Abstract
Background: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the temporal bone (TB) is a rare pathology originating from the external auditory canal (EAC). Surgery remains the gold standard to achieve local control.Aims/Objectives:The aim of this study was to evaluate overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) after surgery of the SCC of EAC.
Material and methods: A retrospective chart review in a tertiary referral center included 26 patients: 23 were operated with lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR, n = 10) and extended temporal bone resection (ETBR, n = 13). The outcomes were OS and DFS.
Results: Adjuvant radiotherapy was performed in 91.3% (n = 21/23). Mean age was 60.8 and sex ratio was 1. Median follow-up was 43 months; The 5-years OS was 90% (± 9.5%) and 47.7% (± 12.9%) for stage I/II and III/IV respectively (p = .033). DFS was 67.6% (IC 95%, 51.4%-88.9%) without statistical difference between early advanced stage. Incomplete margins (p = .004) and Stage IV(p < .001) were associated with poorer DFS. Free margins significantly correlated with better OS (HR = 9.8, p = .04).
Conclusion: En bloc surgical resection with free margins, coupled with postoperative radiotherapy, provides optimal local control. For stage IV tumors, where complete margins are achievable, ETBR is recommended to enhance local control.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
