RESUMO

Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (ESCCs) are often accompanied by head and neck second primary tumors (HNSPTs). The prognosis of patients with an additional HNSPT is worse compared with patients with only ESCC. Therefore, early detection of HNSPTs may improve the overall outcome of patients with ESCC. The purpose of this study was to investigate the yield of endoscopic screening for HNSPTs in patients with primary ESCC. Methods: We conducted a systematic literature search of all available databases. Studies were included if ESCC patients were endoscopically screened for HNSPT. The primary outcome was the pooled prevalence of HNSPTs. Results: Twelve studies, all performed in Japan, were included in this systematic review with a total of 6483 patients. The pooled prevalence of HNSPTs was 6.7% (95% confidence interval: 4.9-8.4). The overall heterogeneity was high across the studies (I2 = 89.0%, p < 0.001). Most HNSPTs were low stage (85.3%) and located in the hypopharynx (60.3%). The proportion of synchronous (48.2%) and metachronous (51.8%) HNSPTs was comparable. Conclusion: Based on our results, HNSPT screening could be considered in patients with primary ESCC. All studies were performed in Japan; it is therefore not clear whether this consideration applies to the Western world.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: An increase in detection of early-stage asymptomatic lung tumors could increase the overall survival rate of lung cancer patients. A new approach to cancer (pre-)screening focusses on detecting field cancerization instead of the tumor itself. The objective of this study was to investigate the use of optical spectroscopy to detect field cancerization in the buccal mucosa of lung cancer patients. METHODS: Optical buccal mucosa measurements were performed in lung cancer patients and controls using multidiameter single-fiber reflectance spectroscopy. We analyzed whether the measured optical parameters could distinguish lung cancer patients from controls. RESULTS: Twenty-three lung cancer patients, 24 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) control patients, and 36 non-COPD controls were included. The majority of tumors were non-small-cell lung carcinomas (96%) and classified as stage I (48%). The tissue scattering properties µs' and γ at 800 nm and the tissue bilirubin concentration were all near-significantly different (P=.072, 0.058, and 0.060, respectively) between the lung cancer and COPD group. µs' at 800 nm had a sensitivity of 74% and a specificity of 63%. The microvascular blood oxygen saturation of the lung cancer patients was also higher than the COPD patients (78% vs. 62%, P=.002), this is probably a consequence of the systemic effect of COPD. CONCLUSIONS: We have demonstrated that µs' at 800 nm is increased in the buccal mucosa of patients with lung cancer compared to controls with COPD. This might be an indication of field cancerization in the oral cavity of patients with lung cancer.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) has several unfavourable characteristics and therefore requires careful monitoring. The goal of this study was to identify whether serum squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCa) could predict IP recurrence. DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study. SETTING: Department of otolaryngology/head and neck surgery, Erasmus Medical Centre, Rotterdam, the Netherlands. PARTICIPANTS: One hundred and thirty patients with IP treated at our centre with SCCa measurements available were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS: Follow-up of patients with IP since 2005, recurrence was defined as new disease within primary localisation at least 3 months after adequate surgical removal. We analysed the association between IP recurrence and serum SCCa values measured preoperatively, postoperatively and during follow-up. RESULTS: Preoperative SCCa values or values measured during follow-up were not associated with risk of recurrence. Postoperative SCCa was positively associated with the risk of recurrence (P < 0.001). Postoperative SCCa had a good discriminative ability for the identification of recurrence with an area under the curve of 80.9%. CONCLUSION: Postoperative SCCa is strongly associated with risk of recurrence. This might help the surgeon in the postoperative setting by identifying high-risk patients and planning follow-up strategy tailored to the individual patient.
