We aimed to characterize patient demographics, injury‐related variables, and operative management in this population.The National Trauma Data Bank was queried for open or closed orbital floor fractures from 2008 to 2016. Clinical data were extracted.Overall, 148,592 orbital floor fractures were identified, with 142,577 (95.9%) closed‐ and 6158 (4.1%) open‐type fractures. A total of 106,243 (71.5%) patients were male and the median patient age was 41 years. The majority of patients (79.2%) had abbreviated injury scale scores of ≤2, indicating minor/moderate injury. Fracture mechanism of injury (MOI) differed by gender, with the most frequent being unarmed fights in men (34.3%) and falls in women (14.0%). There were 29,600 patients (19.9%) with isolated orbital floor (I‐OF) fractures. The MOI most strongly associated with operative intervention of with I‐OF fractures were penetrating injuries caused by a firearm (odds ratio [OR]: 2.91; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.62–5.20) and cuttings/piercings (OR: 2.17; 95% CI: 1.29–3.65).This large epidemiological study reveals that orbital floor fractures tend to present with minor or moderate injuries and are more likely to require operative intervention in setting of firearm or cut/pierce injuries.","PeriodicalId":510563,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"50 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139447966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients who require salvage TL (STL) or primary (chemo)radiation therapy are at higher risk for developing PCF. Due to the quality‐of‐life burden of PCF on patients, limiting this occurrence is crucial.We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing STL with placement of Montgomery salivary bypass tube (MSBT)™ for at least 2 weeks duration between 2013 and 2017 at a single institution. Our patients all underwent free flap reconstruction. Our primary outcome of interest was development of PCF. Secondary outcomes included demographics, previous treatment, base of tongue (BOT) involvement, extent of defect, concurrent neck dissection (ND), and margin status. Univariate χ2 analysis was used to evaluate factors associated with PCF.Forty‐four patients underwent STL with Montgomery tube placement and free flap reconstruction. Eight developed PCF (18.2%). The average age was 61.6 years; 36 patients were male (81.8%), whereas eight patients were female (18.2%). There was no association between PCF and previous chemoradiation versus radiation (15.8% vs. 33.3%, P < 0.30), BOT involvement versus not (11.1 vs. 22.2%, P < 0.38), circumferential versus partial defect (18.8% vs. 17.9%, P < 0.94), ND versus none (10% vs. 25%, P < 0.20), or margin status.PCF complicated 18.2% of STL cases at our institution and was not associated with differences in primary treatment modality, presence of concomitant ND, extent of pharyngeal defect, BOT involvement, or positive frozen or permanent surgical margin.","PeriodicalId":510563,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"87 17","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139381562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to investigate the feasibility and diagnostic accuracy of SNB and unexpected drainage patterns in patients with cT1‐T2N0 OSCC and a history of previous head and neck cancer comprising treatment of the neck, that is, surgery, radiotherapy, or both.Fifty patients with a previously treated neck diagnosed with a new primary or recurrent cN0 OSCC between 2014 and 2021 were included and retrospectively analyzed. Feasibility was assessed by the rate of successfully performed SNB neck staging procedures. Based on follow‐up data, the diagnostic performance of SNB was evaluated by calculation of negative predictive value (NPV) and false omission rate (FOR).A SNB staging procedure was successfully performed in 76% (38/50) of the patients. Technical failures were due to the lack of drainage preoperatively or failure in intraoperative SN detection. In patients successfully staged with SNB, the rate of a positive SN was 13% (5/38). In the SNB‐negative group, no patients were diagnosed with a regional node recurrence during follow‐up, and the NPV and FOR were 100% and 0%, respectively. Unexpected lymphatic drainage occurred in 32% (12/38) of the patients.SNB is technically feasible in cT1‐2N0 OSCC patients with a previously treated neck with a high diagnostic accuracy. Importantly, SNB enables the detection of individual and unexpected lymphatic drainage patterns.","PeriodicalId":510563,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"34 40","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139382672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we aimed to evaluate the presence and copy number of the EBV genome in tonsil tissue specimens of patients with tonsillar hypertrophy.A cross‐sectional study was performed on 50 fresh tonsil tissue samples from children, who underwent tonsillectomy because of tonsillar hypertrophy. Patients' tonsil tissues were evaluated using real‐time polymerase chain reaction for EBV genome and viral load. Finally, the results were analyzed using SPSS software.EBV genome was detected in 58% (29/50) of tonsillar tissues. The relationship between EBV genome detection rate and age groups was in the statistical significance range (P = 0.051). Among 29 positive cases, the average EBV viral load was (3.1 × 105) copy/g ± (0.5 × 105) copy/g. No significant difference was observed among different sex and age groups for EBV viral load.Herein, EBV genome detection could support the colonization of EBV in the tonsils, which may have a direct or indirect association with the pathogenesis of tonsillar hypertrophy.","PeriodicalId":510563,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"8 25","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139389667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pure tone audiometry (PTA) and distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) was carried out in all patients to assess the auditory side effects of the drug. Data was collected, compiled, and analyzed statistically using appropriate statistical tests. The relationship between ototoxicity and various demographic parameters such as age, sex, hemoglobin (Hb) level, S. ferritin, duration, and dose of chelation therapy was also assessed.Sixteen patients had abnormal DPOAE and the number of patients with pure tone average above 25 dB HL which was taken as hearing deficit on PTA was 13. No statistically significant relationship between hearing loss and age, gender, S. ferritin, duration of therapy, cumulative dose, Hb levels were found.Despite being a lifesaving drug, the advantages of chelating agent‐Deferasirox must be weighed against its probable ototoxic effects. We could not find a relationship of ototoxicity with variable parameters (age, gender, Hb level, Ferritin level, duration, and cumulative dose of drug), thus future research is encouraged to form a definitive basis.","PeriodicalId":510563,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139184560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
