Abstract
BACKGROUND The application of coagulation-related markers in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC) remains unclear. This study explored the prognostic role of coagulation markers in the progression and metastasis of LSCC. METHODS Coagulation markers of patients with LSCC receiving surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University in China, from January 2013 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed and compared with those of contemporary patients with benign laryngeal diseases. The relationship between clinicopathological features of LSCC and coagulation markers was analyzed with the chi-square and rank sum tests. The ROC curve analysis was utilized to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of seven coagulation markers for LSCC and its different clinicopathological features, and to find the optimal cutoff value of each coagulation marker. RESULTS 303 patients with LSCC and 533 patients with benign laryngeal diseases were included in the present analysis. Compared to the control group, prothrombin time (PT) (p < 0.001), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) (p = 0.001), and Fib (p < 0.001) in patients with LSCC were significantly higher, while mean platelet volume (MPV) (p < 0.001) was significantly shorter. Significant increases were detected in PT (Z = 14.342, p = 0.002), Fib (Z = 25.985, p < 0.001), platelet count (PC) (Z = 12.768, p = 0.005), PCT (Z = 9.178, p = 0.027), MPV (F = 2.948, p = 0.033) in T4 stage. Fib had the highest prognostic value among the seven coagulation markers in different T stages (AUC = 0.676, p < 0.001), N stages (AUC = 0.717, p < 0.001), tumor stage (AUC = 0.665, p < 0.001), differentiation degree (AUC = 0.579, p = 0.022), and neurovascular invasion (AUC = 0.651, p = 0.007). Fib (Z = 25.832, p < 0.001), PC (Z = 23.842, p < 0.001), and PCT (Z = 20.15, p < 0.001) in N1 and N3 stages were significantly higher than in N0 stage. PT (Z = 12.174, p = 0.007), Fib (Z = 23.873, p < 0.001), PC (Z = 17.785, p < 0.001), and PCT (Z = 14.693, p = 0.002) were significantly higher in stage IV than in stage I and II. APTT (Z=-1.983, p = 0.047), Fib (Z=-2.68, p = 0.007), PC (Z=-2.723, p = 0.006), and PCT (Z=-2.592, p = 0.01) increased significantly when the tumor invaded neurovascular tissue. CONCLUSIONS Coagulation markers have the potential to act as biomarkers for predicting pathological features of LSCC. The high level of Fib was helpful for the diagnosis of LSCC and the detection of advanced LSCC. TRIAL REGISTRATION Not applicable.

Abstract
(1) Background: Non-squamous cell laryngeal carcinoma includes endothelial tumors, such as minor salivary gland tumors, lymphoepithelial tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, soft and hard tissue sarcomas, and malignant melanomas. (2) Methods: A state-of-the-art review using the MEDLINE/PUBMED, Google Scholar, Ovid Medline, Embase, and Scopus electronic databases was performed. (3) Conclusions: In order to optimize overall treatment outcomes, a multidisciplinary, patient-centered approach to the management of non-SCC of the larynx must be adopted universally; a national or international registry on non-SCC laryngeal cancer can be useful to improve understanding about the behavior of this kind of tumor.

Abstract
The pathology of non-squamous carcinoma of the larynx is broad and there is a wide differential diagnosis. The most common presenting symptoms for laryngeal malignancies, both squamous and non-squamous, are hoarseness and dyspnea. Presentation with persistent or worsening symptoms and a submucosal lesion should raise suspicion for a non-squamous malignancy of the larynx. Accurate histology determines the most appropriate treatment and has an impact on prognosis.

Abstract
Laryngeal chondrosarcomas (LCS) are rare lesions that behave as locally aggressive tumours, producing symptoms such as dysphonia, dyspnoea, dysphagia and hoarseness. Different approaches for the treatment of LCS have been described in the literature. The main purpose of this investigation was to find all cases of LCS published to date and analyse management data and survival outcomes. In December 2020, a systematic review was performed following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and the Provider Enrollment, Chain, and Ownership System (PECOS) method including articles published up to this date on different aspects of LCS. The search included the terms larynx, laryngeal, chondrosarcoma. A total of 148 articles were included in this systematic review describing 381 cases of LCS. Dyspnoea was the most reported symptom followed by hoarseness and neck mass sensation. Cricoid cartilage was the most usual location. Survival rate was influenced by both surgical technique (log-rank = 11.7; p = 0.008) and the degree of tumour histologic differentiation (log-rank = 18.3; p = 0.003).

Abstract
The involvement of the larynx in plasma cell myeloma (PCM) may manifest as solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma of the larynx (sEMP-L) or as infiltration of the larynx during newly diagnosed or relapsed systemic disease with bone marrow involvement (plasma cell myeloma with laryngeal involvement, PCM-L). To increase knowledge about these rare conditions, we performed a retrospective analysis along with a comprehensive literature review of cases of sEMP-L or PCM-L. Six patients (two sEMP-L and four PCM-L) were identified in our tertiary laryngological centre from 2009 to 2021, constituting 0.88% of all malignant laryngeal tumours. The literature search yielded 187 cases, including 152 sEMP-L and 35 sPCM-L. A comparison of baseline characteristics between sEMP-L and PCM-L performed in the combined cohort of cases from literature review and retrospective analysis revealed that patients with sEMP-L were younger (56 vs. 64 years, p ≤ 0.001) and presented less commonly with thyroid or cricoid cartilage involvement (2.2% vs. 30.8%, p ≤ 0.001). The prognosis of sEMP-L was better than PCM-L (overall survival 86% vs. 55% at 5 years, p = 0.002). Analysis of potential factors that could influence progression-free survival (PFS) in the group of sEMP-L revealed that male sex and cartilage involvement negatively affected PFS in univariate analyses, while only cartilage involvement retained statistical significance in multivariate analysis (HR = 19.94, p = 0.024). In conclusion, PCM with laryngeal involvement is sporadic. Secondary involvement of the larynx during PCM might be more common than sEMP-L and is associated with worse survival. The involvement of cartilage adversely influences the outcome of sEMP-L.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Non-squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) malignancies are rare, but well described laryngeal pathologies. However, the epidemiology and clinical behavior of these tumors is not well studied. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS Patients diagnosed with non-squamous cell larynx cancer from 2004 to 2017 in the National Cancer Database were selected. Demographic, clinicopathologic factors, treatments, and survival were analyzed. Univariable and multivariable cox regression were performed. Survival was compared with a propensity score-matched (PSM) population of laryngeal SCC patients. RESULTS A total of 136,235 cases of larynx cancer were identified. After excluding SCC variants, 2,172 (1.6%) patients met inclusion criteria. The most common histology was chondrosarcoma (374, 17.2%), followed by small cell (345, 15.9%), and spindle cell carcinoma (268, 12.3%). The most common treatment was surgery (683, 31.4%) followed by chemoradiation (409, 18.8%) and surgery and adjuvant radiation (288, 13.3%). Overall, 3- and 5-year survival was 67.9% and 59.4%, respectively. In multivariate analysis controlling for age, stage, comorbidity, histology, and treatment modality; chondrosarcoma had the best survival (hazard ratio [HR] 0.11, confidence interval [CI] 0.07-0.19, P < .001). In a PSM population, matched for age, stage, comorbidity, and treatments; non-SCC patients had significantly lower survival (51.5% vs. 59.9%, P < .001). CONCLUSION A diverse range of non-squamous cell malignancies occur in the larynx. In general, these tumors have poor survival, with few exceptions such as chondrosarcoma. While the majority of these histologies undergo surgical-based treatments in other sites, only 53% of patients underwent surgical-based treatment in the larynx. These data could guide clinicians in determining the outcome of treatment in these patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 2022.

Abstract
Purpose Non-squamous cell carcinoma (non-SCC) accounts for about 5% of laryngeal malignancies. Survival data are limited, and consensus on management principles is lacking. The present study reviews our experience in the surgical treatment of non-metastatic non-SCC of the larynx and compares oncological and functional outcomes in a cohort of patients affected by traditional SCC. Methods We collected data on 592 patients affected by laryngeal neoplasms. Univariate and multivariable survival analyses were performed using Cox proportional-hazards models; survival estimates were reported by hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI), and survival curves were established with the Kaplan–Meier method. Results We identified 326 patients affected by untreated SCC, while 21 had non-SCC histotypes. The non-SCC cohort was composed of 5 soft tissue sarcomas, 8 chondrosarcomas, 2 adenoid cystic carcinomas, 2 neuroendocrine carcinomas, 2 solitary fibrous tumors, 1 Kaposi’s sarcoma, and 1 malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. Overall survival and disease-specific survival were not significantly different according to histology (p = 0.6 and p = 0.349, respectively). The non-SCC group showed an increased risk of recurrence (HR 5.87; CI95 2.15–16.06; p < 0.001). Nonetheless, no significant difference (p = 0.31) was found at multivariable analysis between the two groups in total laryngectomy-free survival with an organ preservation rate over 5 years of 81% for the non-SCC histologies. Conclusion Non-SCC is a broad spectrum pathology, but generalized laryngeal surgical management principles are still feasible and it is possible to identify patients amenable to conservative surgical treatment without affecting survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to compare the prognosis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) and nSCCs of the larynx.Then we established a nomogram for nSCCs of the larynx. METHODS Prognosis between the 529 pairs nSCCs of the larynx patients and LSCC patients were compared after propensity score matching (PSM). 591 nSCCs of the larynx patients were divided into the modeling and validation groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses obtain independent prognostic factors, which were then included in the nomogram to predict the 3 and 5 year survival. Prognostic accuracy of the nomogram was evaluated using the consistency index (C-index) and the calibration curve. RESULTS Prognosis of nSCCs of the larynx was poorer than LSCC. Age, race, tumor location, tumor-node-metastasis stage, and method were independent prognostic factors of nSCCs of the larynx (P < 0.05). Internal and external validation proves the nomogram reliable CONCLUSION: The nomogram showed good prognostic accuracy and would assist clinicians in making more accurate evaluations for patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To highlight various patient, tumor, diagnostic, and treatment characteristics of laryngeal chondrosarcoma (LC) as well as elucidate factors that may independently affect overall survival (OS) for LCs. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING National Cancer Database (NCDB). METHODS All LC cases from 2004 to 2016 were extracted from the NCDB. Several demographic, diagnostic, and treatment variables were compared between LC subgroups using χ2 and analysis of variance tests. Univariate and multivariate survival analyses were performed for LCs using univariate Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression models. RESULTS There were 348 LCs included in the main cohort. LCs were predominantly non-Hispanic white males with similar rates of private and government insurance (49.4% vs 45.4%). Most LCs (81.6%) underwent primary surgery, particularly partial and total laryngectomy. The 1-, 5-, and 10-year survivals for LC were 95.7%, 88.2%, and 66.3%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, lack of insurance (P = .019; hazard ratio [HR], 8.21; 95% CI, 1.40-48.03), high grade (P = .001; HR, 13.51; 95% CI, 3.08-59.26), and myxoid/dedifferentiated histological subtypes (P = .0111; HR, 10.74; 95% CI, 1.71-67.33) correlated with worse OS. No difference in OS was found between partial and total laryngectomy. CONCLUSION This is the first multivariate survival analysis and largest single cohort study of LCs in the literature. Overall, LCs enjoy an excellent prognosis, with insurance status, grade, and histology as the main predictors of survival.

Abstract
The incidence of laryngeal tuberculosis has steadily increased due to rising prevalence of HIV infection, immunosuppressive diseases and treatments, and the emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms and atypical mycobacteria. We report on a woman with a unique presentation of laryngeal tuberculosis mimicking lymphoma to remind clinicians that the diagnosis of laryngeal tuberculosis merits awareness and that delay in diagnosis poses a serious threat to the patient due to delayed treatment and further complications.
