RESUMO

Patients with carcinoma buccal mucosa requiring marginal mandibulectomy pose various key challenges with regard to reconstruction. To study the role and feasibility of the PMMC flap reconstruction in patients of carcinoma buccal mucosa with intact mandible. Study design: retrospective analysis of prospectively maintained data at a tertiary cancer institute in India. Inclusion criteria: all patients of carcinoma buccal mucosa undergoing marginal mandibulectomy at our institute from 1st Jan 2015 to 31st March 2018 with reconstruction done by the PMMC flap. The retrospective analysis showed 82 patients satisfied the inclusion criteria. Median age of the patients was 46 years. Seventy-seven (93.90%) patients were male while 5 (6.09%) patients were female. Median Ryle's tube dependency was 13 days. Median follow-up period was 28 months. All the patients had acceptable cosmesis and mouth opening with minimal morbidity. PMMC flap reconstruction after marginal mandibulectomy in patients with carcinoma buccal mucosa is a robust, cosmetically, and functionally acceptable option.

RESUMO

Lymph nodal metastasis is one of the most important prognostic factors determining survival in patients with carcinoma esophagus. Radical esophagectomy, with the resection of surrounding lymph nodes, is considered the prime treatment of carcinoma esophagus. An extensive lymphadenectomy improves the accuracy of staging and betters locoregional control, but its effect on survival is still not apparent and carries the disadvantage of increased morbidity. The extent of lymphadenectomy during esophagectomy also remains debatable, with many studies revealing contradictory results, especially in the era of neoadjuvant therapy. The pattern of distribution and the number of nodal metastasis are modified by neoadjuvant therapy. The paper reviews the existing evidence to determine whether increased lymph node yield improves oncological outcomes in patients undergoing esophagectomy with particular attention to those patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy.
