Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify survival rates and potential prognostic factors of ovarian squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), offering valuable insights for clinical decision making. METHODS Leveraging the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database, we selected 11 078 serous carcinoma (SC) patients and 198 OSCC patients based on predetermined criteria diagnosed from 2000 to 2020. We compared the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) before and after propensity score matching (PSM) in two groups. Prognostic differences were also compared between OSCC and SC groups at different stages. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to investigate the impact of clinical and pathologic variables on the survival of patients with OSCC. Finally, we developed and validated a nomogram predictive model. RESULTS OSCC tumors exhibited distinct characteristics, being relatively larger, more frequently unilateral, and better differentiated than SC tumors. After PSM, Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed significantly lower survival rates for OSCC patients in Stages IIB-IV, while Stages IA-IC displayed comparable survival. Independent risk factors for OSCC patients included advanced age, single marital status, higher tumor stage, and increased tumor size. Conversely, higher median household income and chemotherapy emerged as independent protective factors. Our predictive model and nomogram accurately forecasted patient survival rates in both SEER and internal validation datasets. CONCLUSION OSCC patients face significantly poorer prognosis than their SC counterparts, except in the very early stages. Higher median household income was associated with better OSCC survival.

Abstract
Importance Oncocytic (Hürthle cell) thyroid carcinoma is a follicular cell-derived neoplasm that accounts for approximately 5% of all thyroid cancers. Until recently, it was categorized as a follicular thyroid carcinoma, and its management was standardized with that of other differentiated thyroid carcinomas. In 2022, given an improved understanding of the unique molecular profile and clinical behavior of oncocytic thyroid carcinoma, the World Health Organization reclassified oncocytic thyroid carcinoma as distinct from follicular thyroid carcinoma. The International Thyroid Oncology Group and the American Head and Neck Society then collaborated to review the existing evidence on oncocytic thyroid carcinoma, from diagnosis through clinical management and follow-up surveillance. Observations Given that oncocytic thyroid carcinoma was previously classified as a subtype of follicular thyroid carcinoma, it was clinically studied in that context. However, due to its low prevalence and previous classification schema, there are few studies that have specifically evaluated oncocytic thyroid carcinoma. Recent data indicate that oncocytic thyroid carcinoma is a distinct class of malignant thyroid tumor with a group of distinct genetic alterations and clinicopathologic features. Oncocytic thyroid carcinoma displays higher rates of somatic gene variants and genomic chromosomal loss of heterozygosity than do other thyroid cancers, and it harbors unique mitochondrial DNA variations. Clinically, oncocytic thyroid carcinoma is more likely to have locoregional (lymph node) metastases than is follicular thyroid carcinoma-with which it was formerly classified-and it develops distant metastases more frequently than papillary thyroid carcinoma. In addition, oncocytic thyroid carcinoma rarely absorbs radioiodine. Conclusions and Relevance The findings of this review suggest that the distinct clinical presentation of oncocytic thyroid carcinoma, including its metastatic behavior and its reduced avidity to radioiodine therapy, warrants a tailored disease management approach. The reclassification of oncocytic thyroid carcinoma by the World Health Organization is an important milestone toward developing a specific and comprehensive clinical management for oncocytic thyroid carcinoma that considers its distinct characteristics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little is known about death hazard and conditional survival of oncocytic cell carcinoma of the thyroid (OCC). METHODS Patients diagnosed with OCC between 2004 to 2019 were obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the actuarial disease-specific survival (DSS). The annual hazard rate of death was depicted employing the hazard function. Based on the life-table method, the conditional DSS was calculated. RESULTS In terms of DSS rates, there were statistically significant differences among the different stages (P < 0.01). Annual hazard curves for mortality from OCC in the entire study participants demonstrated an overall decreasing tendency with two peaks at 3 and 10 years. In patients with distant disease, the death risk curve was the steepest and decreased quickly and evidently. Conditional DSS tended to increase over time in the entire study population. Patients with distant disease showed more significant alterations than those patients with local or regional disease. CONCLUSIONS Prognosis improved over time in patients with OCC. The largest increase in conditional DSS was observed in patients with distant disease. Conditional survival may provide more relevant prognostic information than conventional survival estimates and allow personalized follow-up and counseling.
