[PMID: 37921374 DOI: 10.1002/lary.31129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Revised: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To document 10-year oncologic outcome of primary total laryngectomy (TL) for patients with cT3-4M0 endolaryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). STUDY DESIGN Observational inception cohort of 531 patients with isolated untreated endolaryngeal cT3-4M0 SCC review over 40 years using STROBE guideline. 94% of patients were followed until death or for a minimum of 10 years. SETTING Academic tertiary referral care center. METHODS All patients underwent primary TL. Prior tracheotomy, induction chemotherapy, thyroid gland resection, level II-IV neck dissection, level VI dissection, and postoperative radiation therapy were associated in 6%, 40%, 43%, 89%, 47%, and 74% of cases, respectively: The main objective was to determine the 10-year actuarial local control estimate. Accessory objectives comprised screening for clinical variables increasing the risk of local recurrence, and analysis of long-term oncologic consequences of local recurrence. RESULTS The 10-year actuarial local control estimate was 89.7%. Local recurrence was salvaged in 11% of cases, resulting in 92% overall local control. On multivariate analysis, none of the study variables correlated with local recurrence. Local recurrence resulted in significantly reduced nodal control, distant metastasis control, and survival. Postoperative complications, persistent index SCC, intercurrent disease, and metachronous second primary cancer accounted for respectively 3%, 37%, 33%, and 28% of the 334 deaths noted during the 10 years following TL. CONCLUSION The present study underscored the long-term oncologic efficacy of primary TL, the dangers of local recurrence, the key role of local control for survival, and the importance of a long-term oncologic watch policy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 134:2288-2294, 2024.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES To investigate the prognostic impact of different tumor invasion patterns in the surgical treatment of T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data of 91 patients with T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. RESULTS We found that the posterior invasion being significantly associated with involvement of the lamina of cricoid cartilage (P < 0.001), arytenoid cartilage (P = 0.001), and subglottic (P = 0.001). There was no statistical difference in survival outcomes between the total laryngectomy (TL) group and the partial laryngectomy (PL) group, but in the PL group, tumors with anterior invasion were associated with a better 5-year DFS than tumors with posterior invasion (HR: 4.681, 95% CI: 1.337-16.393, P = 0.016), and subglottic involvement was associated with worse LRRFS (HR: 3.931, 95% CI: 1.054-14.658, P = 0.041). At the same time, we found that involvement of the lamina of cricoid cartilage was an independent risk factor for postoperative laryngeal stenosis in PL patients (HR: 11.67, 95% CI: 1.89-71.98, P = 0.008). CONCLUSION Selectively performed PL can also achieve favorable oncological outcomes comparable to those of TL. Posterior invasion and subglottic involvement are independent prognostic factors for recurrence after PL in T3 glottic laryngeal cancer, and involvement of the lamina of cricoid cartilage is associated with postoperative laryngeal stenosis. The tumor invasion pattern of patients with laryngeal cancer should be further subdivided to allow for selection of a more individualized treatment plan.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 14:1238775. [PMID: 38495474 PMCID: PMC10940438 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1238775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives This study aimed to investigate the clinico-ultrasound features of primary squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid (PSCCT) and secondary SCCT (SSCCT) and evaluate the accuracy of fine needle aspiration (FNA) recommendation for SCCT with American College of Radiology-Thyroid Imaging and Reporting Data System (ACR-TIRADS) and Chinese-TIRADS (C-TIRADS). Materials and methods We retrieved 26 SCCT patients (11 PSCCT, 15 SSCCT) from our hospital's pathology database (5,718 patients with thyroid malignancy) over 23 years. Medical records and ultrasound data of the 26 patients with 27 SCCTs were analyzed retrospectively, and each SCCT focus was categorized based on the two TIRADSs. Results For 26 patients (21 males, 5 females) with an age range of 42-81 years, rapidly enlarging thyroid/neck nodules (18/26, 69.2%), dysphagia (7/26, 26.9%), hoarseness (6/26, 23.1%), dyspnea (5/26, 19.6%), cough (4/26, 15.4%), neck pain (2/26, 7.7%), B symptoms (2/26, 7.7%), and blood in sputum (1/26, 3.8%) were presented at diagnosis. Five asymptomatic patients (5/26, 19.2%) were detected by ultrasound. Hoarseness was more common in PSCCT (5/11, 45.5%) than in SSCCT (1/15, 6.7%) (P=0.032). For 27 SCCTs with a mean size of 3.7 ± 1.3 cm, the ultrasound features consisted of solid (25/27, 92.6%) or almost completely solid composition (2/27, 7.4%), hypoechoic (17/27, 63%) and very hypoechoic echogenicity (10/27, 37%), irregular/lobulated margin with extra-thyroidal extension (27/27, 100%), taller-than-wide shape (13/27, 48.1%), punctate echogenic foci (6/27, 22.2%), hypervascularity (23/27, 85.2%) and involved neck lymph (13/26, 50.0%). A total of 27 SCCTs were evaluated as high malignancy risk stratification (≥TR4 and 4B) by the two TIRADSs and recommended FNA in 96.3-100% (26/27, 27/27). Pathologically, more than half of PSCCTs (7/12, 58.3%) and a quarter of SSCCTs (4/15, 26.7%) were poorly differentiated, while moderately and well-differentiated grades were observed in 5 PSCCTs and 11 SSCCTs (P=0.007). Thirteen patients (50.0%) underwent surgery with radical operation in 5 cases (5/13, 38.5%). Conclusion SCCT is an extremely rare and aggressive malignancy with a male predominance. PSCCT and SSCCT had similar clinical and ultrasound features except for tumor differentiation and the symptom of hoarseness. SCCT showed a high malignancy risk stratification in ACR-TIRADS and C-TIRADS, with a high rate of FNA recommendation.

Abstract
Objective:To investigate the prognostic impact of different tumor invasion patterns in the surgical treatment of T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 91 patients with T3 glottic laryngeal cancer. Results:Among the 91 patients, 58 cases (63.7%) had anterior invasion and 33 cases (36.3%) had posterior invasion. The posterior invasion was significantly correlated with invasions of the dorsal plate of cricoid cartilage (P<0.001), arytenoid cartilage (P= 0.001), and subglottic region(P = 0.001). There was no statistical difference in survival outcomes between the total laryngectomy group and the partial laryngectomy group. But in the partial laryngectomy group, the 5-year disease-free survival(DFS) of patients with anterior invasive tumors was better than that of patients with posterior invasion tumors (HR: 4.681, 95%CI 1.337-16.393, P=0.016), and subglottic invasion was associated with worse loco-regional recurrence-free survival(LRRFS)(HR: 3.931, 95%CI 1.054-14.658, P=0.041). At the same time, we found that involvement of the dorsal plate of cricoid cartilage was an independent risk factor for postoperative laryngeal stenosis in partial laryngectomy patients (HR:11.67, 95%CI 1.89-71.98,P=0.008). Conclusion:Compared with total laryngectomy, selected partial laryngectomy can also achieve favorable oncological outcomes. Posterior invasion and subglottic extension are independent prognostic factors for recurrence of partial laryngectomy in T3 glottic laryngeal cancer, and the involvement of the dorsal plate of cricoid cartilage is associated with postoperative laryngeal stenosis. The tumor invasion pattern of laryngeal cancer should be further subdivided in order to select a more individualized treatment plan.

Funct Integr Genomics 2022; 22:1-13. [PMID: 35474406 DOI: 10.1007/s10142-022-00862-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2021] [Revised: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
New evidence suggests that abnormal expression of circular RNA (circRNA) is associated with the development of human cancers. This study aims to reveal circMYOF roles in the malignant phenotype of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). The expression of circMYOF, microRNA (miR)-145-5p, and orthodenticle homeobox 1 (OTX1) was detected by quantitative real-time PCR. Cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis were determined using colony formation assay and EdU assay, wound healing assay, transwell assay, and flow cytometry, respectively. Protein expression was examined by western blot analysis. Cell glycolysis was assessed by detecting glucose consumption and lactate production. Mice xenograft models were constructed to evaluate the regulation of circMYOF on LSCC tumorigenesis. The regulatory relationships among circMYOF, miR-145-5p, and OTX1 were identified using dual-luciferase reporter assay and RIP assay. Serum exosomes were isolated to confirm the existence of circMYOF in LSCC patients. CircMYOF was upregulated in LSCC tissues and cells, and its knockdown suppressed LSCC cell growth, metastasis, and glycolysis, as well as inhibited LSCC tumor growth. MiR-145-5p had decreased expression in LSCC, and it could be sponged by circMYOF. The inhibition effect of circMYOF lentivirus short hairpin RNA (sh-circMYOF) on LSCC progression was restored by the inhibitor of miR-145-5p (in-miR-145-5p). Also, OTX1 was targeted by miR-145-5p and was positively regulated by circMYOF. MiR-145-5p could repress LSCC progression, and OTX1 overexpression also eliminated this effect. In addition, we found that circMYOF was significantly overexpressed in the serum exosomes of LSCC patients. Our data revealed that circMYOF contributed to LSCC progression by promoting cell growth, metastasis, and glycolysis through miR-145-5p/OTX1 axis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
One third of all head and neck cancers are caused by laryngeal cancer. However, the incidence and prevalence rates have decreased over the past 3 decades. Neck metastasis from cancer larynx is important to be addressed as its presence greatly reduces the probability of survival. However, quality of life should be taken into consideration. Hence, it was important to analyze factors related to neck metastasis from primary laryngeal cancer to detect any change of tumor behavior with time.
Results
One hundred thirty-eight patients underwent concomitant neck dissection with laryngectomy (total or partial). Supraglottic tumors had the greatest share in the neck metastasis with a count of 11 (of 26 neck metastasis), representing 42% and a total value of 11 (of 30 total supraglottic cancer) representing a tendency of spread in 37% of the total case number. Tumor midline crossing was present in 77% cases (20 of 26) with positive nodes, representing a P value 0.05.
Conclusion
This study investigated different factors related to lymph node metastasis from primary laryngeal tumor. The most important factors were the site of the tumor and its relation to the midline.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Locally advanced laryngeal cancers can spread to the thyroid gland by direct invasion of cricothyroid membrane. The prevalence of thyroid gland invasion (TGI) and the predictive factors of TGI were well described in literature. However, the association of TGI with survival was undetermined yet. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of TGI on survival rates in patients with locally advanced laryngeal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical records of 91 patients who underwent total laryngectomy with thyroidectomy were retrospectively reviewed. Demographical, clinical, and histopathological characteristics of the patients were noted. Kaplan-Meier test was used for survival analysis. RESULTS Histopathology reports revealed the prevalence of TGI as 14.3% (13/91). Survival analyses showed that TGI did not affect recurrence free (p = .078) and overall (p = .080) survival rates. CONCLUSIONS Thyroid gland invasion is one of the characteristic features of locally aggressive laryngeal tumors. In this study, TGI is not a statistically significant prognostic factor that has impact on survival of the patients with locally advanced laryngeal cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Management of recurrent laryngeal cancer presents a major challenge, and salvage laryngectomy is complicated by previous oncologic treatments. Thyroidectomy as part of salvage laryngectomy adds a nonnegligible degree of morbidity. The purpose of this study is to assess the rate of thyroid gland invasion in patients undergoing salvage laryngectomy to determine relevant predictive factors. STUDY DESIGN Case series with chart review. SETTING Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Guy's Hospital, London, United Kingdom. METHODS A retrospective review of patients undergoing salvage laryngectomy between 2009 and 2019 was undertaken. Preoperative cross-sectional imaging and histopathological analysis were performed to define evidence and predictors of thyroid gland invasion (TGI). RESULTS Fifty-one patients had salvage laryngectomy. Histological evidence of TGI was found in 4 patients (7.8%). No significant relationship was found between histological TGI and subsite of primary carcinoma, degree of differentiation, T staging, or radiological TGI. Preoperative computed tomography had a high negative predictive value for TGI. CONCLUSION Thyroidectomy should be carefully considered in patients undergoing salvage laryngectomy, and its extent should be defined on an individual basis. Total thyroidectomy should not routinely be performed in salvage laryngectomy or pharyngolaryngectomy in patients with no preoperative radiological evidence of TGI on cross-sectional imaging, unless there is intraoperative evidence of TGI.

Abstract
Background: Incidence of thyroid gland invasion in advanced laryngeal cancers is low. Ipsilateral or total thyroidectomy along with total laryngectomy has been controversial and there has been no consensus over the management of thyroid gland in advanced laryngeal cancers.Objective: To determine the frequency of thyroid gland invasion in locally advanced laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma and the risk factors associated with it.Material and methods: A retrospective review of patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma operated at our center between January 2011 and December 2018 was carried out. Patients undergoing upfront or salvage laryngectomy with or without neck dissection along with hemi or total thyroidectomy were included. Histopathology reports were reviewed to record the involvement of thyroid gland.Results: Invasion of thyroid gland by squamous cell carcinoma larynx was seen in 10 (10.9%) patients out of 92. All of the cases showed direct extension of the tumor. Trans-glottic, subglottic, and tumors with extra laryngeal spread were found to be significantly associated with thyroid gland invasion. Patients with thyroid gland invasion showed higher rate recurrence.Conclusion and significance: Incidence of thyroid gland invasion in squamous cell carcinoma larynx is low, allowing us not to address thyroid routinely in patients undergoing total laryngectomy for laryngeal carcinoma.
