included 97 patients operated between 2010 and 2020. Histologic slides review was performed to classify tumours into three histologic subtypes: hypocellular, classical and hypercellular. Univariate and multivariate analyses studied the correlation between histology and diffusion and perfusion MRI parameters obtained with OleaSphere® software. RESULTS: The hypocellular subtype had higher apparent diffusion coefficient values than the other two subtypes: 2.13 ± 0.23, 1.83 ± 0.42, and 1.61 ± 0.4 × 10-3 mm2/s for hypocellular, classical and hypercellular subtype respectively (p < 0.0001). Multivariate analysis showed that an ADCmean > 1.88 × 10-3 mm2/s was suggestive of a hypocellular pleomorphic adenoma in 79% of the cases, with a specificity and PPV of 94 and 96% (p < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSION: The histological subtype of a pleomorphic adenoma can be predicted preoperatively with ADC values. A prospective and multicentric study on a larger cohort is needed to confirm our results.

PURPOSE: To propose, in patients presenting a difficult laryngeal exposure, a surgical innovation allowing to perform a transoral laser cordectomy for cancers reaching the anterior commissure or the anterior third of vocal folds (according to the European Laryngological Society classification of laryngeal endoscopic cordectomies). METHODS: Our surgical technique consisted of adding to conventional cordectomies a modified relaxation thyroplasty proposed by Isshiki (type III), also called relaxation thyroplasty by a medial approach in the European Laryngological Society classification system. The anterior commissure retrusion is usually employed in the management of high-pitched voice disorders, but can also allow a better exposure of the anterior commissure. RESULTS: We described here this surgical innovation through the example of our first two patients. For both patients, the definitive histologic analysis showed negative microscopic margins and there was no post-operative complication. There was no need for a tracheostomy. They were allowed to take a normal diet after 2 days and were discharged after 4 days. The voice was breathy and hoarse as expected in case of extended cordectomy. CONCLUSIONS: This surgical innovation corresponding to the addition of an anterior commissure retrusion by a bilateral thyrotomy could be useful in the ELS classification of endoscopic cordectomies. It should allow surgeons to carry out a transoral CO2 laser cordectomy in patients with a T1 and sometimes T2 glottic carcinoma, even with a difficult laryngeal exposure.

BACKGROUND: Providing cancer patients with adequate information is essential to their confidence and satisfaction regarding medical care. The aims of this study were to evaluate the information given to patients undergoing total pharyngolaryngectomy (TPL) as well as the evolution and predictors of patient quality of life (QoL). METHODS: We conducted a prospective multicentric study on patients undergoing TPL for a locally advanced laryngeal/hypopharyngeal cancer. All patients completed the EORTC QLQ-INFO25, QLQ-C30, and QLQ-H&N35 questionnaires, before and after surgery. RESULTS: This study enrolled 46 patients. Between the pre- and post-therapeutic periods, we observed no significant changes in the global QLQ-INFO25 and QLQ-C30 scores. However, we found a significant deterioration in 4 QLQ-INFO25 scales/items and in social functioning, as well as an increase of sense, speech, and social contact problems. N-stage and professional activity were significant predictors of preoperative QLQ-INFO25 scores. Younger age was significantly associated with financial difficulties, whereas professional activity and lower education level were significant predictors of xerostomia and swallowing problems, respectively. CONCLUSION: In patients undergoing TPL, we observed significant changes in QLQ-INFO25 scores between the pre- and post-treatment periods and, particularly, a deterioration of patient satisfaction with the information received. Several clinical factors were identified as significant predictors of QLQ-INFO25 and QoL scores.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to translate the FACE-Q "Rhinoplasty" module into French and validate its use for the French-speaking population. DESIGN: "Satisfaction with the nose" and "Satisfaction with nostrils" questionnaires were used and translated. SETTINGS: We were granted permission to use the FACE-Q rhinoplasty module by the development team. These two questionnaires constitute the rhinoplasty module of the FACE-Q questionnaire. ISPOR and WHO recommendations were used to complete the translation process from English into French in six steps. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENT: Our goal was to obtain, not a literal translation, but rather a translation of the idea or concept. RESULTS: Each step allowed us to make changes to achieve a conceptual translation equivalent to the original version. CONCLUSION: The FACE-Q questionnaire is a reference in the field of cosmetic surgery outcome evaluation. The use of two validated translation recommendations, with a six-step translation-back translation process, leads to a French version corresponding to the original. This version is usable in a French-speaking population.

The aim of this study was to obtain a quantitative anatomical description of the hyoid bone-larynx complex using modern 3D reconstruction tools. The study was conducted on 104 bones from CT scan images of living adult subjects. Three-dimensional reconstructions were created from CT scan images using AVIZO 6.2 software package. A study of this complex was carried out using metric and morphological analyses. Characteristics of the hyoid bone and larynx were highly heterogeneous and were closely linked with the sex, height, and weight of the individuals. Height and width of larynx were significantly greater in men than in women (24.99 vs. 17.3 mm, p ≤ 0.05 and 46.75 vs. 41.07, p ≤ 0.05), whereas the thyroid angle was larger in females (81.12° vs. 74.48°, p ≤ 0.05). There was a significant correlation between the height and weight of subjects and different measurements of the hyoid-larynx complex. (Pearson's coefficient correlation r = 0.42, p ≤ 0.05 between the height of thyroid ala and the height of subjects and r = 0.1, p ≤ 0.05 between the height of thyroid ala and the weight of subjects). Shape and size analysis of the hyoid-larynx complex showed the existence of a significant sexual dimorphism and high interindividual heterogeneity depending to patient morphology. These results encourage us to go further with functional and imaging correlations.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the practices of ENT surgeons for the management of early glottic cancers affecting only one vocal cord, i.e. classified T1a. A questionnaire was sent to different surgeons managing cancers of the larynx in France, Belgium and Switzerland. A descriptive and comparative analysis of practices across centers was performed. The decision-making parameters of the therapeutic strategy were analyzed. Sixty-nine surgeons completed the questionnaire (58 in France, 10 in Belgium and one in Switzerland). In the example of a 50-year-old man with active tobacco use and no oncologic history presenting a squamous cell carcinoma of the middle third of the vocal cord classified T1aN0M0, and with easy glottic exposition by laryngoscopy, 91 % of surgeons proposed endoscopic surgery laser, 2 % radiotherapy and 7 % proposed one of these two treatments without any preference. Therapeutic strategies were not influenced by the sex (p = 1.00), the smoking status (p = 0.58) or the age of the patient (more or less than 80 years, p = 0.27). A significant change was observed in the therapeutic strategy for tumors non-exposable by laryngoscopy (p = 0.032), tumors reaching the anterior commissure (p = 0.001) and patients using their voice professionally (p = 0.0003). The management strategy of T1a glottic carcinomas, in our series, is mainly surgical. The choice of therapeutic strategy seems to be based, in our series, on criteria such as the risk of a second location, cost, and duration of treatment.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the practices of ENT surgeons for the management of surgical margins after endoscopic laser surgery for early glottic cancers. A questionnaire was sent to different surgeons managing cancers of the larynx in France, Belgium and Switzerland. A descriptive and comparative analysis of practices across centers was performed. Sixty-nine surgeons completed the questionnaire (58 in France, 10 in Belgium and 1 in Switzerland). In case of very close or equivocal resection margins after definitive histological examination, 67 % of surgeons perform close follow-up, 28 % further treatment and 5 % had no opinion. Factors resulting in a significant change in the management of equivocal or very close margins were: the country of origin (p = 0.011), the specialty of the multidisciplinary team leader (p = 0.001), the fact that radiation equipment is located in the same center (p = 0.027) and the access to IMRT technique (p = 0.027). In case of positive resection margins, 80 % of surgeons perform further treatment, 15 % surveillance, and 5 % had no opinion. The only factor resulting in a significant change in the management of positive margins was the number of cancers of the larynx treated per year (p = 0.011). It is important to spare, on one hand equivocal or very close margins and on the other hand, positive margins. Postoperative management should be discussed depending on intraoperative findings, patient, practices of multidisciplinary team, and surgeon experience. This management remains non-consensual and writing a good practice guideline could be useful.

The aim of the study was to evaluate swallowing using a reproducible objective methodology and to seek preoperative factors that could influence swallowing outcomes in patients operated on for partial laryngectomy. Twenty-four patients who underwent partial frontolateral laryngectomy with epiglottic reconstruction for T1bN0 or T2N0 glottic carcinoma between 2008 and 2012 were retrospectively evaluated. Using fiberoptic endoscopic and videofluoroscopic evaluation, early (15 days postoperatively) and late (2 months postoperatively) scores were obtained for all patients to quantify their swallowing skills. Eighty-three percent of patients achieved at least partial oral feeding at time of hospital discharge and 87.5% achieved exclusive oral feeding within 2 months postoperatively. Early score was good or excellent in 50%, average in 4.2% and poor in 41.8%. Regarding late scores, 63% were classified as having a good or excellent late score, 7 patients (29%) were classified as "middle result" because their time to recover was longer (i.e. between 1 and 2 months postoperatively), and two patients had a poor late score. Finally, at last follow-up, only one patient was partially fed by gastrostomy (180 days after surgery). T stage (p = 0.04) was the only factor influencing early swallowing outcomes and length of hospital stay was longer for poor scores than for good late results (p = 0.02). Our findings show good outcomes in terms of postoperative swallowing. Objective assessment of deglutition is essential for a better understanding of the mechanisms of postoperative swallowing disorders and for patient selection.

BACKGROUND: Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) opens new perspectives. We evaluated the outcomes for patients having undergone TORS after previous radiotherapy. METHODS: A retrospective multicenter study (n = 138) in a previously irradiated area between 2009 and 2020. Survival was assessed with the Kaplan-Meier method. Prognostic factors were evaluated using a chi-squared test, Fisher's test, or Wilcoxon's test. RESULTS: The median length of hospital stay was 12.5 days. Bleeding was the most frequent postoperative complication (15.2%, n = 22). Prophylactic vessel ligation did not significantly decrease bleeding. Complications were significantly lower for Tis, T1, and N0 tumors. 91.6% (n = 120) of the patients with a perioperative tracheotomy could be decannulated. Larynx was functional for 65.94% of the patients. The median length of follow-up was 26 months. The 5-year overall and relapse-free survival rates were respectively 59.9% and 43.4%. CONCLUSION: Oncological and functional results confirmed the value of TORS as a treatment in previously irradiated area.

The aim of this study was to obtain a quantitative anatomical description of the hyoid bone using modern 3D reconstruction tools and to discuss potential applications of the knowledge in clinical practice. The study was conducted on 88 intact hyoid bones taken from cadavers during forensic autopsies (group 1) and on 92 bones from CT scan images of living adult subjects (group 2). Three-dimensional reconstructions were created from CT scan images using Amira 5.3.3® software. An anatomical and anthropological study of hyoid bones was carried out using metric and morphological analyses. Groups 1 and 2 were compared to evaluate the influence of muscle traction on hyoid bone shape. Characteristics of the hyoid bone were highly heterogeneous and were closely linked with the sex, height, and weight of the individuals. Length and width were significantly greater in men than in women (39.08 vs. 32.50 mm, p = 0.033 and 42.29 vs. 38.61 mm, p = 0.003), whereas the angle between the greater horns was larger in females (44.09 vs. 38.78, p = 0.007). There was a significant positive correlation between the height (Pearson coefficient correlation r = 0.533, p = 0.01) and weight (r = 0.497, p = 0.01) of subjects and the length of the hyoid bone. Significant metric differences were shown between group 1 and group 2. This very reproducible methodology is important because it may lead to clinical studies in, e.g., head and neck cancer or sleep apnea. Such studies are ongoing in our research program.

Lipomas arising from the parotid gland are very rare. We report a 10-year experience in a single institution (La Timone University Hospital of Marseille, France). Among 614 parotidectomies for neoplasms performed from 1998 to 2008, 12 lipomas were identified. A retrospective analysis based on medical records was made. Evaluation, analysis and current management of lipomas of the parotid gland are described. Lipomas accounted for 2% of all parotid neoplasms and 2.6% of benign tumors in our series. The median age of patients was 60 years with a M/F sex ratio of 5-1. The main presentation was a soft asymptomatic, slow-growing, mobile mass although 30% had an indurated mass on palpation. Diagnosis of lipoma, based on the results of imaging, was made preoperatively in all cases. The mean tumor duration prior to excision was 11.5 months. The surgical decision was made regarding increased swelling with functional/esthetic discomfort in 83% of cases. Partial parotidectomy was performed in most cases. Postoperative complications occurred in 16% of cases although no permanent complication was observed. No recurrence was observed in our series. Histologically, 92% of tumors were classic lipomas. Lipomas can be clinically misleading since 30% of patients in our series showed an indurated mass on palpation. Preoperative imaging, especially MRI, is the cornerstone of their management as it allows very accurate lipoma diagnosis. Since in our series, diagnosis of lipoma had been made preoperatively in all cases, the surgical excision could be delayed and finally surgical decision has been made for esthetic and/or functional considerations in more than 80% of cases.

INTRODUCTION: Patients with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) display a significant risk to develop a metachronous second primary neoplasia (MSPN). HPV and non-HPV-related OPSCC are 2 distinct entities with biological, clinical and prognostic differences. The aims of our study were to analyze the impact of tumor HPV status and other relevant clinical factors, such as tobacco and/or alcohol (T/A) consumption, on the risk and distribution of MSPN in OPSCC patients and to assess the impact of MSPN on patient survival. MATERIAL AND METHODS: All OPSCC patients treated from 2009 to 2014 were included in this multicentric retrospective study. P16 immunohistochemical expression was used as a surrogate maker of tumor HPV status. The impact of tumor p16 status on the risk of MSPN was assessed in uni- and multivariate analyses. Overall survival (OS) was determined by Kaplan-Meier analysis. RESULTS: Among the 1291 patients included in this study, 138 (10.7%) displayed a MSPN which was preferentially located in the head and neck area (H&N), lung and esophagus. Multivariate analyses showed that p16- tumor status (p = 0.003), T/A consumption (p = 0.005) and soft palate tumor site (p = 0.009) were significantly associated with a higher risk of MSPN. We found no impact of p16 tumor status on the median time between index OPSCC diagnosis and MSPN development, but a higher proportion of MSPN arising outside the H&N, lung and esophagus was found in p16 + than in p16- patients. MSPN development had an unfavorable impact (p = 0.04) on OS only in the p16 + patient group. CONCLUSION: P16 tumor status and T/A consumption were the main predictive factors of MSPN in OPSCC patients. This study provides crucial results with a view to tailoring global management and follow-up of OPSCC patients.

INTRODUCTION: Although Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)-driven oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) prognosis is significantly better than that of other head and neck cancers, up to 25% of cases will recur within 5 years. Data on the pattern of disease recurrence and efficiency of salvage treatment are still sparse. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Observational study of all recurrent OPCs diagnosed, following a curative intent treatment, in seven French centers from 2009 to 2014. p16 Immunohistochemistry was used to determine HPV status. Clinical characteristics, distribution of recurrence site, and treatment modalities were compared by HPV tumor status. Overall survival was examined using Kaplan-Meier and multivariate Cox regression modeling. RESULTS: 350 recurrent OPC patients (246 p16-negative and 104 p16-positive patients). The site of recurrence was more frequently locoregional for p16-negative patients (65.4% versus 52.9% in p16-positive patients) and metastatic for p16-positive patients (47.1% versus 34.6% in p16-patients, p = 0.03). Time from diagnosis to recurrence did not differ between p16-positive and p16-negative patients (12 and 9.6 months, respectively, p-value = 0.2), as the main site of distant metastasis (all p-values ≥0.10). Overall and relapse-free survival following the first recurrence did not differ according to p16 status (p-values from log-rank 0.30 and 0.40, respectively). In multivariate analysis, prognosis factors for overall survival in p16-negative patients were distant metastasis (HR 2.11, 95% CI 1.30-3.43) and concurrent local and regional recurrences (HR 2.20, 95% CI 1.24-3.88). CONCLUSION: With the exception of the initial site of recurrence, the pattern of disease relapse and the efficiency of salvage treatment are not different between p16-positive and negative OPCs.

INTRODUCTION: Patients with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) display a significant risk of synchronous primary neoplasia (SPN) which could impact their management. The aims of this study were to evaluate the risk and distribution of SPN in OPSCC patients according to their HPV (p16) status, the predictive factors of SPN and the impact of SPN on therapeutic strategy and oncologic outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: All OPSCC patients treated from 2009 to 2014 were included in this multicentric retrospective study. Univariate analyses were conducted using Chi-2 and Fisher exact tests. For multivariate analyses, all variables associated with a p ≤ 0.10 in univariate analysis were included in logistic regression models. RESULTS: Among the 1291 patients included in this study, 75 (5.8%) displayed a SPN which was preferentially located in the upper aerodigestive tract, lung and esophagus. Comorbidity level (p = 0.03), alcohol (p = 0.005) and tobacco (p = 0.01) consumptions, and p16 tumor status (p < 0.0001) were significant predictors of SPN. In multivariate analysis, p16+ status was significantly associated with a lower risk of SPN (OR = 0.251, IC95% [0.133;0.474]). Patients with a SPN were more frequently referred for non-curative treatment (p = 0.02). In patients treated with curative intent, there was no impact of SPN on the therapeutic strategy (surgical vs. non-surgical treatment). We observed no overall survival differences between patients with or without SPN. CONCLUSION: P16 tumor status is the main predictive factor of SPN in OPSCC patients. This study provides crucial results which should help adapt the initial work-up and the global management of OPSCC patients.

INTRODUCTION: Therapeutic management of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCC) is still debated. Since the role of HPV was demonstrated, few studies have focused on HPV-negative OPSCC. The aim of our study was to assess the impact of therapeutic strategy (surgical vs. non-surgical) on oncologic outcomes in patients with HPV-negative OPSCC. MATERIAL AND METHOD: All p16-negative OPSCCs treated from 2009 to 2014 in 7 tertiary-care centers were included in this retrospective study and were classified according to the therapeutic strategy: surgical strategy (surgery ± adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy) vs. non-surgical strategy (definitive radiotherapy ± chemotherapy). Patients not eligible for surgery (unresectable tumor, poor general-health status) were excluded. Univariate, multivariate and propensity score matching analyses were performed to compare overall (OS), disease-specific (DSS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). RESULTS: Four hundred seventy-four (474) patients were included in the study (surgical group: 196; non-surgical group: 278). Five-year OS, DSS and RFS were 76.5, 81.3 and 61.3%, respectively, in the surgical group and 49.9, 61.8 and 43.4%, respectively, in the non-surgical group. The favorable impact of primary surgical treatment on oncologic outcomes was statistically significant after multivariate analysis. This effect was more marked for locally-advanced than for early-stage tumors. Propensity score matching analysis confirmed the prognostic impact of primary surgical treatment for RFS. CONCLUSION: Therapeutic strategy is an independent prognostic factor in patients with p16-negative OPSCC and primary surgical treatment is associated with improved OS, DSS and RFS. These results suggest that surgical strategy is a reliable option for advanced stage OPSCC.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of the initial therapeutic strategy on oncologic outcomes in patients with HPV-positive OPSCC. METHODS: All p16-positive OPSCCs treated from 2009 to 2014 in 7 centers were retrospectively included and classified according to the therapeutic strategy: surgical strategy (surgery ± adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy) vs. non-surgical strategy (definitive radiotherapy ± chemotherapy). Univariate, multivariate propensity score matching analyses were performed to compare overall (OS), disease-specific (DSS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). RESULTS: 382 patients were included (surgical group: 144; non-surgical group: 238). Five-year OS, DSS and RFS were 89.2, 96.8 and 83.9% in the surgical group and 84.2, 87.1 and 70.4% in the non-surgical group, respectively. These differences were statistically significant for DSS and RFS after multivariate analysis, but only for RFS after propensity score matching analysis. CONCLUSION: In p16+ OPSCC patients, upfront surgery results in higher RFS than definitive radiotherapy ± chemotherapy but does not impact OS.

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of early oral hydration on the incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF) after total laryngectomy (TL) or total pharyngolaryngectomy (TPL). METHODS: A prospective series of 25 patients operated on between October 2017 and March 2019 who received early oral hydration starting 2 days after surgery were compared to a retrospective cohort of 28 patients who did not receive any early oral hydration. These are two consecutive series including all operated patients. RESULTS: There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of risk factors for PCF. In univariate and multivariate analysis, early oral hydration was significantly associated with a decreased risk of PCF: 50% vs 20% (odds ratio [OR], 0.25; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.07-0.85; P = .03, vs OR, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.07-0.85; P = .02). CONCLUSION: Early oral hydration after TL or TPL reduces the risk of PCF.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the impact of tonsillectomy on the detection of the primary tumor, based on p16 immunohistochemistry analysis, in patients with cervical unknown primary of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC-CUP). METHODS: This was a retrospective study of 63 patients, included from January 2008 to December 2017 in a single institution. All patients had an initial assessment with physical examination, CT scan of the neck and chest, whole body FDG-PET CT, and endoscopy under general anesthesia, which failed to determine the primary tumor. RESULTS: Forty-seven out of the 63 patients had an ipsi- or bilateral tonsillectomy which revealed 12 tonsil cancers (26%). The tonsil primary was ipsilateral to positive nodes in 10 cases, contralateral in 1 case and, in 1 case, the patient had bilateral neck involvement. The analysis of the p16 status was carried out in 41/63 patients (65%). Among the 32 patients who had a p16 analysis and tonsillectomy, the rate of primary detection was 59% (10/17) for p16-postives and 0% (0/15) for p16-negatives (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that an extended work-up should be systematically proposed including bilateral tonsillectomy (+/- mucosectomy of the base of tongue) in SCC-CUP p16-positive patients but not in p16-negatives.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: The purposes of this study were to assess the evolution of quality of life (QoL) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) undergoing oncologic surgery and to determine the predictive factors of post-therapeutic QoL. METHODS: All HNSCC patients who underwent primary surgery, between 2012 and 2014, were enrolled in this prospective multicentric study. Patients completed the EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-H&N35 questionnaires before surgery and at 6 months after treatment. Predictive factors of post-therapeutic QoL scores were determined. RESULTS: A total of 200 patients were included in this study. There was no significant deterioration of global QoL and no significant increase in general symptoms between the pre- and post-therapeutic periods, but a significant deterioration in role and social functioning, and an increase of most head and neck symptoms. Tumor stage, tumor site and treatment modalities (type of surgery, adjuvant therapy) were the main predictors of QoL scores. We found a negative correlation between satisfaction with the information received and global QoL score or several functioning scales. CONCLUSION: HNSCC surgical treatment affects patients QoL mainly by increasing head and neck symptoms, which results in social and role functioning deterioration. These results are of great interest to improve multidisciplinary care of HNSCC patients.
