Management of the Neck for Non-melanoma Skin Cancer
Abstract
Purpose of Review
To summarize the current management of the neck lymph node basin for head and neck non-melanoma skin cancers.
Recent Findings
Over the last 5 years, there have been updates to staging for cSCC and MCC. T classification of the AJCC staging system has been changed to match the UICC staging system. MCC staging has been updated based on data from the National Cancer Data Base. Sentinel lymph node biopsy, while established in MCC, is playing a growing role in the management of high-risk N0 cSCC.
Summary
The optimal management of N0 neck varies by metastatic potential. In low-risk malignancy, no workup is necessary. In cSCC, risk stratification is necessary. High-risk tumors with N0 necks should undergo preoperative imaging with CT and targeted FNA of suspicious lymph nodes. If radiologically negative, a SLNB should be considered. Selective neck dissection should be performed for N+ disease and positive SLNB. Elective neck dissection is not routinely recommended and should be reserved for positive parotid nodal disease. Merkel cell carcinoma has high rates of nodal metastases and requires preoperative imaging with targeted FNA of suspected metastases. SLNB should be performed for N0 disease to guide prognostication and further treatment. Management of negative SLN is controversial, and most can be observed while radiation may be considered for high-risk patients. Positive SLN requires completion neck dissection and radiation.

Present and future perspective of photodynamic therapy for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
Photodynamic therapy may benefit patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma who are not eligible for surgery. Photodynamic therapy can be modified to provide better effect by use of microneedles or laser, by use of intralesional injection of photosensitizers instead of topical application, by use of nanoparticles or by use of adjuncts.

An unexpected asymptomatic epiglottal site of Kimura disease
Publication date: Available online 26 October 2018
Source: European Annals of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Diseases
Author(s): F. Dezoteux, R. Dubois, G. Lefèvre, J.P. Lecoutre, D. Staumont-Sallé, O. Carpentier
Abstract
Introduction
Kimura disease (KD) is a chronic lymphoproliferative disorder of unknown etiology that affects the skin and lymph nodes, mostly observed in males of Asian descent. The natural history of asymptomatic epiglottal KD remains unknown. This rare site of KD is often only diagnosed when tumor growth starts to obstruct the upper airways.
Observation
A 34-year-old North African male presented with fatigue and multiple, slowly progressive, fluctuating skin nodules in the right mandibular and retroauricular regions. Computed tomography of the head and neck revealed a large soft tissue tumor close to the right mandibular body and unexpected thickening of the epiglottis. Transnasal laryngoscopy confirmed the CT findings and showed thickening of the epiglottis. The diagnosis of KD was based on histological examination of biopsy specimens taken from the right mandibular tumor, a cervical lymph node, and the epiglottis.
Discussion
Most cases of KD with epiglottal involvement present with dysphonia and dysphagia. No consensus guidelines are available concerning the complementary investigations that should be performed. This case report raises the question of whether patients with suspected KD should be systematically screened for lesions in unusual and potentially dangerous anatomic sites.

High expression of CCL2 in tumor cells and abundant infiltration with CD14 positive macrophages predict early relapse in breast cancer
Abstract
Macrophages are important for the function of the innate immune system, and in solid tumors, they represent a significant proportion of the tumor mass. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) have a M2 phenotype and show a multitude of pro-tumoral functions, promoting tumor cell survival, proliferation, and dissemination. CCL2, synthesized by tumor and stromal cells, initiates a chemokine cascade inducing these processes. We studied by immunohistochemistry (IHC) the frequency of TAMs and CCL2 expressing cells in three groups of primary tumor (PT)-recurrence (R) pairs, where relapse was recorded within 2 years (group 1), between 5 and 10 years (group 2), and after 10 years (group 3). In our study all established breast cancers were heavily infiltrated by CD68 positive cells. Both in PTs and in R lesions the infiltration was more abundant in the peritumoral than in the intratumoral stroma. The mean frequency of M2 marker and CD14 positive cells in the intratumoral stroma and CCL2 expressing tumor cells was higher in the Rs as compared to the corresponding PTs. In PTs, a high frequency of CD14 positive cells and a high expression of CCL2 by tumor cells was associated with an early recurrence. The findings support the current understanding of immune cell orchestrated development, progression and metastatic spread of breast cancer. Our study showed that a high frequency of CCL2 positive tumor cells and CD14 positive TAMs are significant risk factors for rapid tumor recurrence. Potential targets for intervention are discussed.

Author(s): Mistry Taher, Natarajan Srivalli, Mistry Yusuf
Abstract
Aim
To evaluate the clinical outcomes of laser skin resurfacing using ultrapulse CO2 laser and manual dermabrasion using medium grit drywall sand screen for scar revision in adults with Fitzpatrick Skin type III – V.
Method
ology: A total of 20 post-surgical and post-traumatic scars in individuals with Fitzpatrick Skin type III – V were included in this study. Pre-operative evaluation of the scar was done using the Manchester scar rating scale by three blinded observers. Each scar to be treated was divided into two equal halves and each half was allotted to either group A (ultrapulse CO2 laser resurfacing) or group B (manual dermabrasion) randomly.
Postoperative clinical evaluation was done by the same observers using the Manchester scar rating scale at the end of, 1st, 3rd, and 6th month, respectively.
Results
This study showed that both the methods are effective in improving the appearance of the post-surgical and post-traumatic scars. However, there is no significant difference among them (p=0.978). Hyperpigmentation occurred in four scars in both the halves treated with manual dermabrasion and laser resurfacing, however it had resolved by the end of the 6th month in all the four scars.
Conclusion
This study concluded that CO2 laser resurfacing and manual dermabrasion, both are equally efficacious and safe methods for scar resurfacing in adults with Fitzpatrick skin type III - V.

Unilateral endoscopic resection with transnasal craniectomy for sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinoma: A bi-institutional case-control study on 54 patients
Publication date: December 2018
Source: Oral Oncology, Volume 87
Author(s): Alberto Schreiber, Marco Ferrari, Davide Mattavelli, Vittorio Rampinelli, Stefano Taboni, Alperen Vural, Maurizio Bignami, Paolo Castelnuovo, Piero Nicolai
Abstract
Objectives
Intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (ITAC) of the ethmoid mostly affects patients exposed to wood dust and has been traditionally treated with bilateral resection. The aim of the present study was to validate unilateral endoscopic resection with transnasal craniectomy (uERTC) in selected ITACs.
Materials and methods
Patients affected by ITAC receiving uERTC from 2004 to 2017 at two tertiary referral centers were retrospectively analyzed. A control group of patients treated with bilateral endoscopic resection with transnasal craniectomy (bERTC) was selected. Olfaction, taste, and quality of life were evaluated. Survival and functional outcomes in the two groups were compared.
Results
Fifty-four patients who underwent uERTC (case group: 27/54) or bERTC (control group: 27/54) were enrolled. The two groups were statistically comparable. Five-year overall (OS), disease-specific (DSS), recurrence-free (RFS) survivals, and local recurrence rates were not significantly different between groups. Hospitalization time was significantly shorter in the uERTC group (p = 0.0004) and no significant difference in terms of complications was demonstrated. The rate of subjective olfaction preservation was significantly higher in the uERTC group (45.5%) than in the bERTC group (0.0%) (p = 0.0007). Median 22-Items Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) values were not significantly different between groups. No significant association of olfaction and taste preservation/worsening with reconstructive technique, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy was observed.
Conclusions
uERTC is an adequate surgical procedure for selected unilateral ITAC with similar survival rates and lower morbidity compared to bERTC. A rigorous follow-up of patients with ITAC is crucial and strongly recommended independently of the extent of resection.

Abstract
Objectives
This study aimed to evaluate the proposed changes in the eighth edition of the tumor-node-metastasis staging system (TNM-8) compared with the seventh edition (TNM-7) in terms of pathologic subtypes, using a large multicenter thyroid cancer cohort.
Materials and methods
We retrospectively reviewed 7717 patients with papillary (PTC) and 273 with follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) who underwent thyroid surgery between 1996 and 2005. We assessed the proportion of variation explained (PVE) to compare the predictive accuracy of disease-specific survival (DSS).
Results
During a median 11.3 years of follow-up, 169 (2%) disease-specific deaths were recorded. In patients with PTC, the 10-year DSS rates of stages I, II, III, and IV disease in TNM-8 were 99.6%, 95.7%, 81.5%, and 54.8%, respectively; the corresponding rates in TNM-7 were 99.6%, 98.4%, 98.4%, and 90.1%, respectively. In patients with FTC, the 10-year DSS rates of stages I, II, III, and IV disease in TNM-8 were 97.2%, 69.8%, 50.0%, and 45.5%, respectively; the corresponding rates in TNM-7 were 98.3%, 90.0%, 92.3%, and 42.1%, respectively. Comparing TNM-7 and TNM-8, the PVE values increased from 3.4% to 4.7% in the PTC group, whereas they decreased from 17.5% to 14.5% in the FTC group.
Conclusion
Our study suggests that the changes in TNM-8 have improved the clinical usefulness of the TNM staging system in terms of predicting DSS in patients with PTC but not FTC. Further studies to establish a more predictable TNM staging system that focuses on patients with FTC are necessary.

Can asthma be well controlled with NAEPP guideline care in morbidly obese children? The Breathmobile
Publication date: Available online 27 October 2018
Source: Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology
Author(s): Tricia Morphew, Stanley P Galant
Abstract
Background
Obesity is thought to be associated with poor asthma control, increased health resource utilization, and reduced responsiveness to inhaled corticosteroids.
Objective
Based on previous experience our hypothesis was that by improved access to comprehensive guideline care that outcomes in normal weight would be comparable in obese asthmatic children.
Methods
This was a retrospective cohort study of predominately Hispanic children (3-18 years of age), in underserved areas of Orange County, CA, who enrolled in the Breathmobile Program from 2003 -2012. Outcomes were examined using Cox regression and generalized estimating equations analyses, adjusted for potential confounding factors.
Results
Clinical outcomes in over 1200 children followed for a mean of 6 visits (SD=2.2) across 403 days (SD=112) were improved, on average, regardless of BMI. MOB patients were able to achieve significant reductions of approximately 60% or more in report of ED visits, hospitalizations, school absenteeism, usual exercise limitations, and exacerbations to levels that were comparable to NW patients. The importance of close follow-up, particularly for the MOB patient, was evidenced by achieving 80% cumulative probability of well control asthma by visit 3, similar to patients in lower BMI risk groups with good adherence, when the visit interval did not exceed 90 days. These outcomes were achieved across all BMI groups with similar mean step of therapy, adjusted for severity (p<.001).
Conclusion
Access to effective community-based care where trust, education, and continuity of care consistent with NAEPP guidelines is possible, as demonstrated by the Breathmobile Program, can provide an opportunity for asthmatic children in all BMI categories to achieve well controlled disease.

Progestogen Hypersensitivity: presentation and natural history
Publication date: Available online 26 October 2018
Source: Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology
Author(s): Dinah Foer, Kathleen M. Buchheit
Abstract
Objective
To review the published medical literature on the clinical presentation, risk factors, and natural history of hypersensitivity reactions to progestogens.
Data Sources
Through the use of PubMed, we conducted a review of allergy, dermatology, and obstetric literature for cases and case series of patients with hypersensitivity reactions to exogenous or endogenous progestogens. There are no longitudinal, prospective studies related to progestogen hypersensitivity.
Study Selections
Publications were selected that described cases that were clinically consistent with progesterone hypersensitivity with positive testing or clear symptoms with exposure to progestogens to confirm the diagnosis.
Results
Progestogen hypersensitivity symptoms can be triggered by endogenous progesterone or by exogenous progestins used for contraception or fertility treatments. Symptoms are varied and include dermatitis, urticaria, asthma, and anaphylaxis.
Conclusions
While the medical literature of progestogen hypersensitivity is limited to case reports and small case series, there exists significant heterogeneity in clinical presentation between patients.

The Use of Video Glasses Improved Learning of Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Publication date: Available online 27 October 2018
Source: International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology
Author(s): Evie Landry, Michael Yong, Julie Pauwels, Neil K. Chadha
Abstract
Objective
One of the most common challenges in surgical education for trainees is gaining practical experience through observing procedures in the operating room. Due to the nature of some procedures, a narrow surgical view severely limits the learning experience. Video glasses are new devices that offer the potential to project the primary surgeon's exact view to learners in real-time, allowing for an enhanced operative learning experience.
Study Design
Single center randomized prospective trial.
Setting
Tertiary care pediatric hospital.
Participants
Using block randomization, medical students and surgical residents observed either a tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy, either directly at table-side or by real-time video feed from the surgeon's video glasses projected to a screen in the operating room, in random order. Participants then completed a survey comparing aspects of their learning experience viewing the procedure through the video feed in comparison to direct observation.
Main Outcome
Measures: Evaluating the hypothesis that video glasses provided an improved overall learning experience and a realistic simulation of the open surgical procedures tested.
Results
23 trainees participated in the study. Survey results demonstrated that the overall learning experience with the use of video glasses was significantly improved when compared to direct visualization (average Visual Analog scale (VAS) score 82/100 vs. 64/100, p=0.021).Video glasses were shown to be superior when comparing the view of the surgical field (83/100 vs. 54/100 on VAS, p<0.001) and the ability to identify anatomical structures (79/100 vs. 56/100 on VAS, p=0.001). The ease of following surgical steps with video glasses was also shown to be better than by direct visualization (81/100 vs. 69/100 on VAS, p=0.039). All participants stated that video glasses closely simulated the learning environment of the real-life open procedure.
Conclusion
This study showed that the use of video glasses was beneficial for surgical education and a realistic tool for learners at varying levels of training. Video glasses may significantly improve the learning experience for procedures with a narrow field of view.

Prediction of uptake and retention of conventional hearing aids in Korean pediatric patients with unilateral hearing loss
Publication date: Available online 26 October 2018
Source: International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology
Author(s): Hyesook Lee, Hyunyong Lee, Heil Noh
Abstract
Objective
The purpose of this study was to describe and predict hearing aid uptake and retention in Korean pediatric patients with unilateral hearing loss (UHL) in a secondary referral hospital.
Methods
This was a retrospective study using clinical data collected at the time of UHL diagnosis. The study included data collected from 2009 to 2016. Serial audiograms were extracted from clinical charts, and follow-up status and rehabilitation decisions were analyzed.
Results
Of 102 children and adolescents (9.5±5.1 years, 64 male), 52.9% followed a check-up schedule, and 31 (30.4%) obtained a hearing aid. Hearing threshold and speech discrimination scores were predictive parameters of hearing aid uptake. Among those who used a hearing aid, 17 (56.7%) subjects used it successfully based on significant predictive parameters of channel number.
Conclusion
Hearing aid retention in pediatric patients seems less predictable than in adults with UHL. No good predictable parameter for hearing aid retention was identified except channel number for pediatric UHL cases. Regular monitoring of hearing and selection of a multi-channel hearing aid are crucial to minimize the potential negative effects of UHL.

Uncommon presentation of desmoplastic fibroblastoma on the tongue of a female patient
Desmoplastic fibroblastoma (DF) is a rare benign soft tissue with spindle-to-stellate-shaped fibroblasts and myofibroblasts embedded in a prominent collagenous background. DF, mainly affecting subcutaneous and muscle tissue, very rarely occurs in the oral cavity. Hitherto, only one case of DF on the tongue has been reported. Here, we report another case. A 66-year-old woman was referred to our hospital with a mass formation in the tongue. On examination, a well-circumscribed, elastic, soft tumour with normal surface mucosa, measuring 13x12 mm, was observed on the left dorsal surface of her tongue. MRI and ultrasonography confirmed the mass, and a benign tongue tumour was suspected. The tumour was surgically resected under general anaesthesia 1 month later, leading to the histopathological diagnosis of DF. She experienced an uneventful clinical recovery after surgery, with no recurrence noted for more than 1 year postoperatively.

Aggressive treatment in paediatric or young patients with drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DiHS)/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is associated with future development of type III polyglandular autoimmune syndrome
We experienced a 6-year-old case of drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DiHS)/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) with subsequent development autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's thyroiditis), type 1 diabetes with antithyroglobulin, thyroid peroxidase, insulinoma-associated antigen and anti-insulin antibodies at 4 months, alopecia at 7 months, vitiligo, uveitis due to Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease at 8 months after clinical resolution of the DiHS/DRESS. He was diagnosed as type III polyglandular autoimmune syndrome (PASIII) after DiHS/DRESS. Prompted by this case, we sought to determine which triggering factors were responsible for later development of PASIII in previously published cases with autoimmune sequelae. In the literature review, five patients with DIHS/DRESS were found to develop autoimmune sequelae consistent with PASIII. All cases with PASIII were much younger than those without them. Four out of the five patients were treated with intravenous immunoglobulin or pulsed prednisolone in the acute stage, although effective in short-term outcomes.

Lemierres syndrome: a life-threatening sore throat
Description
A 25-year-old previously healthy Japanese man presented to our emergency department with a 1-day history of dyspnoea, following a sore throat in the previous week. Physical examination revealed acute exudative tonsillitis and right-sided diminished breath sounds. The laboratory analysis revealed a significantly elevated C reactive protein level of 30.67 mg/dL. A CT scan with contrast revealed a thrombophlebitis of the left internal jugular vein, a right-sided empyema and bilateral septic pulmonary emboli (figure 1).

When things are not quite what they seem!
Description
A 61-year-old man presented with recurrent presyncope, 12-lead ECG and echocardiographic features of a right ventricular (RV) cardiomyopathy, and non-sustained ventricular tachycardia on Holter monitoring. During defibrillator implant for presumed arrhythmogenic RV cardiomyopathy, ventricular pacing parameters were satisfactory and the following images were obtained (figure 1). The implantable cardioverter defibrillator lead appeared well sited in the RV apex on posterior-anterior fluoroscopy (figure 1A). However, screening in the left anterior oblique (LAO) projection raised doubts about the true lead position (figure 1B). On-table echocardiography and 12-lead ECG confirmed lead placement within the left ventricle (LV). Pullback of the lead, while screening, suggested passage to the systemic circulation via an atrial septal defect (ASD; figure 2A–D and video 1). Attempts to reposition the lead by advancing it from the superior vena cava (SVC) revealed an anomalous connection to a right pulmonary...

Concurrent testicular torsion and acute incarcerated inguinal hernia in an adolescent boy
Testicular torsion and acute incarcerated inguinal hernia are both common surgical emergencies in the paediatric population. We present the unusual case of a 16-year-old adolescent boy who presented with both of these conditions concurrently. He had a history of a right inguinal hernia, but ultrasound confirmed a testicular torsion and we employed manual detorsion in the emergency department prior to taking him to the operating room. We successfully salvaged the testicle in addition to performing inguinal hernia reduction and repair. The goal of this report is to emphasise the importance of maintaining a broad differential and early utilisation of ultrasound in the patient with acute groin pain.

Pleural tuberculosis: a key differential diagnosis for pleural thickening, even without obvious risk factors for tuberculosis in a low incidence setting
We report the case of a 64-year-old woman, presenting with pleuritic chest pain and weight loss. She had a previous history of breast malignancy and no clear risk factors for tuberculosis (TB). Initial investigations showed a right-sided pleural effusion and pleural thickening suggestive of malignancy, which would have been in keeping with the clinical presentation. Initial pleural biopsy showed features suggestive of possible TB infection, though no growth on cultures. A repeat biopsy was negative on initial microscopy, but was culture positive for Mycobacterium tuberculosis, also identifying isoniazid resistance. This case highlights that TB remains an important differential even in the absence of classical risk factors, and illustrates the diagnostic challenges it poses. It also highlights the value of culture positivity in identification of drug resistance and facilitation of appropriate treatment.
