Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the indications for radiotherapy in salivary gland cancer and to specify the modalities and target radiation volumes. MATERIAL AND METHODS The French Network of Rare Head and Neck Tumors (REFCOR) formed a steering group which drafted a narrative review of the literature published on Medline and proposed recommendations. The level of adherence to the recommendations was then assessed by a rating group, according to the formal consensus method. RESULTS Postoperatively, radiotherapy to the primary tumor site±to the lymph nodes is indicated if one or more of the following adverse histoprognostic factors are present (risk>10% of locoregional recurrence): T3-T4 category, lymph node invasion, extraglandular invasion, close or positive surgical margins, high tumor grade, perineural invasion, vascular emboli, and/or bone invasion. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is the gold standard. For unresectable cancers or inoperable patients, carbon ion hadrontherapy may be considered. CONCLUSION Radiotherapy in salivary gland cancer is indicated in postoperative situations in case of adverse histoprognostic factors and for inoperable tumors.

Abstract
Primary pancreatic lymphoma is a rare type of cancer, that accounts for 0.1-0.5% of lymphomas and about 0.2% of all primary pancreatic tumors. Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma is the most common subtype. The diagnosis is possible if the lymphoma is located in the pancreas, but the differential diagnosis with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is difficult. The diagnostic accuracy of endosonography-guided fine needle aspiration is inadequate, and thus it is common to diagnose these masses only after surgical resection. The endosonography-guided tissue acquisition allows greater accuracy in the pancreatic masses, as it determines optimal access to histological analysis using tissue in paraffin blocks for complementary immunohistochemical, and molecular tests. Thus, this elaborate diagnostic environment allows the adoption of appropriate treatment strategies for patients with this condition. The authors describe four cases of primary pancreatic lymphoma indicated for surgical resection due to suspected pancreatic cancer, with the diagnosis of Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma obtained by endosonography-guided tissue acquisition, changing the therapeutic strategy through the adoption of adequate chemotherapy treatment with good progress.

Abstract
We present the update of the recommendations of the French society of radiotherapy and oncology on the indications and the technical methods of carrying out radiotherapy of sinonasal cancers. Sinonasal cancers (nasal fossae and sinus) account for 3 to 5% of all cancers of the head and neck. They include carcinomas, mucosal melanomas, sarcomas and lymphomas. The management of sinonasal cancers is multidisciplinary but less standardized than that of squamous cell carcinomas of the upper aerodigestive tract. As such, patients with sinonasal tumors can benefit from the expertise of the French expertise network for rare ENT cancers (Refcor). Knowledge of sinonasal tumour characteristics (histology, grade, risk of lymph node involvement, molecular characterization, type of surgery) is critical to the determination of target volumes. An update of multidisciplinary indications and recommendations for radiotherapy in terms of techniques, target volumes and radiotherapy fractionation of the French society of radiotherapy and oncology (SFRO) was reported in this manuscript.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional protocols utilize core needle biopsy (CNB) or fine needle aspiration (FNA) to produce cell suspension for flow cytometry (FCM) is a diagnostic challenge for lymphoid malignancies. We aim to develop an alternative CNB rinsing technique (RT) to produce cell suspension for FCM during this mini-invasive procedure of CNB for lymphoma diagnosis. METHODS FNA and CNB specimens from the same lesion of 93 patients with suspected lymphoma were collected under the guidance of B-ultrasound simultaneously. The fresh CNB samples were prepared to cell suspension by RT for FCM immunophenotyping analysis (Group CNB-RT). Then, the CNB tissues after performing the RT process and the fresh FNA tissues were processed by conventional tissue cell suspension (TCS) technique to obtain the cell suspensions (Groups of CNB-TCS & FNA-TCS), respectively, as comparison. The diagnostic efficacies, as well as the concordances of the FCM results with reference to the morphologic diagnoses were compared in these three groups. RESULTS RT could yield sufficient cells for FCM immunophenotyping analysis, though a lower cell numbers compared to TCS technique. The diagnostic concordance was comparable in group CNB-RT (91.1%) to the group CNB-TCS (88.9%) and group FNA-TCS (88.4%) (p = 0.819). The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of CNB-RT (91.1%; 100%) was not inferior to that of CNB-TCS (88.9%; 100%) and FNA-TCS (88.4%; 98.8%). CONCLUSIONS This study shows the CNB-RT presented non-inferior diagnostic concordance and efficacy as compared to the TCS technique. CNB-RT has the potential to produce cell suspension for FCM immunophenotyping while preserving tissue for lymphoma diagnosis and research.

Abstract
Salivary glands carcinomas are very rare epithelial malignant tumors. In 2013 in Europe, 7800 new diagnoses were estimated, 8.5 % of all head and neck cancer. The last WHO classification (2017) counts more than 20 malignant histotypes, this variety as well as the rarity of some of them needs a skilled pathologist for diagnosis. Surgery remains the mainstay of management followed by radiation in high-grade and high-risk pathological features cases. The intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) should be preferred over conformational radiotherapy techniques as adjuvant and exclusive treatment in advanced cases. Particle radiotherapy (i.e. protons, carbon ions) can have a role in advanced/unresectable disease since it was proved to have better results over photons in loco-regional control both in adenoid cystic carcinoma and in other histotypes. Although chemotherapy is still the most frequent treatment for metastatic patients, several new compounds (i.e. anti-angiogenic agents, tailored agents, checkpoint inhibitors) are under investigation.
