The comprehensive surgical management consists of Wide Local Excision of the tumor and Neck Dissection with removal of Submandibular gland. The submandibular gland accounts for 70-90 % of unstimulated salivary volume. Its excision as a part of neck dissection has been found to cause high Incidence (21% vs 7%) of postoperative xerostomia. Recent studies have highlighted that the preservation of the SMG is possible and oncologically safe in early-grade OCSCC with N0 neck as the involvement of SMG in such cases is low and its preservation decreases the chances of xerostomia.Materials and methods: 80 subjects were included in the study to estimate the prevalence of metastatic submandibular gland involvement in oral cavity squamous cell carcinomas. The presence of metastasis into the salivary gland was studied and the mechanism/route of involvement was analysed. The comparison was made between the early and advanced tumors for SMG metastasis irrespective of the primary subsite involvement.Results: In the current study low prevalence (6.2 %) of metastasis to SMG was seen. It was seen in high-grade tumors only. None of the early-grade tumors showed any evidence of SMG metastasis. The most common pattern (80%) of glandular involvement was a direct extension from the primary tumor.Conclusions: Our study concludes that SMG preservation neck dissections can be carried out in early-grade OCSCC irrespective of primary tumor site involvement. The advantages of preserving the SMG are multiple. Furthermore, the morbidity is markedly decreased with its preservation without any compromise on oncological safety.","PeriodicalId":14607,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":"36 5","pages":"581-586"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11421762/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142346829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adenotonsillectomy is recommended to improve prognosis and quality of life. This case-control study compared facial angles and lip position related to dentofacial and mouth growth in symptomatic children with adenoid hypertrophy and asymptomatic control groups.Materials and methods: The study included children aged 5 to 7 who presented with obstructive symptoms and confirmed severe adenoid hypertrophy in lateral neck radiography. Standard lateral photography was taken. The Nasofacial and Nasomental angles, and upper and lower lip positions and their distance behind the Ricketts line, were measured and compared with the normal control group.Results: This study included 54 children with severe adenoid hypertrophy and 66 normal children. Facial angles were not significantly different between the two groups, but the mean horizontal position of the upper and lower lip in children with adenoid hypertrophy was significantly lower than in the control group (P value = 0.05). The lips were too close to the Ricketts line compared with the control group.Conclusions: This research demonstrates that children with severe adenoid hypertrophy have more dentofacial disorders than others. Adenotonsillectomy surgery is necessary for children with obstructive symptoms caused by tonsil enlargement, and if symptoms like snoring persist post-surgery, complementary orthodontic treatments should be considered.","PeriodicalId":14607,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":"36 5","pages":"587-593"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11421768/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142346846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It encompasses various symptoms affecting voice and speech. The objective of this study is to report the management of patients with ADSD using the transnasal endoscopic approach for laryngeal Botulinum Toxin (Botox) injection.Materials and methods: A retrospective chart review of patients with ADSD who underwent transnasal endoscopic laryngeal Botox injection was conducted. Voice outcome measures included the Voice Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10) score and the degree of speech fluency.Results: Eight patients with ADSD who underwent 20 office-based transnasal endoscopic laryngeal Botox injections were included. The most commonly injected sites were the thyroarytenoid muscle (TA) and the false vocal fold in 95% and 55% of the cases, respectively. The mean dose of injected Botox was 2.48 ± 0.55 IU in the TA muscle, and 2.14 ± 0.53 IU in the false vocal fold. The mean amount of Botox injected in the larynx was 7.16 ± 2.42 IU. The mean follow-up period was 17.7 ± 13.3 months. There was marked improvement in speech fluency in 64.7% of the cases and mild improvement in one third of the cases.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the watch-like BM2000A for screening obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).Materials and methods: 102 patients complaining of sleep breathing disorders were included; 81% were men and 19% were women. All participants underwent overnight simultaneous polysomnography (PSG) and BM2000A sleep monitoring. The number of apneas and hypopneas, apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), percentage of time spent with oxygen saturation under 90%, average oxygen saturation, lowest oxygen saturation, and duration of sleep were computed by the BM2000A and PSG. Then, these parameters were compared to validate the BM2000A.Results: All parameters, measured with BM2000A, had a good correlation (r ≥ 0.6, p < 0.0001) with PSG-derived indexes, except for sleep time (r = 0.19, p = 0.061) and hypopnea index (r = 0.4, p < 0.0001).

This study aims to assess the head and neck sarcomas pattern in Isfahan, Iran, compare its results with previous findings, and investigate treatment methods and the recurrence and survival rate.Materials and methods: This study was done on 160 patients diagnosed with head and neck sarcomas between 2001 and 2020 in four medical centers in Isfahan, Iran. The patients with head and neck sarcoma confirmed by biopsy were included. Patient information included sex, age at diagnosis, and full characteristics of the mass. Disease recurrence and 2-year and 5-year overall survival (OS) were investigated by phone.Results: Among 160 patients, 94 (58.8%) were male. The mean age was 36.9 ± 23.2 years. The neck was the most reported location for sarcomas (N=34, 21.3%). Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma was the most frequent histopathologic pattern (N=48, 30.0%).
