Al Sayed A, Labib H. Radiological examination of greater palatine canal medial wall dehiscence. Surg Radiol Anat 2024; 46:1825-1832. [PMID: 39316148 DOI: 10.1007/s00276-024-03488-6] [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: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 09/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/25/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The greater palatine canal (GPC) connects the pterygopalatine fossa to the greater palatine foramen and houses vital neurovascular structures, which provide sensory innervation and circulation to the gums, palate, and nasal cavity. The GPC is of great clinical importance to various medical specialties; however, the anatomical variability of the GPC poses a risk of iatrogenic injury and complications. Therefore, understanding the normal anatomy and variations of the GPC is crucial for identifying vital structures and minimizing risks in clinical practice. PURPOSE The aim was to fill a gap in the current literature by focusing on the prevalence of GPC medial wall dehiscence, a lesser-known anatomic variation, in radiological scans. METHODS A total of 200 head and neck CT scans were examined, where 71 scans met the inclusion criteria. Statistical significance for incidence of GPC medial wall dehiscence, in reference to sex and side, was measured. RESULTS The GPC medial wall dehiscence was observed in 69% of scans. Bilateral dehiscence was seen in 57.7% of scans, while right-sided and left-sided unilateral dehiscence were found in 14.1% and 11.3%, respectively. Significant difference was found between the incidence of bilateral dehiscence compared to the absence of dehiscence. CONCLUSION Previous studies have highlighted the potential risks associated with invasive procedures involving the GPC. The clinical relevance of GPC medial wall dehiscence lies in the increased risk of transecting the contained neurovascular bundle. The presence of dehiscence emphasizes the need for meticulous preoperative radiologic analysis to tailor surgical approaches to individual patient anatomy.

Alterations in nasal airflow and air conditioning after endoscopic nasopharyngectomy for recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma: a pilot computational fluid dynamics study. Comput Methods Biomech Biomed Engin 2024:1-14. [PMID: 39323204 DOI: 10.1080/10255842.2024.2406368] [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: 05/03/2024] [Revised: 09/09/2024] [Accepted: 09/13/2024] [Indexed: 09/27/2024]
Abstract
Endoscopic nasopharyngectomy represents a significant intervention for recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Various surgical techniques, including transnasal and transoral approaches, are employed. However, the impact of these procedures on nasal airflow dynamics is not well understood. This computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study aimed to investigate alterations in nasal airflow and air conditioning following endoscopic nasopharyngectomy. A 55-year-old male patient with recurrent NPC was selected, whose CT data were utilized for image reconstruction. A preoperative model and two postoperative models, including the transnasal and transoral approach models, were established. The airflow patterns and various CFD parameters were analyzed. In the postoperative models, the high-speed airflow went along the soft palate and into the nasopharyngeal outlet, and there was the low-speed turbulence in the expanded nasopharyngeal cavity. Compared to the preoperative model, the postoperative models exhibited reductions in surface-to-volume ratio, nasal resistance, airflow velocity and proportion of high wall shear stress regions in nasopharynx. The changing trends of nasopharyngeal air temperature and humidity in the preoperative and transoral models were consistent. The heating and humidification efficiency decreased in the transnasal model compared to the transoral model. The endoscopic nasopharyngectomy for recurrent NPC affects the nasal airflow and warming and humidification function. The transoral approach has less influence on aerodynamics of the upper airway compared to the transnasal approach. From a CFD perspective, the endoscopic nasopharyngectomy does not increase the risk of postoperative complications, including the empty nose syndrome and the carotid blowout syndrome.

Salvage endoscopic nasopharyngectomy for recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma in a non-endemic area. Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol 2024; 281:3601-3613. [PMID: 38480535 PMCID: PMC11211200 DOI: 10.1007/s00405-024-08500-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze oncological outcomes of endoscopic surgical treatment of locally recurrent EBV-related undifferentiated non-keratinizing nasopharyngeal carcinoma (uNK-NPC) in a non-endemic area. METHODS Retrospective review of patients affected by recurrent uNK-NPC treated with nasopharyngeal endoscopic resection (NER) in a tertiary-care referral center from 2003 to 2022, by evaluating survival rates, prognostic factors, and follow-up strategies. RESULTS The oncological outcomes of 41 patients were analyzed, over a mean follow-up period of 57 months. The 5-year overall, disease-specific, and disease-free survival of the cohort were 60.7% ± 8.9%, 69% ± 9%, and 39.7% ± 9.2%, respectively. The local (rT) and regional (rN) extension of recurrent disease, stage of disease, and status of resection margins appeared to significantly influence survivals. After a mean follow-up period of 21 months, a further recurrence after NER was observed in 36.6% of cases. Skull base osteonecrosis induced by previous irradiation and post-surgical bone remodeling represent the major challenges for early detection of further local relapses during postoperative follow-up. CONCLUSION NER appeared as a safe and effective treatment for recurrent uNK-NPC. The adequate selection of patients eligible for NER is essential, to maximize the chances to cure and minimize the risk of local complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND [18 F]-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has the ability to detect local and/or regional recurrence as well as distant metastasis. We aimed to evaluate the prognosis value of PET/CT in locoregional recurrent nasopharyngeal (lrNPC). METHODS A total of 451 eligible patients diagnosed with recurrent I-IVA (rI-IVA) NPC between April 2009 and December 2015 were retrospectively included in this study. The differences in overall survival (OS) of lrNPC patients with and without PET/CT were compared in the I-II, III-IVA, r0-II, and rIII-IVA cohorts, which were grouped by initial staging and recurrent staging (according to MRI). RESULTS In the III-IVA and rIII-IVA NPC patients, with PET/CT exhibited significantly higher OS rates in the univariate analysis (P = 0.045; P = 0.009; respectively). Multivariate analysis revealed that with PET/CT was an independent predictor of OS in the rIII-IVA cohort (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.476; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.267 to 0.847; P = 0.012). In the rIII-IVA NPC, patients receiving PET/CT sacns before salvage surgery had a better prognosis compared with MRI alone (P = 0.036). The recurrent stage (based on PET/CT) was an independent predictor of OS. (r0-II versus [vs]. rIII-IVA; HR = 0.376; 95% CI: 0.150 to 0.938; P = 0.036). CONCLUSION The present study showed that with PET/CT could improve overall survival for rIII-IVA NPC patients. PET/CT appears to be an effective method for assessing rTNM staging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal neoplasms, whether benign and malignant, pose a significant challenge to clinicians and represent a model area for multidisciplinary collaboration in order to optimize patient care. The International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors (ICSNT) aims to summarize the best available evidence and presents 48 thematic and histopathology-based topics spanning the field. METHODS In accordance with prior International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology documents, ICSNT assigned each topic as an Evidence-Based Review with Recommendations, Evidence-Based Review, and Literature Review based on the level of evidence. An international group of multidisciplinary author teams were assembled for the topic reviews using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses format, and completed sections underwent a thorough and iterative consensus-building process. The final document underwent rigorous synthesis and review prior to publication. RESULTS The ICSNT document consists of four major sections: general principles, benign neoplasms and lesions, malignant neoplasms, and quality of life and surveillance. It covers 48 conceptual and/or histopathology-based topics relevant to sinonasal neoplasms and masses. Topics with a high level of evidence provided specific recommendations, while other areas summarized the current state of evidence. A final section highlights research opportunities and future directions, contributing to advancing knowledge and community intervention. CONCLUSION As an embodiment of the multidisciplinary and collaborative model of care in sinonasal neoplasms and masses, ICSNT was designed as a comprehensive, international, and multidisciplinary collaborative endeavor. Its primary objective is to summarize the existing evidence in the field of sinonasal neoplasms and masses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The study was designed to identify new landmarks in the parapharyngeal segment of the internal carotid artery (ICA) for nasopharyngectomy and describe a surgical procedure of endoscopic endonasal transpterygoid nasopharyngectomy (EETPN). METHODS Four cadaveric specimens were injected with colored silicone and subjected to CT scanning before dissection. The nasopharyngeal skull base was exposed using the endoscopic endonasal transpterygoid approach. The clinical data of four patients with nasopharyngeal malignances who underwent EETPN were reviewed. RESULTS The lateral edge of the longus capitis muscle medially; the foramen lacerum, petrous apex spine and the stump of the levator veli palatini muscle superior laterally; and the upper parapharyngeal ICA laterally constitute the ICA-longus capitis muscle-petrous apex spine triangle which was a novel landmark for the upper parapharyngeal segment of the ICA. CONCLUSION The ICA-longus capitis muscle-petrous apex spine triangle are important landmarks of the upper parapharyngeal segment of the ICA.

Abstract
PURPOSE Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) has been recognized as an effective treatment modality for paranasal sinus diseases. Over the past decade, continuum robots (CRs) for ESS have been studied, but there are still some challenges. This paper presents a review on the scientific studies of CRs for ESS. METHODS Based on the analysis of the anatomical structure of the paranasal sinus, the requirements of CRs for ESS are discussed. Recent studies on rigid robots, handheld flexible robots, and CRs for ESS are presented. Surgical path planning, navigation, and control are also included. RESULTS Concentric tube CRs and cable-driven CRs have great potential for applications in ESS. The CRs incorporated with multiple replaceable arms with different functions are preferable in ESS. CONCLUSION Further study on navigation and control is required to improve the performance of CRs for ESS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postradiation skull base osteoradionecrosis (ORN) is a severe complication that occurs after radiotherapy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) that can severely affect quality of life (QOL) and be life threatening. Only 13.4% - 28.6% of patients can be cured by traditional repeated endoscopic debridement. Here, we introduced salvage endoscopic surgery for skull base ORN patients and evaluated its clinical efficacy. METHODS This was a prospective, observational, single-arm clinical study. Clinical data from 18 skull base ORN patients who underwent radical endoscopic necrectomy followed by reconstruction using a septal pedicled mucosal flap or temporal muscle flap were included in the study. The endpoint was an overall survival (OS) of 2 years. The numeric rating scale (NRS) scores for pain and foul odor were analyzed to determine the efficacy and safety of this surgery. RESULTS A total of 21 patients were recruited, 18 of whom completed the study and were analyzed. All surgeries were successfully performed. During the 2-year study, the OS rate of the entire cohort was 75%. The median NRS score for pain decreased from 6.44 +- 2.62 to 0.50 +- 0.71, and the NRS score for foul odor decreased from 1.89±1.08 to 1 after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Salvage endoscopic necrectomy followed by construction using a septal pedicled mucosal flap or temporal muscle flap is a novel, safe, and effective treatment for ORN in patients with NPC. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was approved by the independent ethics committee of the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital of Fudan University (IEC No. 2019095-1). Written informed consent was obtained from all patients. The study was registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial registry (ChiCTR2000029327).

Abstract
BACKGROUND American Joint Committee on Cancer/Union for International Cancer Control (AJCC/UICC) rT staging have great clinical impracticality. The aim of the present study was to establish a new rT staging to guide endoscopic surgery for the treatment of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC). METHODS This surgical rT staging (named Fudan rT staging) was constructed using two significant risk factors: the distance from the tumor margin to the internal carotid artery, and dural invasion. Log-rank and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were used to evaluate its effectiveness. RESULTS Fudan rT staging can effectively separate the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with rNPC according to the different rT stages (p < 0.05). In addition, ROC analysis showed that the Fudan rT staging exhibited enhanced prognostic value for OS and PFS compared with the AJCC/UICC rT staging. CONCLUSIONS The innovative Fudan rT staging has a better predictive value for the survival of patients with rNPC than AJCC/UICC rT staging.

Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of various salvage treatments to treat locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (IrNPC). A comprehensive search was conducted to gather relevant research publications on salvage treatment for IrNPC. Specifically, 2-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival were the primary outcome. A total of 89 studies with 101 cohorts were collected. Endoscopic nasopharyngectomy was found to be associated with a significantly improved 5-year OS compared with CRT (p = 0.027) and IMRT (p = 0.016). Moreover, based on recurrence T classification, the 2-, 3-, and 5-year OS were similar across different treatments. Endoscopic nasopharyngectomy was associated with a significant reduction in treatment-related complications (grade ≥ 3) compared with IMRT (p < 0.001) and open nasopharyngectomy (p = 0.028). Endoscopic nasopharyngectomy may provide comparable treatment outcomes to re-irradiation, while offering a better safety profile for selective patients with resectable IrNPC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is a reliable, minimally invasive approach for treating recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC). However, tumours involving the internal carotid artery (ICA) are considered to be unsuitable for TORS. This paper presents the first case of transoral robotic resection of advanced rNPC involving the ICA. MATERIALS AND METHODS This case is a 55 year-old male patient who received radiotherapy 27 years ago. This patient underwent a standard TORS resection 2 weeks after ipsilateral ICA embolization. RESULTS Postoperative Magnetic resonance imaging and biopsy results indicated total resection. During the 2 month follow-up, no severe complications were found, and the primary site was tumour-free. CONCLUSION This study preliminarily presents the feasibility and efficiency of advanced rNPC resection with TORS. TORS can potentially provide better quality of life for patients as a less invasive approach than current endoscopic surgery. Even so, the surgical approach should be selected strictly according to the tumour's location.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The choice between endoscopic surgery and re-radiotherapy as the main treatment modality in patients with advanced recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (rNPC) remains controversial. Therefore, in this study, we compared the efficacies of endoscopic surgery and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in patients with rNPC. METHODS All patients with advanced rNPC (T3 and T4) who underwent salvage treatment were enrolled from January 2009 to December 2020. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed using a log-rank analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses of OS were performed using a Cox regression model. Common treatment-related complications of endoscopic surgery were compared with those of IMRT. RESULTS The numbers of patients with T3 and T4 tumors were 163 (64.2%) and 91 (35.8%), respectively; 192 patients underwent endoscopic surgery, 51 received IMRT, and 11 received three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT). The 3-year OS of patients treated with endoscopic surgery was 59.3%, which was significantly higher than that of patients treated with IMRT (34.7%, p < 0.001) or 3D-CRT (43.6%, p = 0.012). Multivariate analyses showed that IMRT was an independent risk factor for OS compared with endoscopic surgery (hazard ratio, 2.068; 95% confidence interval, 1.395-3.069, p < 0.001). Complications of aural fullness (p = 0.001), nasopharyngeal necrosis (p = 0.004), nasopharyngeal hemorrhage (p = 0.004), dysphagia (p < 0.001), and cerebral infarction (p = 0.030) were significantly lower in the endoscopic surgery group than in the IMRT group. CONCLUSION Endoscopic surgery may be a more promising salvage treatment than IMRT to maximize survival and minimize treatment-related complications in advanced rNPC. These results will be significant in deciding the optimal treatment for patients with advanced rNPC.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the feasibility and effect of a pedicled submental flap in postoperative defect repair of nasopharyngeal malignant tumors. Methods Eight cases (six women, two men; age, 29–63 years) of postoperative defects after resection of malignant nasopharyngeal tumors with a lesion stage of (r) T1–3N0–2M0 were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative enhanced thin-slice computed tomography of the neck was performed to predict the submental flap reflux vein. The submental flap was prefabricated during the operation, and the nasopharyngeal mass was removed through the parapharyngeal space approach combined with nasal endoscopy/mandibular external rotation/maxillary overturning. The submental flap was elevated to the nasopharyngeal defect area through the parapharyngeal space for repair. Results Intraoperative examination confirmed that among the eight submental flaps, three had venous drainage into the internal jugular vein and five had venous drainage into the external jugular vein; these findings were consistent with the preoperative computed tomography findings. The size of the submental flap was 8–10 cm × 5–6 cm. The repair range reached the eustachian orifice on the healthy side and extended to the posterior wall of the maxillary sinus on the affected side. The flap extended to the posterior upper part of the nasal septum at the top, to the oropharynx at the bottom, and to the bony surface of the skull base at the deep side. Primary healing after surgery was achieved, and no flap necrosis occurred. After 3–77 months of follow-up, one patient with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma after radiotherapy developed cervical lymph node recurrence again, one patient with adenoid cystic carcinoma had lung metastasis, and the remaining six patients had no recurrence. Conclusions The pedicled submental flap is used to repair postoperative defects in the nasopharyngeal region through the cervical parapharyngeal space. It is a simple and fast procedure with adequate tissue volumes. The flap can effectively protect important structures such as the internal carotid artery and reduce the risk of infection and bleeding from postoperative wound exposure.

The Role of Circulating Tumor Cells in the Prognosis of Local Recurrence and Local Residual Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Undergoing Endoscopic Resection. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2022; 2022:1453792. [PMID: 36131792 PMCID: PMC9484918 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1453792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 08/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the role of circulating tumor cells in the prognosis of local recurrence and local residual nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing endoscopic surgery. Methods A total of 56 patients with locally residual nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) who underwent nasal endoscopic surgery from August 2018 to December 2021 were included. The status of circulating tumor cells (CTC) before and after surgery was detected, and its relationship with clinical characteristics and postoperative survival was analyzed. Results After nasal endoscopy, the positive rates of CTC and mesenchymal CTC (MCTC) detected in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma were significantly lower than those before treatment (P=0.0376; P=0.0212). Before nasal endoscopy, the status of CTC and MCTC was significantly correlated with the T stage (P < 0.05). After nasal endoscopy, the status of CTC and MCTC was significantly correlated with the TNM stage, T stage, and first radiotherapy mode (P < 0.05). The PFS of patients with different clinical characteristics was analyzed, and the results showed that the PFS of NPC patients with CTC (+) was significantly shorter than that of CTC (−) patients (18.71 vs. 22.47, P < 0.05) and the PFS of NPC patients with MCTC (+) was significantly shorter than that of MCTC (−) patients (18.22 vs. 22.30, P < 0.05). The PFS of NPC patients in TNM stage (I-II) was significantly longer than that in TNM stage (III) patients (22.53 vs. 18.57, P < 0.05). The PFS of NPC patients whose first radiotherapy mode was conventional was significantly longer than that of patients whose first radiotherapy mode was enhanced (22.14 vs. 16.85, P < 0.05). The COX analysis showed that MCTC and TNM stages were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of local recurrence or local residual nasopharyngeal carcinoma after endoscopic resection (P < 0.05). Conclusion The detection of CTC is helpful for the prognosis evaluation of local recurrence or local residual NPC after endoscopic resection of NPC. The MCTC is an important factor affecting the prognosis of NPC patients.

Abstract
Objective:To explore the anatomy and clinical application of submental flap in the nasopharyngectomy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods:The anatomical study of the submental flap was carried out on 5 cadavers, focusing on exploring the channel of the submental flap transposition to the nasopharyngeal skull base area, and analyzing the nasopharyngeal skull base area covered by the submental flap. A retrospective analysis of 4 patients with submental flap repairment after nasopharyngectomy was performed, and the surgical methods and techniques of submental flap to repair nasopharyngeal nasal skull base defect were introduced in detail. Rusults: It showed that the submental flap could be transposed into the nasopharyngeal skull base through the posteromedial of the mandible-posterior pterygoid muscle-parapharyngeal space channel, and could cover the paraclival internal carotid artery. Clinical practice showed that the submental flap was successfully used to repair the nasopharyngeal skull base defect in 4 patients, and the submental flap grew well in the follow-up. Conclusion:The submental flap is suitable for the repair of the nasopharyngeal skull base defect after nasopharyngeal carcinoma surgery, and it is worthy of clinical promotion.

Abstract
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is distinct from other cancers of the head and neck in biology, epidemiology, histology, natural history, and response to treatment. Radiotherapy (RT) is the cornerstone of locoregional treatment of non-disseminated disease and the association of chemotherapy improves the rates of survival. In the case of metastatic disease stages, treatment requires platinum/gemcitabine-based chemotherapy and patients may achieve a long survival time.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Recently, endoscopic nasopharyngectomy (ENPG) has become an effective treatment for locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). This article reviews recent publications on ENPG and specifically addresses the surgical anatomy of the nasopharynx and discusses several important issues regarding ENPG. RECENT FINDINGS The surgical techniques for ENPG have been previously described in several studies. The latest published data revealed good outcomes of ENPG compared with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in recurrent NPC. In addition, ENPG avoids severe reirradiation side effects. This review highlights the surgical anatomy of ENPG, which is important in preventing possible serious complications. SUMMARY ENPG is a good option for managing recurrent NPC. Careful preoperative evaluation and a full understanding of the surgical anatomy help in preventing damage to nearby critical neurovascular structure. Long-term follow-up is still needed to evaluate its eventual morbidity and efficacy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background Invasion depth influences the choice for extirpation of nasopharyngeal malignancies. This study aims to validate the feasibility of endoscopic endonasal resection of lesions with a posterolateral invasion. As a secondary goal, the study intends to propose a classification system of endoscopic endonasal nasopharyngectomy determined by the depth of posterolateral invasion.
Methods Eight cadaveric specimens (16 sides) underwent progressive nasopharyngectomy using an endoscopic endonasal approach. Resection of the torus tubarius, Eustachian tube (ET), medial pterygoid plate and muscle, lateral nasal wall, and lateral pterygoid plate and muscle were sequentially performed to expose the fossa of Rosenmüller, petroclival region, parapharyngeal space (PPS), and jugular foramen, respectively.
Results Technical feasibility of endonasal nasopharyngectomy toward a posterolateral direction was validated in all 16 sides. Nasopharyngectomy was classified into four types as follows: (1) type 1: resection restricted to the posterior or superior nasopharynx; (2) type 2: resection includes the torus tubarius which is suitable for lesions extended into the petroclival region; (3) type 3: resection includes the distal cartilaginous ET, medial pterygoid plate, and muscle, often required for lesions extending laterally into the PPS; And (4) type 4: resection includes the lateral nasal wall, pterygoid plates and muscles, and all the cartilaginous ET. This extensive resection is required for lesions involving the carotid artery or extending to the jugular foramen region.
Conclusion Selected lesions with posterolateral invasion into the PPS or jugular foramen is amenable to a resection via expanded endonasal approach. Classification of nasopharyngectomy based on tumor depth of posterolateral invasion helps to plan a surgical approach.

Abstract
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignant tumor that is highly prevalent in southern China and the Southeast Asian belt. Recent studies have shown that the T cells play important regulatory roles in tumorigenesis and progression. We test TIL cell of recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma and primary nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell. We found that T cell change in recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma and primary nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell. Based on GEO database, we selected differently expressed circRNAs in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues. qRTPCR show that some circRNAs also highly expressed in TIL cells. In conclusion, immune microenvironment changed in recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma. There is involvement of circular RNAs in this progress, with should be researched further.
