Though there are studies addressing the role of neck dissection in organ preservation protocol, a lacuna still exists as far as the question of upfront neck dissection arises. Despite the potential benefits of upfront neck dissection; the benefits have not been well researched and thus its place in management of head-neck cancers undergoing organ preservation protocol is still questionable. We conducted an observational study in 22 patients with T1 - 2N2 - 3a biopsy proven squamous cell carcinoma of hypopharynx, oropharynx and laryngopharynx which were eligible for organ preservation protocol for their primary site. The primary outcome was to calculate their overall survival rate at 5 years. Overall 5 year survival rate was 68.12%, 5-year Disease free survival rate was 77.2%. The time to start for the primary site, after neck dissection however had a significant effect on overall survival. Those who had a delay of 21 days or less had 80.1% survival at 5 years compared to those who started at 30 days (61.3%) and drastically reduced in those who started at 39 days (20.4%). Log-rank test for the effect of nodal status showed a significant difference in terms of 5 year survival between the groups(p = .027). The 5 year survival rates for N2A, N3A and N2B nodal status were 88.8%, 50% ,and 54.5% ,respectively. We strongly favour upfront neck dissections in a subset of head-neck squamous cell carcinoma cases with T1 - 2N2 - 3a eligible for organ preservation regimen.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11456081/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394643","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}

This could be reflected in LMIC journal characteristics and research, which has never been investigated. We aim to characterize differences in the number, geographic distribution, publishing costs, reach, number of articles, citations, and impact factors of high-income country (HIC) journals compared to LMIC journals.Methods: We included journals listed under the category \"Otorhinolaryngology' in three major journal databases. From journal websites, we collected data related to financial model, waiver policy, access, and distribution. Additionally, from the Clarivate Journal Citation Reports 2022, we collected the following journal metrics: total articles, total citations, journal citation indicator, journal impact factor (JIF), 5-year JIF, and JIF without self cites.Results: 79.7% HIC journals offered English editing services, compared with 25.0% of LMIC journals. Additionally, 40.0% of HIC journals are solely open access compared with 92.0% in LMICs. Lower journal metrics were seen in LMIC journals, including 2022 mean total articles (107 HICs vs. 60 LMICs), total citations (4296 vs. 751), journal citation indicator (0.88 vs. 0.35), and journal impact factor (12.68 vs. 0.82).Conclusion: We have identified substantial differences in the distribution, English editing services, and journal metrics of HIC journals compared to LMIC journals. These may point to potential barriers to publishing and research access for those in LMICs. To support LMIC research, future work should evaluate opportunities to increase the number of ENT journals in LMICs, expand open access publishing, improve access to language services, and increase LMIC research impact.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11455830/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394525","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}

A suction drain is needed for efficient drainage of the neck post-dissection & with it arises a new dilemma, challenge or obsession amidst the practicing surgeons about the safe and efficient placement of suction drain in an anatomical location so that it does not injure or impair the anastomosis but will still be able to carry out its role efficiently. No prior studies are available regarding the safe practice. Hence the aim of our study was to explore & establish a reliable manoeuvre where the drain could be introduced in a safe and efficient way. From April of 2017-February of 2024 a prospective study was carried out in which cases of 517 patients were taken into account who underwent head and neck reconstruction using a free tissue transfer procedure where the suction drain tube was placed in the dependent part of the neck (i.e. the posterior triangle region) & the margin of sternocleidomastoid muscle was fixed with the pre-vertebral layer of the cervical fascia. The drain was secured externally with a percutaneous non- absorbable suture.Study design: A prospective Study.Study period: April 2017- February 2024.Observation: A thorough observation was carried out & no evidence of drain induced anastomotic complications were reported.Conclusion: Hence it can be assumed that this particular method of drain placement is both safe & efficient and it can act as a beacon among the surgeons who suffer a from a dilemma & challenge about where to place the drain safely & efficiently.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11455999/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394530","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}

Only five cases of extra nasopharyngeal angiofibroma originating from the middle turbinate have been reported in the literature, here we present the sixth such case. A 44-year-old female presented with a history of left-sided nasal obstruction and spontaneous, profuse and recurrent epistaxis. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan showed a hyper vascular mass arising from the left middle turbinate. A provisional diagnosis of extra nasopharyngeal angiofibroma was made and it was successfully surgically excised using a midfacial degloving approach under general anaesthesia. The diagnosis was confirmed with post-operative histopathological analysis. Due to the extremely rare occurrence of Extra Nasopharyngeal Angiofibromas originating from the middle turbinate and their infrequent presentation in female patients, misdiagnosis poses a greater risk of complications.

Subsequently, we conducted a comprehensive Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH) analysis, utilizing probes targeting NTRK-3, MALM-2, EWRS-1, HER-2, MDM-2, and NTRK1-2.Results: out of the initial cohort, 37 patients met the eligibility criteria for our study. We identified NTRK3 gene rearrangements in four patients (11%), two of whom had mucoepidermoid carcinoma, and the remaining two had acinic cell carcinoma. Notably, none of these patients had initially received a secretory carcinoma diagnosis. The primary treatment approach for all patients entailed surgical parotid gland resection. The overall survival (OS) for patients with NTRK3 rearrangements amounted to 78 months, with a corresponding progression-free survival (PFS) of 73 months.Conclusion: in summary, our case series suggests that secretory carcinomas exhibit a favorable clinical course and underscores the pivotal importance of distinguishing secretory carcinomas from other histological subtypes.","PeriodicalId":49190,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11455849/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142394555","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}

Depth was also recorded per-operatively with the help of measuring scale. Measurements were correlated and data was analysed statistically. There were 12 male patients and 23 females. 6 patients were < 3 years of age and 29 above. Study included 29 cases of Chronic Otitis Media and 6 of Bilateral Congenital Sensorineural Hearing Loss. Mean depth of mastoid antrum was 1.625 cm ± 0.228 on HRCT, and 1.651 cm ± 0.245 per-operatively. Depths of mastoid antrum on HRCT and per operatively amongst paediatrics as well as adult cases were comparable, but were more than the standard depth of 1 cm in 5 (82.3%) paediatrics cases and ˃1.5 cm in 24 (82.9%) adult patients.
