Abstract
KEY POINTS Head and neck mucosal melanomas have a diverse mutational landscape with low mutational burden. A molecular subset (∼13%) has ROS1 mutations, which is an actionable driver mutation. ROS1-mutated patients have improved overall survival likely due to high mutational burden.

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
The nasoseptal flap is a workhorse reconstructive option for anterior skull base defects during endonasal surgery. This paper highlights the versatility of the nasoseptal flap. After providing a brief historical perspective, this review will focus on the relevant primary literature published in the last ten years. We will touch upon new applications of the flap, how the flap has been modified to expand its reach and robustness, and some of the current limitations. We will conclude by discussing what the future holds for improving upon the design and use of the nasoseptal flap in anterior skull base reconstruction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Inverted papilloma (IP) is a sinonasal tumor with a well-known potential for malignant transformation. The role of human papillomavirus (HPV) in its pathogenesis has been controversial. The purpose of this study was to determine the virome associated with IP, with progression to carcinoma in situ (CIS), and invasive carcinoma. METHODS To determine the HPV-specific types, a metagenomics assay that contains 62,886 probes targeting viral genomes in a microarray format was used. The platform screens DNA and RNA from fixed tissues from eight controls, 16 IP without dysplasia, five IP with CIS, and 13 IP-associated squamous cell carcinoma (IPSCC). Paired with next-generation sequencing, 48 types of HPV with 857 region-specific probes were interrogated against the tumors. RESULTS The prevalence of HPV-16 was 14%, 42%, 70%, and 73% in control tissue, IP without dysplasia, IP with CIS, and IPSCC, respectively. The prevalence of HPV-18 had a similar progressive increase in prevalence, with 14%, 27%, 67%, and 74%, respectively. The assay allowed region-specific analysis, which identified the only oncogenic HPV-18 E6 to be statistically significant when compared with control tissue. The prevalence of HPV-18 E6 was 0% in control tissue, 25% in IP without dysplasia, 60% in IP with CIS, and 77% in IPSCC. CONCLUSIONS There are over 200 HPV types that infect human epithelial cells, of which only a few are known to be high-risk. Our study demonstrated a trend of increasing prevalence of HPV-18 E6 that correlated with histologic severity, which is novel and supports a potential role for HPV in the pathogenesis of IP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The extended endonasal approach has been utilized in the resection of anterior skull base lesions in the pediatric population. There are unique challenges to these patients in the post-operative setting, including patient compliance with medical therapy and post-operative debridements, and a smaller nasal airway that may increase propensity toward scarring. Our objective for this study is to evaluate the incidence of post-operative radiographic inflammation in this patient population using the Lund-Mackay (LM) score. METHODS A single-center, retrospective review of pediatric patients undergoing endoscopic approach to the skull base between 2009 and 2021 was performed. Demographic and clinicopathologic data and pre- and post-operative imaging were analyzed. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey multiple pairwise comparisons statistical tests were used to compare mean LM scores between groups. RESULTS Seventy-two patients (52 males, 20 females) were identified with a median follow-up of 27 months. All patients underwent an extended endonasal approach for resection of skull base lesions. The mean LM scores were compared between pre-operative MRI, first post-operative MRI > 30 days after surgery, and most recent post-operative MRI. One-way ANOVA was performed with significant differences noted between the groups (p < 0.001). Tukey multiple pairwise comparisons test was then performed and noted significant differences between the pre-operative and first post-operative LM (p < 0.0001) and the first post-operative and most recent LM (p < 0.0001). There was no significant difference noted between the pre-operative LM score and most recent LM score (p = 0.14). CONCLUSION Despite concerns regarding possible subsequent development of chronic rhinosinusitis following endoscopic skull base surgery in pediatric patients, the current study suggests that transient radiographic evidence of sinus inflammation can be seen up to six months postoperatively, which appears to resolve by approximately two years after surgery.

Abstract
Simple Summary Inverted papillomas are benign sinonasal tumors that can recur or become cancerous. The mainstay of treatment is surgical resection. We summarize the biology of inverted papillomas and review surgical outcomes in an effort to define the current treatment strategy. Abstract Inverted papillomas (IP) are the most common sinonasal tumor with a tendency for recurrence, potential attachment to the orbit and skull base, and risk of malignant degeneration into squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). While the overall rate of recurrence has decreased with the widespread adoption of high-definition endoscopic optics and advanced surgical tools, there remain challenges in managing tumors that are multiply recurrent or involve vital neurovascular structures. Here, we review the state-of-the-art diagnostic tools for IP and IP-degenerated SCC, contemporary surgical management, and propose a surveillance protocol.

Abstract
Long-term survival and recurrence patterns of squamous cell carcinoma arising from inverted papilloma (IP-SCC) have not been thoroughly investigated. Four electronic databases were searched and primary studies describing overall survival (OS), recurrence, and mean time to recurrence of patients with IP-SCC were included for review. Our search yielded 662 studies. The 28 studies selected for inclusion identified 663 patients with IP-SCC. In 596 patients with reported T classification, 439 (73.7%) were T3/T4 on presentation. Of the 650 participants with recurrence data (local, regional, and distant), 155 (23.8%) experienced a recurrence, with an aggregate mean time-to-recurrence of 24.3 months. In 565 patients with 5-year OS rates, the aggregate 5-year OS was 62%. Based on the literature to date, IP-SCC is associated with a 5-year OS rate of 62%. 23.8% of patients experienced recurrence at a mean time of 24.3 months, suggesting the need for long-term surveillance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Distinguishing benign inverted papilloma (IP) tumors from those that have undergone malignant transformation to squamous cell carcinoma (IP-SCC) is important but challenging to do preoperatively. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can help differentiate these 2 entities, but no established method exists that can automatically synthesize all potentially relevant MRI image features to distinguish IP and IP-SCC. We explored a deep learning approach, using 3-dimensional convolutional neural networks (CNNs), to address this challenge. METHODS Retrospective chart reviews were performed at 2 institutions to create a data set of preoperative MRIs with corresponding surgical pathology reports. The MRI data set included all available MRI sequences in the axial plane, which were used to train, validate, and test 3 CNN models. Saliency maps were generated to visualize areas of MRIs with greatest influence on predictions. RESULTS A total of 90 patients with IP (n = 64) or IP-SCC (n = 26) tumors were identified, with a total of 446 images of distinct MRI sequences for IP (n = 329) or IP-SCC (n = 117). The best CNN model, All-Net, demonstrated a sensitivity of 66.7%, specificity of 81.5%, overall accuracy of 77.9%, and receiver-operating characteristic area under the curve of 0.80 (95% confidence interval, 0.682-0.898) for test classification performance. The other 2 models, Small-All-Net and Elastic-All-Net, showed similar performance levels. CONCLUSION A deep learning approach with 3-dimensional CNNs can distinguish IP and IP-SCC with moderate test classification performance. Although CNNs demonstrate promise to enhance the prediction of IP-SCC using MRIs, more data are needed before they can reach the predictive value already established by human MRI evaluation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inverted papilloma (IP) is a sinonasal tumor with a well-known potential for malignant transformation. The purpose of this study was to identify the genes and pathways associated with IP, with progression to carcinoma-in-situ and invasive carcinoma. METHODS To determine genes and molecular pathways that may indicate progression and correlate with histologic changes, we analyzed six IP without dysplasia, five IP with carcinoma-in-situ, and 13 squamous cell carcinoma ex-IP by targeted sequencing. The HTG EdgeSeq Oncology Biomarker Panel coupled with next-generation sequencing was used to evaluate 2560 transcripts associated with solid tumors. RESULTS Progressive upregulation of 11 genes were observed (CALD1, COL1A1, COL3A1, COL4A2, COL5A2, FN1, ITGA5, LGALS1, MMP11, SERPINH1, SPARC) in the order of invasive carcinoma > carcinoma-in-situ > IP without dysplasia. When compared with IP without dysplasia, more genes are differentially expressed in invasive carcinoma than carcinoma-in-situ samples (341 downregulated/333 upregulated vs. 195 downregulated/156 upregulated). Gene set enrichment analysis determined three gene sets in common between the cohorts (epithelial mesenchymal transition, extracellular matrix organization, and coagulation). CONCLUSIONS Progressive upregulation of genes specific to IP malignant degeneration has significant clinical implications. This panel of 11 genes will improve concordance of histologic classification, which can directly impact treatment and patient outcomes. Additionally, future studies on larger tumor sets may observe upregulation in the gene panel that preceded histologic changes, which may be useful for further risk stratification.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
BNO 1016 is an ethanolic extract of a mixture of five herbs that has been sold in different formulations for decades in the European market and more recently, in the United States market as an over-the-counter treatment for rhinosinusitis. Previous studies indicated activation of chloride secretion and increase in ciliary beat frequency by BNO 1016 but the functional consequences on mucociliary transport velocity and airway surface liquid homeostasis are unknown. This study intends to examine the effects of BNO 1016 on these properties in vitro.
Results
Human sinonasal epithelial cells were grown at an air-liquid interface, with addition of BNO 1016 basolaterally in each experiment. Polystyrene fluorescent microspheres were added to the apical surface of the culture, and distance traveled across the surface of the culture over a fixed time period was measured using live imaging. BNO 1016 concentrations of 50 μg/ml and 500 μg/ml were tested. Basolateral application of compound resulted in a non-dose-dependent increase in culture surface liquid height compared to controls at 30 min, and this effect persisted through the one-hour duration of the experiment (p < 0.01). Basolateral application of BNO 1016 also resulted in a non-dose-dependent increase in microsphere transport velocity at 45 and 60 min following compound application (p < 0.01).
Conclusions
Basolateral application of BNO 1016 at a concentration mimicking post-ingestion serum levels appears to elicit increases in cell culture surface liquid height and mucociliary clearance, as assessed by microsphere transport velocity. These properties can potentially be leveraged for therapeutic efficacy in diseases affecting mucus production and mucociliary transport.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ketotifen is a second-generation noncompetitive H1-antihistamine and mast-cell stabilizer. It is commonly used to treat or prevent allergic conjunctivitis, asthma, chronic urticaria, anaphylaxis, mast-cell, and other allergic-type disorders. However, it has never been studied in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), an aggressive phenotype of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, where the mast cell plays a prominent role its pathogenesis. METHODS Human sinonasal epithelial cells were grown at an air-liquid interface (ALI). Ketotifen powder was dissolved in saline to make 4 test solutions at 1.04, 2.08, 10.4, and 20.8 µg/mL. Control (saline) or ketotifen solution was added apically to ALI cultures from tissue of 5 unique patients, and ciliary beat frequency (CBF) changes were recorded. Lactate dehydrogenase was measured at 24 and 48 hours to estimate long-term cellular toxicity. RESULTS Apical application of ketotifen at all concentrations was neither ciliotoxic nor ciliostimulatory, with no change in CBF over a period of 15 minutes after application. Cellular toxicity for all concentrations at 24 and 48 hours after application was <3% and <7%, respectively, that of lysed cultures. CONCLUSION Topical application of ketotifen to an in vitro model of sinonasal epithelium is safe, as evaluated by CBF and lactate dehydrogenase. Ketotifen is neither ciliotoxic nor ciliostimulatory, and no long-term cellular toxicity was observed. Ketotifen may have promise as a topical nasal rinse in the treatment of AERD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare sinonasal malignancy arising from olfactory neuroepithelium. Recurrence typically occurs locoregionally at the primary site or in the form of cervical metastasis. Delayed local recurrence away from the initial primary site is exceedingly rare. METHODS Retrospective review of 4 patients with histologically confirmed extraprimary local recurrence of ENB was performed with review of the literature. RESULTS All cases initially presented with ENB isolated to the cribriform plate(s) treated with primary surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. The first patient had ENB recurrence 8 years posttreatment involving the right orbit. She later developed metastases to the spine, neck, and mandible requiring composite resection and 4 courses of radiotherapy. The second patient had ENB recurrence of the dorsal septum 9 years posttreatment with cervical metastases requiring septectomy, bilateral neck dissection, and radiotherapy. The third patient had ENB recurrence 7 years posttreatment in the posterior nasopharynx requiring endonasal nasopharyngectomy. Finally, the fourth patient had ENB recurrence 12 years posttreatment in the sphenopalatine foramen, which was endoscopically resected. At the time of this review, all 4 patients were disease free at 32, 21, 4, and 24 months posttreatment follow-ups, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This case series describes the rare phenomenon of delayed extraprimary local recurrence of histologically confirmed ENB. Treatment of extraprimary recurrences, analogous to other forms of ENB, should include primary surgical resection with adjuvant radiotherapy for generally favorable outcomes. Long-term close follow-up based on symptoms, endoscopy, and imaging is essential because of the risk of delayed recurrence.

Abstract
Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC) is an aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis, and pathologically, it is a diagnosis of exclusion. Rendering this diagnosis can be challenging in practice because of the large number of diverse entities in the differential diagnosis. We encountered an index case of a sinonasal carcinoma otherwise diagnosable as SNUC which, on further investigation, demonstrated strong and diffuse P16 expression, as well as diffuse expression of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) RNA by in situ hybridization (ISH). We therefore hypothesized that a subset of cases previously diagnosed as SNUC may in fact harbor transcriptionally active hrHPV. We further investigated a cohort of 25 SNUC cases in our pathology archives and performed ISH for hrHPV RNA on cases that demonstrated >70% nuclear and cytoplasmic P16 expression, criteria which, in other anatomic sites, correlates strongly with the presence of hrHPV. Twelve of 25 SNUC cases were P16 positive, and of these, 5 were positive for hrHPV by ISH. Thus, 20% of all SNUC cases in this cohort harbored transcriptionally active hrHPV. Herein, we report a clinical and pathologic analysis of these cases, including differential diagnostic considerations and comparison of their clinical behavior with SNUC cases that are negative for hrHPV by ISH.

Abstract
Airway submucosal gland serous cells are sites of expression of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and are important for fluid secretion in conducting airways. To elucidate how neuropeptides regulate serous cells, we tested if human nasal turbinate serous cells secrete bicarbonate (HCO3 -), important for mucus polymerisation and antimicrobial peptide function, during stimulation with cAMP-elevating vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and if this requires CFTR. Serous cells stimulated with VIP exhibited a ∼15-20% cAMP-dependent decrease in cell volume and a ∼0.15 unit decrease in intracellular pH (pHi), reflecting activation of Cl- and HCO3 - secretion, respectively. HCO3 - secretion was directly dependent on CFTR and was absent in cells from CF patients. In contrast, neuropeptide Y (NPY) reduced VIP-evoked cAMP increases, CFTR activation, and Cl-/HCO3 - secretion. Culture of primary serous cells in a model that maintained a serous phenotype confirmed the activating and inhibiting effects of VIP and NPY, respectively, on fluid and HCO3 - secretion. Moreover, VIP enhanced antimicrobial peptide secretion and antimicrobial efficacy of secretions while NPY reduced antimicrobial efficacy. In contrast, NPY enhanced cytokine release while VIP reduced cytokine release through a mechanism requiring CFTR. As levels of VIP and NPY are up-regulated in diseases like allergy, asthma, and chronic rhinosinusitis, the balance of these two peptides in the airway may control mucus rheology and inflammatory responses in serous cells. Furthermore, the loss of CFTR conductance in serous cells may contribute to CF pathophysiology by increasing serous cells inflammatory responses in addition to directly impairing Cl- and HCO3 - secretion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients undergoing endoscopic resection of neoplasms with both sinonasal and skull base involvement can develop chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) after treatment and may occasionally benefit from additional endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). We investigate risk factors and outcomes associated with revision ESS (rESS) after endoscopic skull-base surgery (SBS) for neoplasms with combined sinonasal and skull base involvement. METHODS A retrospective review of patients with neoplasms with both sinonasal and skull base involvement who underwent endoscopic resection at a single tertiary care academic institution from 2004 through 2017 was performed. Eighty-three patients were included. Main outcome measures included incidence and timing of revision surgery, Lund-Mackay (LM) scores, and 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) scores. RESULTS rESS was performed in 21 (25%) cases, 15 (18%) of which were due to CRS. Time between initial resection and rESS was an average of 42 months (range, 6 to 142 months). Pre-SBS and post-SBS LM scores were not significantly different (5.0 vs 4.7, p = 0.640), although pre-SBS and post-SBS SNOT-22 scores showed significant improvement (32.6 vs 24.5, p = 0.030). Malignant pathology correlated with need for rESS (odds ratio [OR] 5.07, p = 0.04), as well as treatment including chemotherapy (OR 5.10, p = 0.003) and radiation (OR 4.15, p = 0.013). CONCLUSION A significant proportion of patients develop clinically significant sinusitis after endoscopic SBS for neoplasms with combined sinonasal and skull base involvement and may benefit from rESS. Intervention occurred, on average, 3.5 years after initial tumor resection. Malignant pathology, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy correlate with need for rESS.

Abstract
Objective Surgical resection is widely accepted as a critical component for definitive treatment of sinonasal mucosal melanoma. Systemic immunotherapy, including multiple newer agents, has been used to treat metastatic or unresectable disease. In this study, we examine its efficacy in locoregional control when used in conjunction with surgical resection for primary mucosal lesions. Design Present study is a retrospective review of all patients at a tertiary academic medical center with primary sinonasal mucosal melanoma and distant metastatic disease. Results A total of four patients were identified. In all cases, patients were treated with a combination of surgical resection of the primary tumor and systemic immunotherapy. Three patients were initially treated with surgery at the primary site followed by immunotherapy for distant metastases. Response to immunotherapy at the sites of primary and metastatic disease was seen in two patients. All four patients developed progression or recurrence at the primary site following initiation of immunotherapy for which they underwent surgical resection. One patient remains in follow-up without evidence of disease 20 months after initial treatment; three succumbed to the disease at 135, 37, and 16 months after initial treatment. Conclusion Surgical resection for local control plays a critically important role in the treatment of sinonasal mucosal melanoma regardless of the presence of metastases and whether immunotherapy will be given. This case series suggests that, though immunotherapy may demonstrate efficacy in managing distant disease, surgery should remain the first-line treatment for the primary site.

Abstract
Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) represents the most common HPV-related malignancy in the United States with increasing incidence. There is heterogeneity between the behavior and response to treatment of HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma that may be linked to the tumor virome. In this prospective study, a pan-pathogen microarray (PathoChip) was used to determine the virome of early stage, p16-positive OPSCC and neck metastasis treated with transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and neck dissection. The virome findings of primary tumors and neck lymph nodes were correlated with clinical data to determine if specific organisms were associated with clinical outcomes. A total of 114 patients were enrolled in the study. Double-stranded DNA viruses, specifically Papillomaviridae, showed the highest hybridization signal (viral copies) across all viral families in the primary and positive lymph node samples. High hybridization signals were also detected for signatures of Baculoviridae, Reoviridae, Siphoviridae, Myoviridae, and Polydnaviridae in most of the cancer specimens, including the lymph nodes without cancer present. Across all HPV signatures, HPV16 and 18 had the highest average hybridization signal index and prevalence. To our knowledge, this is the first study that has identified the viral signatures of OPSCC tumors. This will serve as a foundation for future research investigating the role of the virome in OPSCC. Further investigation into the OPSCC microbiome and its variations may allow for improved appreciation of the impact of microbial dysbiosis on risk stratification, oncologic outcomes, and treatment response which has been shown in other cancer sites.

Abstract
Objective Sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) is a typically benign sinonasal tumor with a tendency to recur and the potential for malignant transformation. Varying degrees of dysplasia may be present, of which carcinoma in situ (CIS) is most advanced. We hereby describe the biological and clinical behavior of IP with CIS (IPwCIS). Study Design Retrospective cohort. Setting Tertiary academic referral center. Subjects and Methods Patients who underwent surgical resection for IP between 2002 and 2017. Pertinent clinical data were obtained, and all IPwCIS cases were histologically confirmed. Results In total, 37 of 215 cases (17.2%) were identified with IPwCIS. Mean age was 57 years and 86.5% of patients were male. Median follow-up was 82 months, and the recurrence rate was 27%. The maxillary sinus was the most common primary site (37.8%) and 14 tumors (37.8%) demonstrated multifocal attachment, which was associated with recurrence (odds ratio [OR], 9.7; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.4-112.8; P = .028). IPwCIS was also associated with multiple recurrences (OR, 2.71; 95% CI, 1.246-5.814; P = .021). Most patients were treated with surgery alone (89.1%) and 4 patients received adjuvant radiotherapy (8.1%). Only 1 patient (2.7%) demonstrated malignant transformation after definitive surgery. Conclusions IPwCIS represents the most severe degree of dysplasia prior to malignant transformation and is associated with higher recurrence rate and multifocal involvement but low rate of conversion to invasive carcinoma. The need for adjuvant therapy remains controversial, and further research into the etiology of the disease is warranted.

Abstract
Objectives A persistent craniopharyngeal canal (CPC) is a rare embryologic remnant that presents as a well-corticated defect of the midline sphenoid body extending from the sellar floor to the nasopharynx. Our case series aims to describe three unique presentations of this congenital anomaly and their subsequent management. Design Retrospective review. Setting Tertiary academic medical center. Participants Patients who underwent endoscopic transnasal surgical repair of a CPC lesion. Main Outcome Measures Resolution of symptoms and surgical outcomes. Results A total of three patients were identified. The clinical presentation varied, however, all cases prompted further imaging which demonstrated a persistent CPC and associated pathologic lesion. The presentation of a persistent CPC with nasal obstruction and subsequent iatrogenic cerebrospinal fluid leak as in Case 1 demonstrates the importance of imaging in this work-up. Cases 2 and 3 in the series were representative of the larger subset of patients in the literature who present with the defect incidentally but still warrant surgical management. Nonetheless, a standard approach to diagnosis with preoperative imaging and subsequent transnasal endoscopic repair of the skull base defect was undertaken. Conclusion The persistent CPC is a rare congenital anomaly associated with diverse pathology and careful review of preoperative radiology is critical to the management. When warranted, subsequent surgical repair and reconstruction is associated with excellent postoperative outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inverted papilloma (IP) is a benign sinonasal tumor with a well-known propensity to recur, especially at its bony attachment site. Anecdotal evidence suggests lower rate of recurrence in primary resection. We also aimed to evaluate the effect of multifocal vs single focus of attachment in disease control. METHODS This work is a retrospective review of 535 IP resections performed during the period from 2006 to 2016 at a tertiary-care center. Demographic data, tumor location and attachment sites, and follow-up duration data were obtained. RESULTS Two hundred ten patients were eligible for analysis. The mean age was 57 years, with an average postoperative surveillance of 36.4 months. Patients who had a previous procedure at an outside institution have a recurrence rate of 22.3%, compared with 12.4% for patients who had primary surgery at our institution. The most common site of attachment was maxillary sinus (47.6%), followed by ethmoid sinus (39%). Individual tumor review showed 50% of the patients to have multifocal attachment disease, of which there is a higher prevalence in secondary cases when compared with primary cases (53.7% vs 44.9%). Multiple tumor attachment sites had a significant effect on recurrence (odds ratio, 3.5; 95% confidence interval, 1.6-7.6; p = 0.002). CONCLUSION Primary resection and single-focus attachment of inverted papilloma are associated with lower recurrence rates at 3-year follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Solitary chemosensory cells (SCCs) are rare epithelial cells enriched in nasal polyps and are the primary source of interleukin-25 (IL-25), an innate cytokine eliciting T-helper 2 (Th2) immune response. Although it is proposed that SCCs are stimulated by antigens released by upper airway pathogens, the exogenous triggers of human SCCs remain elusive. We studied patients with noninvasive fungal rhinosinusitis to determine whether extracts of Aspergillus fumigatus and Alternaria alternata stimulate SCC proliferation as an early event in type 2 inflammation. METHODS Multicolor flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, and enzyme-linked immunoassay were used to interrogate mucosa from patients with mycetomas and allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) for SCCs and IL-25. Primary sinonasal epithelial cells from AFRS patients and noninflamed inferior turbinates were stimulated with fungal extracts for 72 hours, and SCC population frequency as well as mitotic activity were quantified using flow cytometry. RESULTS SCCs producing IL-25 are enriched in inflamed mucosa compared with intrapatient noninflamed control tissue (38.6% vs 6.5%, p = 0.029). In cultured sinonasal epithelial cells from AFRS nasal polyps, Aspergillus fumigatus and Alternaria alternata stimulated higher SCC frequency compared with controls (27.4% vs 10.6%, p = 0.002; 18.1% vs 10.6%, p = 0.046), which led to increased IL-25 secretion in culture media (75.5 vs 3.3 pg/mL, p < 0.001; 32.3 vs 3.3 pg/mL, p = 0.007). Ki-67 expression was higher in SCCs grown in fungal stimulation conditions compared with controls. CONCLUSION Although fungal antigens are known to potentiate immune response through innate cytokines, including IL-25, the early expansion of SCCs in the presence of fungus has not been described. This early event in the pathogenesis of noninvasive fungal rhinosinusitis may represent a target for intervention.

Abstract
Objectives Pituitary carcinoma is a rare entity with fewer than 200 total cases reported in the English literature. Analysis of the population-level data from the National Cancer Database (NCDB) affords the opportunity to study this poorly understood tumor type. Methods The NCDB was queried for site, histology, and metastasis codes corresponding to pituitary carcinoma. Statistical analyses were performed to determine factors associated with overall survival (OS). Results A total of 92 patients with pituitary carcinoma met inclusion criteria. The 1 and 5 years of OS for all patients was 93.3% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 88.2-98.6%) and 80.0% (95% CI: 71.6-89.4%), respectively. Patients with invasive primary tumor behavior had 1 and 5 years of OS of 69.2% (95% CI: 48.2-99.5%) and 52.7% (95% CI: 31.2-89.2%), respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that compared with benign primary behavior, invasive behavior had increased all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 1,296, 95% CI: 15.1- > 2,000). Surgery without adjuvant radiation or chemotherapy was the most common therapy (48.9%), followed by no treatment (40.2%). Compared with surgery alone, no treatment had worse OS (HR, 11.83, 95% CI: 1.41-99.56). Increasing age and female sex were both associated with increased mortality. Conclusions The most common treatment for pituitary carcinoma is surgery alone followed by no surgery. Surgery alone has significantly better OS compared with no treatment. The efficacy of radiation, chemotherapy, and neurohormonal treatments needs to be examined with prospective studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a proposed risk factor for meningitis and other intracranial complications following the endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach (TSA). Some have recommended staging TSA following surgery for CRS; however, delaying TSA has important ramifications. The objective of this study is to determine whether asymptomatic sinonasal inflammation (RSNI) on preoperative computed tomography scans, without clinical CRS, is associated with postoperative complications following TSA. METHODS All consecutive TSA cases performed at a single tertiary care institution from January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2017, were reviewed for patient demographics, prior surgery, presence of RSNI on preoperative computed tomography scan based on Lund-Mackay (LM) score, intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, and postoperative complications (postoperative CSF leak, bleeding, infection). The association between preoperative RSNI and postoperative complications was analyzed via multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS One hundred seventy-one cases of TSA were included with mean patient age of 52.6 years, 42.7% males, 18.1% revision cases, and mean LM score of 1.9 ± 2.7. Complications were identified in 9.9% of patients at the following rates: 5.3% postoperative CSF leak, 2.9% bleeding, and 1.8% infection (all sinusitis, no episodes of meningitis). Neither total LM score nor LM score > 5 (representative of clinically significant radiographic CRS) were predictors of any postoperative complication (both P > 0.05). Age, sex, revision status, intraoperative CSF leak, and total LM score were not independent predictors of any postoperative complication on multivariate analysis (all P > 0.05). CONCLUSION In asymptomatic patients, radiographic evidence of sinonasal inflammation is not associated with increased risk of complications following TSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Broncho-Vaxom® (OM-85 BV) is an extract of infectious respiratory bacteria that is used as an immunostimulant outside of the United States for the prevention and treatment of bronchitis and rhinosinusitis. Prior studies have shown that use of OM-85 BV is associated with reduction in frequency of respiratory infection and decreased duration of antibiotic usage. However, the effects of OM-85 BV on respiratory mucosal innate immunity are unknown. METHODS Human sinonasal epithelial cells were grown at an air-liquid interface (ALI). Ciliary beat frequency (CBF) and nitric oxide (NO) production in response to stimulation with OM-85 BV was measured in vitro. Pharmacologic inhibitors of bitter taste receptor (T2R) signaling were used to determine if this pathway was taste-receptor-mediated. RESULTS Apical application of OM-85 BV resulted in an NO-mediated increase in CBF (p < 0.05) and increased NO production (p < 0.0001) when compared to saline-stimulated control cultures. ALI pretreatment with taste receptor pathway inhibitors blocked OM-85 BV-induced increases in NO. CONCLUSION OM-85 BV has ciliostimulatory and immunogenic properties that may be partially responsible for its observed efficacy as a respiratory therapeutic. These responses were NO-dependent and consistent with T2R activation. Further work is necessary to elucidate specific component-receptor signaling relationships.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Currently, due to the rarity of pathology, there are limited data surrounding outcomes of pediatric skull base surgery. Traditionally, surgeons have proceeded with caution when electing endonasal endoscopic transsellar/transplanum approaches to the skull base in pediatric patients due to poor sphenoid pneumatization. In this study, we review outcomes of endoscopic pediatric skull base surgery based on sphenoid pneumatization patterns. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review. METHODS A review of all cases of pediatric (age < 18 years) craniopharyngioma managed via an endoscopic endonasal approach at a tertiary academic medical center. RESULTS A total of 27 patients were included in the analysis. The median age was 8 years. Nineteen (70%) patients were male. Presellar, sellar/postsellar, and conchal sphenoid pneumatizations were found in 6, 11, and 10 patients, respectively. There was no significant association between sphenoid pneumatization pattern and extent of resection (gross vs. subtotal, P = .414), postoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak (P = .450), intraoperative estimated blood loss (P = .098), total operative time (P = .540), and length of stay (P = .336). On multivariate analysis, after accounting for age, sex, preoperative cranial nerve involvement, and cavernous sinus invasion, there remained no significant association between sphenoid pneumatization pattern and extent of resection (P = .999) and postoperative CSF leak (P = .959). CONCLUSIONS Sphenoid pneumatization pattern does not appear to affect outcomes in endoscopic skull base surgery in the pediatric population. Importantly, lack of sphenoid pneumatization does not impede gross total resection or increase complications. Thorough knowledge of the anatomy during the endoscopic approach is critical to optimize outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4 Laryngoscope, 129:832-836, 2019.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Inverted papillomas (IPs) are benign tumors of the sinonasal tract with a malignant transformation potential. Predicting the transformation propensity of IPs and corresponding risk factors has long been a challenge. In this study, we aimed to use radiographic findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) to help differentiate IP from IP-transformed squamous cell carcinomas (IP-SCC). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed at two institutions comparing IP (n = 76) and IP-SCC (n = 66) tumors, evaluating preoperative radiographic imaging with corresponding surgical pathology reports. The presence of a convoluted cerebriform pattern (CCP) using postcontrast T1-weighted and T2-weighted MRI was evaluated. Using MRI diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), we calculated the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of each tumor. We also determined the tumor origin, attachment sites, and presence of bony erosion using CT imaging. RESULTS Benign IPs had a higher prevalence of CCP on MRI compared to IP-transformed SCC (P = .0001. The mean value ADC of malignant IP-SCC (ADCb0,1000 = 1.12 × 10-3 mm2 /s) was significantly lower than that of benign IPs (ADCb0,1000 = 1.49 × 10-3 mm2 /s, P = .002). IP-SCC tumors were more likely to be have orbital wall attachment (P = .002) and bony erosion (P < .0001) compared to IPs. CONCLUSIONS Evaluation of CCP and DWI with ADC values on MRI are promising qualitative and quantitative methods to help differentiate benign IP tumors from their transformed malignant counterparts. Malignant IP-SCCs are associated with a loss of CCP and lower ADC values. Findings of orbital wall involvement and bony erosion on CT may also help determine presence of malignancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is commonly characterized by type-2 inflammation. It is established that group-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are a subset of immune cells important in orchestrating mucosal type-2 response. IL-25 is an epithelial-derived cytokine that is a critical activator of ILC2s. Recent evidence demonstrates that specialized taster epithelial cells, such as solitary chemosensory cells (SCCs), may be producers of IL-25. To elucidate the relationship between SCCs and ILC2s in CRSwNP, we sought to quantify ILC2s and SCCs to determine if these cell types are enriched in nasal polyps compared to healthy sinonasal mucosa. METHODS We quantified SCCs and ILC2s using multicolor flow cytometry in nasal polyps and non-inflamed turbinate mucosa from seven patients and investigated the role of IL-13 and dexamethasone on SCC frequency using tissue explants of nasal polyps and turbinate mucosa. RESULTS SCCs were found to be the primary source of IL-25. Nasal polyps demonstrated higher populations of SCCs (33.0% vs 5.6%, p < 0.001) and ILC2s (2.40% vs 0.19%, p = 0.008) compared to patient-matched nonpolypoid turbinates. In cultured polyp explants, exogenous IL-13 increased the proportion of epithelial SCCs (40.2% IL-13 condition vs 28.9% untreated, p = 0.012), and this effect was reversed by addition of dexamethasone (40.2% vs 8.9%, p < 0.0005). CONCLUSION These data support SCC and ILC2 expansion as well as increased IL-25 production in nasal polyps and may represent early events in the pathogenesis of CRSwNP. IL-13 stimulates proliferation of SCC in a feed-forward loop, a process that is steroid-sensitive.

Abstract
A wide variety of tumors present in the sinonasal and ventral skull base. Patients often have nonspecific symptoms initially and present with advanced tumors, affecting the orbit and other adjacent structures. Evaluation of these malignancies with modern imaging techniques can define tumor invasion, but biopsy is often required to establish a diagnosis because most have a nonspecific appearance. A thorough understanding of the anatomy is the key to treatment planning, and a multidisciplinary approach determines the optimal strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tracheotomy patients are a small portion of hospitalizations, but account for disproportionately high risk and costs. There are many complex decisions that go into the care of these patients, and practice variation is expected to be compounded in a health system. This study sought to characterize the medical economic impact of tracheotomy patients on the hospital system. METHODS A retrospective review of the health system's hospital billing software was performed for 2013, and pertinent outcomes measures were tabulated. RESULTS There were 829 tracheotomies performed in the health system of seven hospitals, with total costs of $128,883,865. Average length of stay was 36.74 days for principal procedures, and 43.36 days for tracheotomy as secondary procedures. Mortality was ∼ 18% overall, and re-admissions were 10.93% for primary, and 14.36% for secondary procedures. A fairly wide variation in each category among the different hospitals was observed. CONCLUSIONS There are potentially many factors that impact variations of care and outcomes in patients with tracheotomy. Due to their large economic impact and risks for morbidity and mortality, a formalized care pathway is warranted. Goals of the pathway should include understanding medical decisions surrounding these complex patients, monitoring pertinent outcomes, reducing practice variation, and improving the efficiency of compassionate care.

Abstract
The estimated annual incidence of oral cavity and pharyngeal cancer is 39,000 in the United States and 260,000 cases worldwide. Despite significant advances in surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the 5-year survival rate for locally advanced head and neck tumors remains at 50 %. With further intensification of existing treatment limited by the already significant morbidity of multi-modality treatment, there is a clear need for novel therapeutic strategies [1]. Accumulating evidence suggests that the tumor microenvironment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is highly immunosuppressive, mediated by soluble and cell-associated inhibitory mediators and recruitment of host immunosuppressive cells. Thus, understanding and reversing the specific mechanisms underlying tumor-mediated immunosuppression in HNSCC is an important approach to generating an effective antitumor immune response, either as a component of immune-based therapy or as a complement to conventional treatment approaches. This article outlines significant immune-suppressive mechanisms in the HNSCC tumor microenvironment and potential approaches to enhancing the antitumor immune response.

Abstract
Radiation with or without chemotherapy is considered the mainstay of treatment for the majority of patients with oropharyngeal cancer. The goal of this study was to analyze competing causes of mortality in patients with oropharyngeal cancer with long-term follow-up. We queried the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database and identified 3728 patients with oropharyngeal cancer treated between 1988 and 2001 with definitive radiotherapy. We analyzed predictors of overall survival and risks of mortality from index oropharyngeal cancer, second primary cancer, cardiovascular disease and other causes using a cumulative incidence analysis and Cox multivariate analysis. With a median follow-up of 6.8 years, the 5- and 10-year overall survival was 37 and 22%, respectively. At 5 years, the risk of mortality from primary oropharyngeal cancer was 35%. Between years 3 and 10, 69% of mortalities were attributed to causes other than the index cancer. Despite advances in the non-surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer, patients remain at significant risk of cancer- and non-cancer-related mortality.

Abstract
Background Preclinical data suggest that sunitinib enhances the efficacy of radiotherapy. We tested the combination of sunitinib and hypofractionated image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) in a cohort of patients with historically incurable distant metastases. Methods Twenty five patients with oligometastases, defined as 1–5 sites of active disease on whole body imaging, were enrolled in a phase II trial from 2/08 to 9/10. The most common tumor types treated were head and neck, liver, lung, kidney and prostate cancers. Patients were treated with the recommended phase II dose of 37.5 mg daily sunitinib (days 1–28) and IGRT 50 Gy (days 8–12 and 15–19). Maintenance sunitinib was used in 33% of patients. Median follow up was 17.5 months (range, 0.7 to 37.4 months). Results The 18-month local control, distant control, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 75%, 52%, 56% and 71%, respectively. At last follow-up, 11 (44%) patients were alive without evidence of disease, 7 (28%) were alive with distant metastases, 3 (12%) were dead from distant metastases, 3 (12%) were dead from comorbid illness, and 1 (4%) was dead from treatment-related toxicities. The incidence of acute grade ≥ 3 toxicities was 28%, most commonly myelosuppression, bleeding and abnormal liver function tests. Conclusions Concurrent sunitinib and IGRT achieves major clinical responses in a subset of patients with oligometastases. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00463060

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the impact of early tracheotomy in nontrauma patients on duration of mechanical ventilation (MV), intensive care unit (ICU) stay, and overall hospital stay. DESIGN Case series with chart review. SETTING Tertiary care medical center. METHODS A retrospective study was performed for patients undergoing tracheotomy from 2005 to 2010. Demographics; survival; duration of endotracheal intubation, MV, ICU, and overall hospital stay; and incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) were assessed. Tracheotomy was considered early if it was performed by day 7 of MV and late thereafter. Nonparametric statistics were used to compare results from each group. RESULTS Of the 592 patients included in the analysis, 128 received tracheotomy early and 464 late. Differences between age, sex, and overall survival were not statistically significant. Duration of MV was 45% less (mean ± standard error: 21.47 ± 1.86 days vs 39.33 ± 1.33 days; P < .001), total ICU stay was shortened by 33% (17.52 ± 1.38 days vs 26.27 ± 0.73 days; P < .001), and length of overall hospital course was reduced by 34% (35.85 ± 2.57 days vs 54.28 ± 1.60 days; P < .001) in the early tracheotomy group. Three patients (2.3%) from the early tracheotomy group developed VAP as compared with 15 (3.2%) from the late group. Duration from tracheotomy to ICU transfer and 30% overall mortality did not differ significantly between groups. CONCLUSION Early tracheotomy in ICU patients is associated with earlier ICU discharge, shorter duration of mechanical ventilation, and decreased length of overall hospital stay without affecting mortality.

Abstract
A phase II trial was conducted to evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of incorporating cetuximab and simultaneous integrated boost intensity-modulated radiation therapy (SIB-IMRT) into a well-described 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and hydroxyurea (HU)-based chemoradiation regimen. Patients with stage IVa-IVb or high-risk stage III squamous cell carcinomas were enrolled. Prior organ-conserving surgery or induction chemotherapy was allowed. IMRT was administered in 1.5 Gy fractions twice daily on days 1-5 of weeks 1, 3, 5, 7±9 for a total dose of 60-73.5 Gy. Concurrent systemic therapy consisted of 5-FU (600 mg/m2), HU (500 mg BID) and cetuximab (250 mg/m2). p16INK4A expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry. From January 2007 to January 2010, 65 patients (61 with stage IV disease; 31 with oropharyngeal primaries) were enrolled. At a median follow-up of 28 months, 2-year locoregional control, distant control, progression-free survival, event-free survival and overall survival were 79, 83, 72, 63 and 80%, respectively. In 48 patients with available pre-treatment tissue, p16 overexpression was associated with significantly increased distant control (p=0.03), progression-free survival (p=0.02), event-free survival (p=0.007) and overall survival (p=0.03). The most common grade 3-4 toxicities were mucositis (46%), leukopenia (18%), anemia (18%) and dermatitis (17%). Concurrent 5-FU, HU, cetuximab and SIB-IMRT is a highly active regimen, particularly in patients with p16-positive disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Concurrent inhibition of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an active and well tolerated regimen in recurrent head and neck cancer (HNC). In the current phase 1 trial, the authors sought to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and efficacy of concurrent erlotinib and celecoxib as a radiosensitizing regimen. METHODS Fourteen patients with previously irradiated HNC with no distant metastases who required reirradiation were eligible. Treatment consisted of daily erlotinib 150 mg and twice daily celecoxib (escalated from 200 mg to 600 mg using a 3 + 3 design with an expanded cohort at the MTD) starting on Day 1 and was continued during radiation. Daily radiation was started on Day 15, and maintenance erlotinib was recommended. RESULTS The recommended phase 2 dose of celecoxib was 400 mg. Three dose-limiting toxicities included late in-field orocutaneous fistula (Dose Level 2), osteonecrosis (Dose Level 3), and trismus (Dose Level 3). Acute grade ≥ 3 toxicities were uncommon and included mucositis (21%) and dermatitis (14%). At a median follow-up of 11 months, the 1-year locoregional control, progression-free survival, and overall survival rates were 60%, 37%, and 55%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Concurrent erlotinib, celecoxib, and reirradiation was a feasible and clinically active regimen in a population of patients with recurrent HNC who had a poor prognosis.
