ABSTRACT
Background. Surgical treatment of clinically negative neck in maxillary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the upper jaw is controversial. The purpose of this study was to define the incidence of cervical metastasis and to assess if elective neck dissection is justified when the neck is not primarily affected. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed 20 patients treated of SCC of the maxillary alveolus and hard palate between 2005 and 2012. Results. Six (30%) patients presented with cervical lymph metastasis at initial diagnosis. Two of the14 patients who initially had no signs of metastasis in the neck developed cervical metastasis during follow-up and another patient with cervical metastasis at diagnosis developed contralateral cervical metastasis. All the patients with cervical metastasis (45%) were pT3/T4 SCC. Cervical metastasis developed at a mean of 11.6 months. Conclusions. Despite this study being limited by its retrospective nature and the sample size, based on our findings and on an extensive review of the literature, we may conclude that cervical metastasis from maxillary alveolus and hard palate SCC appears most frequently in pT3/T4 tumors. Therefore, we find elective neck dissection appropriate for patients with pT3/T4 SCC of the upper jaw (AU)
RESUMEN
Introducción. El tratamiento quirúrgico del cuello clínicamente negativo en el carcinoma de células escamosas (CCE) del maxilar superior es controvertido. El objetivo de este estudio es mostrar la incidencia de metástasis cervical y analizar si la disección cervical electiva está justificada cuando el cuello no está afectado de inicio. Métodos. Revisamos retrospectivamente 20 pacientes tratados por CCE de paladar duro y reborde alveolar superior entre 2005 y 2012. Resultados. Seis (30%) pacientes presentaron metástasis cervical de inicio. Dos de los 14 pacientes que inicialmente no tuvieron signos de metástasis cervical la desarrollaron durante el seguimiento, y otro paciente con metástasis cervical al inicio desarrolló una metástasis cervical contralateral. Todos los pacientes con metástasis cervical (45%) fueron pT3/T4 CCE. El tiempo medio de aparición de metástasis cervical fue de 11,6 meses. Conclusiones. A pesar de las limitaciones de este estudio (naturaleza retrospectiva, limitado número de pacientes), y tras analizar los resultados obtenidos y revisar la literatura, podemos concluir que la metástasis cervical de CCE de maxilar superior aparece con mayor incidencia en tumores pT3/T4. Por lo tanto, creemos conveniente realizar disección cervical electiva en pacientes con CCE T3/T4 de maxilar superior (AU)
