Background: Our study aimed to assess the significance of worst pattern invasion (WPOI) and its effect on survival in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC). Methods: This is a retrospective patients with OCSCC who underwent surgery. Univariate bivariate analysis were used analyze association between WPOI demographics, tumor characteristics treatment. The overall was evaluated. Results: 3-year OS 77% for ≤4 70% 5 (p=0.5). In tongue subsite, 81% 57% (p=0.08). WPOI-5 showed significant...
Ciprofloxacin is a commonly used antibiotic for gastrointestinal and genitourinary tract infections with considerably good safety profile. However, occasionally it may cause life-threatening complications. Two case reports of bone marrow depression 1 thrombocytopenia due to ciprofloxacin therapy have been reported in literature. We report urinary infection an otherwise healthy woman.
Abstract Background The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) released a new staging system for human papilloma virus (HPV) positive oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) in their eighth edition. role of smoking HPV remains controversial and is not factored into the updated system. Methods Single institutional, retrospective chart review patients with OPC from 2009 to 2017 was completed. Dichotomized data were collected 0–9 ≥10 pack‐year histories. Kaplan–Meier survival curves compared overall (OS)...
Sarcoma are rare in head and neck region radiation induced sarcoma (RIS) even poses challenges for diagnosis proper management.We report a case of 38 year old male who was treated carcinoma right lateral border tongue with surgery radiotherapy, presented rapidly progressing mass floor mouth after 4 years.Biopsy imaging confirmed the managed wide local excision hemimandibulectomy reconstruction by pectoralis major mayocutaneous flap.Patient completed follow up one half doing well.RIS is...
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer lacks effective targeted therapies. HPV(-) patients have a 50-60% recurrence rate could benefit from adjuvant therapy. Although HPV(+) significantly better survival, 20% persistent/recurrent disease. Therefore, biomarkers potentially help identify that would agents. Our objective was to evaluate if mutational biomarker analysis of tumor samples OPSCC predict and/ or persistence in undergoing definitive therapy with...

Abstract Introduction/Objective The anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene is a receptor tyrosine located in the 2p23.2 region. Normally, dimerization of ALK by binding to its ligand activates autophosphorylation c-termius and downstream PI3K, MAPK JAK3 pathways. abnormally hyperactivated fusion 3’ half containing domain with 5’ portion other genes, resulting independent activation receptor. tumors harboring these translocations are termed as ALK-positive can be treated inhibitors. Methods We...
