[PMID: 38341629 DOI: 10.1002/ohn.678] [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: 10/20/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (TBSCC) is a rare malignancy with poor prognosis, and optimal treatment for advanced cases is uncertain. Our systematic literature review aimed to assess 5-year survival outcomes for advanced TBSCC across different treatment modalities. DATA SOURCES EMBASE, Medline, PubMed, and Web of Science. REVIEW METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines for articles published between January 1989 and June 2023. RESULTS The review yielded 1229 citations of which 31 provided 5-year survival data for TBSCC. The final analysis included 1289 patients. T classification data was available for 1269 patients and overall stage for 1033 patients. Data for 5-year overall survival (OS) was 59.6%. Five-year OS was 81.9% for T1/2 and 47.5% for T3/4 (P < .0001). OS for T1/T2 cancers did not significantly differ between surgery and radiation (100% vs 81.3%, P = .103). For advanced-stage disease (T3/T4), there was no statistical difference in OS when comparing surgery with postoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) (OS 50.0%) versus surgery with postoperative radiotherapy (XRT) (OS 53.3%) versus definitive CRT (OS 58.1%, P = .767-1.000). There was not enough data to assess the role of neoadjuvant CRT. CONCLUSION Most patients will present with advanced-stage disease, and nodal metastasis is seen in nearly 22% of patients. This study confirms the prognostic correlation of the current T classification system. Our results suggest that OS did not differ significantly between surgery and XRT for early stage disease, and combined treatment modalities yield similar 5-year OS for advanced cancers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyse prognostic factors and survival outcomes of malignant tumors of the external auditory canal, to investigate the role of regional surgery, and adjuvant radiotherapy in early stages and to investigate the role of surgery in operable T4 stage. SETTING A retrospective analysis was conducted on all patients prospectively included in the national database of the French Expertize Network for Rare ENT Cancers (REFCOR) from January 2000 to December 2016. PARTICIPANTS 103 patients from 19 reference centers were included. A propensity score matching analysis was applied to enable comparisons between treatments. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Event-free survival, overall survival and factors of poor prognosis of the cohort were described. The interest of local and regional surgery and postoperative radiotherapy were evaluated. RESULTS The factors of poor prognosis on event-free survival were immunosuppression (p = 0.002), Karnofsky status less than 90% (p = 0.02), body mass index less than 19 Kg / m2 (p = 0.0009), peripheric facial palsy (p = 0.0016), and positive margin (p = 0.0006). In early stages, locoregional surgery was associated with an increase in event-free survival (p = 0.003, HR = 0.21) versus local surgery alone, while postoperative radiotherapy was not associated with an increase in event-free survival (p = 0.86, HR = 0.91) or overall (p = 0.86, HR = 0.91). In locally advanced stages, locoregional surgery followed by radiotherapy was associated with an increase in event-free survival (p = 0.03, HR = 0.39) and overall (p = 0.02, HR = 0.34) versus chemoradiotherapy alone. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE Regional surgery is recommended for early stages of cancers of the external auditory canal. In operable cases, locoregional surgery followed by radiotherapy is recommended.

Abstract
Objective Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the external auditory canal (EAC) is a rare malignancy with various treatment strategies and outcomes. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics and survival outcomes and identify prognostic factors in patients with SCC of EAC. Methods Twenty-one patients with SCC of EAC treated in a single tertiary center between 2009 and 2021 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. The modified Pittsburgh classification system was applied for staging. Factors associated with survival were identified by univariate survival analysis. Results The mean age at diagnosis was 61 years (range: 41-79 years). Early-stage (T1 + T2) accounts for 38.1% of the series and advanced-stage (T3 + T4) accounts for 61.9%. Eighteen (85.7%) patients underwent primary surgery with curative intent. The 5-year overall survival rate of the 21 patients was 67.4%. Tumor invasion to the otic capsule, eustachian tube, sigmoid sinus, and dura were associated with poor prognosis in univariate analysis (p = .046; .008; .027; and .08, respectively). Conclusions Factors predictive of less favorable survival include the history of COM, tumor invasion to the otic capsule, eustachian tube, sigmoid sinus, and dura. It is important to make a precise and systemic preoperative evaluation of disease extent. Level of Evidence 4.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Squamous cell carcinoma of the external auditory canal (EACSCC) is a rare condition. However, a standard treatment has not yet been established. We retrospectively evaluated the efficacy, adverse events, and feasibility of TPF-CCRT (concomitant chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil) in patients with advanced EACSCC. METHODS Thirty-five consecutive patients with advanced EACSCC (T3, T4) initially treated with TPF-CCRT at Kobe University Hospital were included. T4 diseases with invasion of the brain, internal carotid artery, or internal jugular vein were classified as T4b, and those without these features were classified as T4a. RESULTS Five-year overall survival rates for T3 and T4 were 100% and 64.2%, respectively. A significant difference was observed between T4a and T4b (82.4% vs. 30%, p = 0.007). Five-year progression-free survival rates of T3, T4a, and T4b were 100%, 68%, and 20% (p = 0.022), respectively. CONCLUSIONS TPF-CCRT should be considered as a plausible treatment option for advanced EACSCC.

Abstract
Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics and surgical outcomes of patients with external auditory canal (EAC) and temporal bone (TB) malignancy with dura invasion. Methods The medical records of patients with EAC and TB malignancy with dura invasion were retrospectively reviewed. Survival outcomes (overall survival [OS], disease-specific survival [DSS], recurrence-free survival [RFS], and distant metastasis-free survival [DMFS]) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results A total of eight patients were included in this study. The median age at diagnosis was 49.5 years (range 12-74 years). The median follow-up periods were 46.5 months. Histologically, four out of eight patients were diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC; 50%). The 2-year OS and DSS rates of all patients were 62.5%, and those of EAC SCC patients were 50% and 66.7%, respectively; while the 2-year RFS and DMFS rates of all patients were 37.5%. There was one local recurrence at the resection site (12.5%), two regional neck nodal recurrences (25%), and two distant metastases (25%). Dura resection and duroplasty areas were not involved in the local recurrence case. Conclusion In EAC and TB cancer with dura invasion, radical surgery with dura resection may show similar survival outcomes to previous studies without recurrence at the dura resection site.Level of evidence: IV.

Abstract
Temporal bone malignant tumors are characterized by atypical clinical symptoms, and easy recurrence and metastasis. They account for 0.2% of head and neck tumors, and the most common pathological type is squamous cell carcinoma. Patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone are often at advanced stages when diagnosed, and lose the chance for surgery. Neoadjuvant immunotherapy has recently been approved as the first-line treatment for refractory recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. However, it remains to be determined whether neoadjuvant immunotherapy can be used as the first-line treatment for temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma to reduce the tumor stage before surgery, or as a palliative treatment for patients with unresectable advanced stage carcinoma. The present study reviews the development of immunotherapy and its clinical application in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, summarizes the treatment of temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma, and prospects the neoadjuvant immunotherapy as the first-line treatment for temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the survival outcomes and potential prognostic factors of patients with temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (TBSCC) treated at our institution. METHODS We retrospectively included patients who were diagnosed with TBSCC between 2008 and 2019. The Kaplan-Meier (KM) method was used to describe overall survival (OS), and the association between baseline characteristics and prognoses was examined using Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS Fifty consecutive patients with TBSCC were included in this study. The results showed that patients with advanced modified Pittsburgh (MPB)- T classifications had a poorer prognosis (T3 vs. T1-2: HR: 2.81, 95% CI: 0.34-23.43; T4 vs. T1-2: HR: 7.25, 95% CI: 0.95-55.41; p = 0.041). Meanwhile, middle ear squamous cell carcinoma (MESCC) showed a significantly worse prognosis than external auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma (EACSCC, HR: 2.65, 95% CI: 1.04-6.76, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS MESCC and advanced MPB-T classifications might be considered predictors of unfavorable outcomes in patients with TBSCC, indicating that special attention should be paid to the original tumor subsite and tumor extension in the management of patients with TBSCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Temporal bone mucosal melanomas (MMs) are rare, and patients may experience delays in diagnosis and treatment. Our objective was to better characterize the presentation, diagnosis, treatment modalities, and outcomes of this process. DATA SOURCES PubMed/Medline, CINAHL (EBSCOhost), and Web of Science databases were searched in all languages without restriction of publication dates. STUDY SELECTION Inclusion criteria included that the article was either a case report or a case series with individual case data. All non-English articles were excluded if the corresponding abstract lacked data on demographics, initial presentation, and clinical management. DATA EXTRACTION After full-text analysis, data pertaining to demographics, diagnosis, medical and surgical management modalities, and outcomes were extracted. DATA SYNTHESIS Data were qualitatively synthesized, and means and averages were obtained for all continuous variables. Overall survival was measured by the Kaplan-Meier method, and significance was measured through log-rank testing. CONCLUSIONS Clinicians should suspect temporal bone MM in the differential diagnosis of patients with bloody otorrhea in the context of a chronic serous otitis media or an associated cranial nerve palsy. If suspected, physicians should not delay the acquisition of a biopsy or imaging studies. Management is highly variable and must be decided on a case-by-case basis. Outcomes remain poor because of the high propensity for MM to metastasize.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (TBSCC) is rare and often confers a poor prognosis. The aim of this study was to synthesize survival and recurrence outcomes data reported in the literature for patients who underwent temporal bone resection (TBR) for curative management of TBSCC. We considered TBSCC listed as originating from multiple subsites, including the external ear, parotid, and external auditory canal (EAC), or nonspecifically from the temporal bone. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and manual search of bibliographies. REVIEW METHOD A systematic literature review conducted in December 2020 according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. RESULTS Survival data were collected from 51 retrospective studies, resulting in a pooled cohort of 501 patients with TBSCC. Compared to patients undergoing lateral TBR (LTBR), patients undergoing subtotal (SBTR) or total (TTBR) TBR exhibited significantly higher rates of stage IV disease (P < .001), positive surgical margins (P < .001), facial nerve involvement (P < .001), and recurrent disease (P < .001). A meta-analysis of 15 studies revealed a statistically significant 97% increase in mortality in patients who underwent STBR or TTBR. On multivariate analysis, recurrent disease was independently associated with worse overall survival (P < .001). On univariate analysis, facial nerve involvement was also associated with decreased overall survival (P < .001). CONCLUSION Recurrent disease was associated with risk of death in patients undergoing TBR. Larger prospective multi-institutional studies are needed to ascertain prognostic factors for a wider array of postoperative outcomes, including histology-specific survival and recurrence outcomes.

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.

Association of gene mutations with clinicopathologic features in patients with external auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma. Int J Clin Oncol 2022; 27:1394-1403. [PMID: 35698008 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-022-02191-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 05/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND External auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma (EACSCC) is a rare form of malignant tumor. Due to the extremely limited understanding of the genomic landscape in EACSCC, the association between gene mutations and clinicopathologic features remains unclear. This study aimed to explore somatic gene mutations associated with the clinicopathological features in patients with EACSCC, and to identify the candidate gene mutations for predicting survival outcome in EACSCC. METHODS Twenty-two tissue samples obtained from patients with EACSCC were analyzed for genetic mutations based on targeted next-generation sequencing and genetic expression based on IHC staining to investigate the driver of tumorigenesis and/or the candidates of genes for predicting clinical outcome in EACSCC. RESULTS Gene alterations were most frequently observed in TP53 (59.1%), followed by CREBBP (9.1%). TP53 mutations showed significant correlation with T classification (P = 0.027) and p53 expression phenotype (P < 0.001). The 5-year overall survival (OS) rates for EACSCC patients with TP53 mutations and wild-type TP53 were 45.0% and 75.0%, respectively. Multivariable analysis using the Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated that TP53 mutations were independent predictors of OS rates for EACSCC patients (P = 0.007). CONCLUSION This study has suggested that TP53 mutations have potential for use as a biomarker for identifying individuals at high risk of developing tumors and for predicting survival outcome in EACSCC. IHC staining for p53 might play a useful role as screening tool for detecting TP53 mutations in patients with EACSCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the outcomes for patients after lateral temporal bone resection surgery for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma, and to ascertain predictors of survival and treatment failure. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of the medical records for all patients who underwent lateral temporal bone resection for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma between 2007 and 2019 in Western Australia. RESULTS Thirty-seven patients underwent lateral temporal bone resection surgery. Median follow-up duration was 22 months. Twenty-five patients had squamous cell carcinoma and 12 had basal cell carcinoma. The overall survival rate at two years for patients with squamous cell carcinoma was 68.5 per cent. Pre-operative facial nerve involvement (determined via clinical or radiological evidence) was identified as a predictor of mortality (hazard ratio = 3.411, p = 0.006), with all patients dying before two years post-operatively. Locoregional tumour control was achieved in 81 per cent of cases (n = 30). CONCLUSION Lateral temporal bone resection offers acceptable local control rates and survival outcomes. Caution should be used in offering this surgery to patients with clinical or radiological evidence of facial nerve involvement because of the relatively poorer survival outcomes in this subgroup.

Abstract
Background A universally acknowledged cancer staging system considering all aspects of the T‐, N‐, and M‐classifications for middle ear squamous cell carcinoma (MESCC) remains absent, limiting the clinical management of MESCC patients. Materials and Methods A total of 214 MESCC patients were extracted from the SEER (the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results) database between 1973 and 2016. The relationships between patient’s characteristics and prognoses were analyzed by Kaplan–Meier and Cox proportional hazards regression models. Novel staging schemes for MESCC were designed by adjusted hazard ratio (AHR) modeling method according to the combinations of Stell’s T‐classification and the eighth AJCC N‐ and M‐classifications, of which performances were evaluated based on five criteria: hazard consistency, hazard discrimination, explained variation, likelihood difference, and balance. Results T‐classification was the most significant prognostic factor for MESCC patients in multivariable analysis (p = 0.021). The N‐ and M‐classifications also had obvious prognostic effect but were not statistically significant by multivariate analysis due to the limited metastasis events. Three novel staging schemes (AHR‐Ⅰ–Ⅲ models, different combination of T‐ and N‐classifications) and ST (solely derived from Stell’s T‐classification) were developed, among which the AHR‐Ⅰ staging scheme performed best. Conclusions Tumor extension, quantified by Stell’s T‐classification, is the most significant prognostic factor for MESCC patients. However, our AHR‐Ⅰ staging scheme, a comprehensive staging scheme that integrating T‐, N‐, and M‐classifications, might be an optimal option for clinical practitioners to predict MESCC patients’ prognosis and make proper clinical decisions.

Abstract
We examined the role of lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) in the treatment of external ear canal (EAC) carcinoma between 2007 and 2018. The estimated 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) according to the tumor stage and treatments were investigated in 36 patients with EAC squamous cell carcinoma. T stage classification according to the University of Pittsburgh staging system was as follows: 14 patients in T1, four patients in T2, nine patients in T3, and nine patients in T4. The 3-year DFS rate was 77.4% for T1 tumors, 100% for T2, 44.4% for T3 tumors, and 11.1% for T4 tumors (p < 001). The 3-year DSS rate was 100% for T1/T2 tumors, 87.5% for T3 tumors, and 11.1% for T4 tumors (p < 0.01). T1/T2 patients received mostly LTBR. Among nine T3 tumors, five patients (56%) received LTBR combined with preoperative chemotherapy and/or postoperative radiation (RT). Four of them had negative surgical margin and survived with no evidence of disease. The DFS of T3 patients who underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy and LTBR was 0 and 80%, respectively (p = 0.048). For T1/T2 tumors, surgery achieved an excellent outcome. For T3 tumors, LTBR achieved negative surgical margin and showed good survival when combined with preoperative chemotherapy and/or postoperative RT. In contrast, the prognosis of T3 patients who could not undergo surgery was as poor as that of T4 patients. Therefore, in addition to subtotal temporal bone resection, LTBR-based treatment strategy may be a treatment option for limited cases of T3 patients.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to reveal the influence of the invasion site of external auditory canal (EAC) cancer by analyzing the outcome of patients with advanced tumor. METHODS A total of 111 patients with T4 EAC cancer were enrolled in this study. Of these patients, 79 underwent chemoradiotherapy and 32 underwent surgery under curative intent. Univariate and multivariate analyses and the Kaplan-Meier method were used to focus on the tumor invasion sites and overall survival of the patients. RESULTS The 3-year overall survival rate of all patients was 55.0%. In multivariate analysis, the only significant invasion site for overall survival was the facial nerve, with the dura mater being the next most influential site. When Kaplan-Meier survival curve was calculated, facial nerve and dura mater were the significant factors resulting in poor patient outcomes. CONCLUSION The facial nerve and dura mater are crucial sites of EAC cancer for patient outcomes.

Abstract
Background Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the external auditory canal (EAC) is a rare disease, which is commonly classified with the modified Pittsburgh classification. Our aim was to evaluate the predictive performance of this classification in relation to disease‐free survival (DFS). Methods We examined retrospective data from a nationwide Dutch cohort study including patients with primary EAC SCC. These data were combined with individual patient data from the literature. Using the combined data, the predictive performances were calculated using the c‐index. Results A total of 381 patients were included, 294 for clinical and 281 for the pathological classification analyses. The c‐indices of the clinical and the pathological modified Pittsburgh classification predicting DFS were 0.725 (0.668‐0.782) and 0.729 (0.672‐0.786), respectively. Conclusion The predictive performance of the modified Pittsburgh classification system as such appears to be acceptable to predict the DFS of EAC SCC. Other factors need to be added to a future model to improve the predicted performance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for patients with advanced cancer of the external auditory canal (EAC) by analyzing the outcome of the patients. METHODS This is a multi-institutional retrospective survey, and we reviewed the medical records of the subjects. A total of 181 patients with tumor (T)3 or T4 tumor in 17 institutions were enrolled. Further analysis was performed for 74 patients who underwent CRT under curative intent. RESULTS Overall 5-year survival rates of the patients who underwent CRT (n = 74) were 54.6%. Those of the patients who underwent CRT with modified TPF (docetaxel, cisplatin [CDDP], and 5-fluorouracil) regimen (n = 50) and CRT with CDDP regimens (n = 24) were 64.4% and 36.7%, respectively. Significant differences were observed between these two groups. CONCLUSION Given the tendency that head and neck surgeons prefer CRT for advanced larger cancer of the EAC, CRT for advanced EAC cancer using the modified TPF regimen showed good clinical outcomes.

Resection of carcinoma of the external auditory canal in a patient with a high jugular bulb using temporal craniotomy. Auris Nasus Larynx 2020; 48:535-538. [PMID: 32404263 DOI: 10.1016/j.anl.2020.03.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2019] [Revised: 03/24/2020] [Accepted: 03/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
External auditory canal (EAC) carcinoma is a rare and unusual malignancy. The complex anatomy and relationship between the tumor and surrounding tissues in a limited space render it difficult to attain safe resection margins during surgery. A high jugular bulb (HJB) is one such anatomical variation that has important surgical implications that complicate the surgical procedure for EAC carcinoma. A 73-year-old woman presented with a 3-month history of right ear pain. Pathological findings and computed tomography (CT) revealed EAC carcinoma, which was expanding to the middle ear (ME). Although there was no cavity inside the ME, an HJB was detected. Surgical treatment using a temporal incision for temporal craniotomy achieved complete resection of the tumor and preserved facial nerve function. The patient recovered without complications and was discharged 17 days after the operation. Temporal incision and temporal craniotomy is a useful approach for EAC carcinoma with HJB.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The extreme rarity of temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (TB-SCC) has delayed the accumulation of high-quality clinical evidence. For the purposes of retrospective meta-analysis in the future, a large dataset with information from various institutions would be ideal. Our objective here was to retrospectively review cases of TB-SCC encountered at a single tertiary referral center and explore survival outcomes and prognostic factors. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review. METHODS The medical records of all TB-SCC cases were retrospectively reviewed. The resulting dataset contained 71 cases of primary cancer eligible for initial definitive (curative) treatment. RESULTS T4 status was associated with lower disease-specific 5-year survival than T1 to T3 staging (T1: 100%, T2: 92%, T3: 86%, T4: 51%). Survival was significantly higher in operable than in inoperable cases, even when restricted to advanced (T3/T4) cancers. The tumor extension to the middle ear cavity was observed in 13/17 of T3 cases, but it was not associated with poor survival. In addition, among operable cases, negative surgical margins were associated with significantly higher survival than positive margins. CONCLUSIONS Definitive treatments can offer disease-specific 5-year survival of over 85% in T1 to T3 cases of TB-SCC. The tumor extension to the middle ear cavity is not associated with poor survival. T4 status, inoperability, nodal invasion, and positive surgical margin are identified as a predictor of poor prognosis. Still, the matter of how to deal with unresectable tumors remains an outstanding issue in the treatment of TB-SCC. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 131:E583-E589, 2021.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This retrospective review aims to analyze epidemiological trends related to temporal bone cancer, and primarily of the squamous cell subtype. Potential trends analyzed included age, gender, and geographical location. DATA SOURCES This retrospective review analyzed data found in the National Cancer Institute's SEER Database for cases of carcinomas of the middle ear. Cases were selected between 1975 and 2016 and using the primary site of Middle Ear (Site code C30.1), and then narrowed using additional variables, which included age, sex, and state-county. Languages covered included English. DATA EXTRACTION The extracted data was entered into an Excel spreadsheet for further analysis in SPSS Version 25. DATA SYNTHESIS An Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) and a Bonferroni correction were applied to the data for further analysis of significant trends. The data was then placed into tables outlining the distribution of cases among select patient characteristics of age and sex, and significant age group pairwise comparisons. CONCLUSIONS Age at diagnosis of temporal bone cancer is strongly associated with the prevalence of temporal bone cancer. We urge providers to consider subtypes of temporal bone cancer, including squamous cell carcinoma, when evaluating older adults with risk factors for temporal bone cancer and an abnormal physical exam.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The rarity of temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma (TBSCC) precludes a clear understanding of the disease and approach to its management. This review provides general background on the disease and discusses the current and emerging oncologic and rehabilitative management options. DATA SOURCES PubMed literature review. METHODS A review of the current literature was conducted to assess and collate up-to-date information regarding TBSCC management. RESULTS TBSCC is a rare and aggressive disease arising in the ear canal, temporal bone, or extratemporal sites. Prior radiation, chronic ear disease, or habitual ear picking may contribute to primary disease development. Because the symptoms of TBSCC and benign otologic disease are similar, TBSCC diagnosis may be delayed, allowing the tumor time to spread throughout the anatomically intricate temporal bone. The extent of the disease is determined based on imaging and is usually staged with the Pittsburgh Staging System. Temporal bone resection with parotidectomy and neck dissection is the current standard of care. Survival is generally good for early disease and poor for advanced disease, but chemotherapy is emerging as a promising treatment option. Auditory rehabilitation with osseointegrated hearing aids is recommended at initial oncologic resection. CONCLUSIONS The knowledge of and outcomes for TBSCC have improved with time, but because of the aggressive nature of the disease and the anatomic intricacy of the temporal bone, TBSCC treatment is complex and should be delivered by a multidisciplinary team. Inter-institutional collaboration may accelerate research for this rare disease. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 5.

Abstract
Disregarding the widely used division of skull base into anterior and lateral, since the skull base should be conceived as a single anatomic structure, it was to our convenience to group all those approaches that run from the antero-lateral, pure lateral and postero-lateral side of the skull base as “Surgery of the lateral skull base”. “50 years of endeavour” points to the great effort which has been made over the last decades, when more and more difficult surgeries were performed by reducing morbidity. The principle of lateral skull base surgery, “remove skull base bone to approach the base itself and the adjacent sites of the endo-esocranium”, was then combined with function preservation and with tailoring surgery to the pathology. The concept that histology dictates the extent of resection, balancing the intrinsic morbidity of each approach was the object of the first section of the present report. The main surgical approaches were described in the second section and were conceived not as a step-by-step description of technique, but as the highlighthening of the surgical principles. The third section was centered on open issues related to the tumor and its treatment. The topic of vestibular schwannoma was investigated with the current debate on observation, hearing preservation surgery, hearing rehabilitation, radiotherapy and the recent efforts to detect biological markers able to predict tumor growth. Jugular foramen paragangliomas were treated in the frame of radical or partial surgery, radiotherapy, partial “tailored” surgery and observation. Surgery on meningioma was debated from the point of view of the neurosurgeon and of the otologist. Endolymphatic sac tumors and malignant tumors of the external auditory canal were also treated, as well as chordomas, chondrosarcomas and petrous bone cholesteatomas. Finally, the fourth section focused on free-choice topics which were assigned to aknowledged experts. The aim of this work was attempting to report the state of the art of the lateral skull base surgery after 50 years of hard work and, above all, to raise questions on those issues which still need an answer, as to allow progress in knowledge through sharing of various experiences. At the end of the reading, if more doubts remain rather than certainties, the aim of this work will probably be achieved.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Carcinomas of the temporal bone are rare, and appropriate treatment, staging, and survival data are limited. This study evaluates clinical characteristics and survival rates for patients with temporal bone carcinoma treated with resection at a single tertiary-care institution, with a focus on the outcomes of patients with locally advanced disease including skull base and/or dural invasion. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review. METHODS Demographic, tumor-specific, and survival data were collected for patients with primary carcinomas of the external auditory canal with involvement of the temporal bone from 2003 to 2015. All patients were staged according to the modified Pittsburgh system. Kaplan-Meier and logistic regression analysis were used to calculate factor-specific survival outcomes. RESULTS Sixty-seven patients met inclusion criteria; 85% were male. There were 43 squamous cell carcinomas (64%) and 24 basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) (36%). Tumor stage was 24 (36%) T2, 12 (18%) T3, and 31 (46%) T4 tumors; 53% had recurrent disease. Surgical management included 49 lateral temporal bone resections and 18 subtotal temporal bone resections. Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed more favorable 5-year survival rates associated with BCC histology (P = .01), lateral temporal bone resection compared to subtotal temporal bone resection (P < .01), lack of immunocompromise (P = .04), and absence of perineural/lymphovascular invasion (P = .01). Multivariate regression analysis did not yield statistically significant results. CONCLUSIONS Factors predictive of more favorable survival include lack of immunocompromise, BCC histology, absence of perineural/lymphovascular invasion, and disease extent amenable to lateral temporal bone resection. Dural invasion is not an absolute contraindication to surgery, with a subset of patients surviving >5 years. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 130:E11-E20, 2020.

Comparison of the University of Pittsburgh staging system and the eighth edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer TNM classification for the prognostic evaluation of external auditory canal cancer. Int J Clin Oncol 2018; 23:1029-1037.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose was to compare survival differences between patients with external auditory canal (EAC) cancer treated according to the University of Pittsburgh modified TNM staging system and those treated in accordance with the 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging manual on the TNM staging system for cutaneous cancers of the head and neck. METHODS We performed a retrospective, single-institution review of 60 patients with EAC cancer treated with curative intent between September 2002 and March 2018. Survival outcomes were measured on the basis of the two staging systems. RESULTS The C-index values for the overall survival (OS) rate revealed that the University of Pittsburgh staging system had higher prognostic accuracy than the 8th edition of the AJCC staging system. Univariable and multivariable analysis showed that T classification according to the University of Pittsburgh staging system was an independent predictor of the OS rate (hazard ratio 5.25; 95% confidence interval 1.38-24.9; P = 0.015). Meanwhile, the AJCC staging system could not differentiate T2 from T3-4 cancers. CONCLUSION The University of Pittsburgh staging system for patients with EAC cancer is a valuable tool for use in clinical decision-making and predicting survival outcome.

Abstract
Objectives This article aims to clarify the long-term outcomes of patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone who underwent concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Design and Setting The study design was a retrospective chart review. Patients and Methods From December 2001 to June 2014, 23 patients with cancer of the temporal bone who were treated by CCRT at the Tohoku University Hospital and the Iwate Medical University Hospital were enrolled in this study. For advanced cancer of the temporal bone, a modified docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (TPF) regimen was used for CCRT. The long-term outcomes, including prognoses and late complications, were analyzed after CCRT of patients with cancers of the temporal bone. Results The main long-term complications were stenosis of the external auditory canal and conductive hearing loss. No harmful late complications were observed in these patients. Disease-specific survival rates were 84.9% for all patients, 100% for patients of stage I, II, and III ( n = 10), and 75.5% for patients of stage IV ( n = 13) at 5 years. Conclusions Our study showed that CCRT is an effective treatment choice for squamous cell carcinoma of the temporal bone. Furthermore, CCRT using the TPF regimen is a safe and effective initial treatment for patients with advanced cancers of the temporal bone.

Abstract
High recurrence rates and poor survival rates for late stage/advanced temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma with the standard treatments continues to be a significant challenge to otolaryngologists. Targeted therapy for temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma after relapse has not been reported. Here we present a 58-year-old man who was diagnosed with recurrent temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma and treated with a regimen developed using whole exome sequencing. Somatic mutations in genes encoding catenin beta 1 and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 were identified in the patient’s tumor sample compared to the normal tissue. The patient was then treated with Bevacizumab in combination with pemetrexed. After two weeks of treatment, tumor volume was reduced by 95% measured by MRI, and the Visual Analogue Scale headache scores went down from 10/10 to 2/10. Our results reveal novel gene mutations of temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma and demonstrate, for the first time, an effective targeted therapy for temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma. The successful treatment regimen of bevacizumab and pemetrexed may provide a new treatment option for treating recurrent temporal bone squamous cell carcinoma that fails to respond to conventional tumor resection, radiotherapy, and/or chemotherapy.
