Survival Outcomes in Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the External Auditory Canal: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12072490. [PMID: 37048574 PMCID: PMC10094887 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12072490] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) of the external auditory canal (EAC) are rare tumors representing a surgical challenge. Current knowledge is based largely on case series; thus, the level of evidence is weak. This study sought to systematically review the available SCC of the EAC literature and to identify risk factors for overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS). A systematic review and meta-analysis of papers searched up to December 2022 through PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases was conducted. Quality assessment of the eligible studies was done according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Pooled univariate and multivariable analyses and meta-analysis using a random-effects or fixed-effects Mantel-Haenszel model were performed. Fifteen articles (282 patients) met the inclusion criteria and were included in the quantitative analysis. The pooled multivariable analysis revealed cT3 and cT4 as independent prognostic factors for OS (p = 0.005, and p < 0.001, respectively) and DSS (p = 0.002, and p < 0.001, respectively). Local recurrence rate was 32.3%. The meta-analysis estimated significantly higher odds ratios for advanced T categories, than cT1-T2 tumors for OS and DSS (OR = 3.55; 95% CI, 1.93–6.52, and OR = 3.73; 95% CI, 2.00–6.97, respectively). In conclusion, locally advanced tumors were associated with poor prognosis. Poor outcomes mostly occurred due to local recurrence.

Abstract
Temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma, which is rare in the clinical setting, is the most common type of temporal bone malignancy. Its rarity makes the staging, the way of temporal bone resection, the management of parotid gland and cervical lymph node, and the application of radiotherapy and chemotherapy still controversial.There is no unanimous consensus and guideline about it to date at home and abroad.This paper reviewed the recent advance in the diagnosis and treatment of temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma in the hope of providing some help and reference for the management of the disease.

Abstract
Background T4‐classified squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of external auditory canal (EAC) can potentially involve different anatomical structures, which could translate into different treatment strategies and survival outcomes within one classification. Our aim is to evaluate the clinical added value of T4‐subclasses proposed by Lavieille and by Zanoletti. Methods Retrospective data, including patients with primary operated cT4‐classified EAC SCC, was obtained from 12 international hospitals. We subclassified according to the T4‐subclasses. The treatment strategies, disease‐free survival (DFS) and overall survival per subclass were calculated. Results A total of 130 T4‐classified EAC SCC were included. We found commonly used treatment strategies per subclass according to Lavieille and the DFS seems also to differ per subclass. Subclass according to Zanoletti showed comparable treatment strategies and survival outcomes per subclass. Conclusion Our study suggests that the subclass according Lavieille might have added value in clinical practice to improve care of T4‐classified EAC SCC.

Abstract
Background Lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) is performed for stage T1-2 external ear malignant tumors and requires spatial anatomical knowledge of the rare surgical field. Objective This paper presents a novel virtual reality (VR) based surgical simulation and navigation system using only commercially available display device and an online software, to assist in the understanding of the anatomy pre and intraoperatively. Result and conclusion VR model created by 3D Slicer modules and visualized on head mounted display enabled users to simulate and learn surgical techniques of a rare surgical case. 3D hologram through HoloLens assisted the surgeon in comprehending the spatial relationship between crucial vital structures and the pathological lesion during the operation. This platform does not require the users to possess specific programming skill or knowledge, and is therefore applicable in daily clinical usage. Lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) is standard operative procedure for early-staged malignant tumors of external ear canals. However, many surgeons lack the opportunity to learn the surgical techniques because of its rarity. We report a usage of novel virtual reality based surgical simulation and navigation system for studying the anatomy and the operative steps in LTBR. 3D holograms with head-mounted display will provide revolutionary tool in assisting surgical planning, intraoperative referencing and navigation of otologic and skull base surgery.

Abstract
Currently, only lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) and subtotal temporal bone resection (STBR) are widely utilized for the surgical treatment of advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal (EAC-SCC). However, there are few descriptions of variations on these surgical approaches. This study aimed to elucidate the variations of en bloc resection for advanced EAC-SCC. We dissected the four sides of cadaveric heads to reveal the anatomical structures related to temporal bone resection. From the viewpoint of surgical anatomy, surgical patterns of temporal bone cutting can be divided into four categories: conventional LTBR, extended LTBR, conventional STBR, and modified STBR. Extended LTBR is divided into four types: superior, inferior, anterior, and posterior extensions. Several extension procedures can be combined based on the extension of the tumor. Furthermore, en bloc resection with the temporomandibular joint or glenoid fossa increases the technical difficulty of a surgical procedure because the exposure and manipulation of the petrous segment of the internal carotid artery are limited from the middle cranial fossa. Surgical approaches for advanced SCC of the temporal bone are diverse. They require accurate preoperative evaluation of the tumor extension and preoperative consideration of the exact line of resection to achieve marginal negative resection.
