Background: Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare malignant neoplasm. Currently, no consistent and universal staging system for ENB exists. The aim of this study is to propose a TNM‐based classification. Subjects and methods: Hundred and forty‐two patients from our institution, with ENB pathologically confirmed between July 1978 and December 2018, were reviewed. All patients were restaged according to the Kadish stage, Morita stage and American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) T classification from clinical and radiological data. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses were performed to determine the impact of various factors. The goodness‐of‐fit and predictive accuracy of the different staging systems were calculated using R software. Results: The median follow‐up time was 57 months (range: 4‐229 months). According to the Kadish system, the 5‐year overall survival (OS) for patients with stage A, B and C was 100%, 83.6% and 64.2%, respectively (P =.055). With respect to the Morita classification, 5‐year OS for stages A, B, C and D was 100%, 83.6%, 70.7% and 50.0%, respectively (P =.004). Analysis based on the proposed staging model demonstrated 5‐year OS for stage I, II, III and IV disease was 100%, 88.9%, 75.9% and 49.0%, respectively (P <.001). In separate multivariate Cox regression models, only the novel staging system exhibited independent effects on OS (P =.004); the Akaike information criterion and Harrell's concordance index were also superior to those calculated for the Kadish or Morita systems. Conclusions: The proposed TNM‐based staging system offers an improved prognostic assessment for patients with ENB. Further verification and refinement from additional dataset application is required.

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of different treatment strategies and the potential prognostic factors of esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB).Materials and Methods: Between April 1984 and December 2018, 138 patients with non-metastatic ENB were retrospectively analyzed. The treatment modalities mainly included surgery alone (n = 7), radiotherapy alone (n = 33), concurrent chemoradiotherapy (n = 17), surgery combined with current chemoradiotherapy (n = 32), and surgery plus radiotherapy (n = 49).Results: The median follow-up time for the entire cohort was 61 months (range, 4-231 months). The 5-year overall survival (OS), locoregional failure-free survival (LRFFS), and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) rate were 69.6, 78.0 and 73.9%, respectively. Surgery combined with radiotherapy elicited superior survival results, and the combination of surgery and current chemoradiotherapy achieved the best prognoses for all patients, patients with advanced Kadish disease, patients receiving intensity modulated radiation therapy and those with positive surgical margin. Univariate analysis identified orbital invasion and treatment modalities were predictors for OS, LRFFS and DMFS. Lymph node metastasis was associated with OS and DMFS, but not LRFFS. Intracranial invasion, advanced Kadish stage and not receiving concurrent chemotherapy were also predictive of lower OS. Multivariate analyses indicated that lymph node metastasis was an independent prognostic factor affecting DMFS, whereas treatment modalities was independent prognostic factors for OS and LRFFS.Conclusion: Orbital invasion, intracranial invasion, lymph node metastasis and advanced Kadish disease at initial diagnosis were significantly associated with inferior prognosis. Regarding the treatment modality, the optimal strategy remined surgery with radiotherapy-based multimodality treatment. The concurrent chemoradiotherapy may play a more beneficial role.

Background and Objectives: Head and neck cancer patients often experience nutritional deterioration, which decreases their treatment tolerance and is associated with poor outcomes. We analyzed nutritional status in head and neck cancer patients before and during treatment, and its impact on clinical outcomes.Methods and Study Design: Between January 2009 and April 2012, 336 head and neck cancer patients receiving radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy were prospectively entered into the study. The Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) assessment was used to evaluate their nutritional status.Results: A total of 227 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and 109 patients with head and neck cancers were analyzed. The proportion of patients receiving radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy at nutritional risk was 61.3%, with 11.9% at risk before treatment and 49.4% developing risk during treatment. In multivariate analysis, nutritional risk before treatment was associated with T stage for the two groups. Risk was significantly higher in patients receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy during treatment for nasopharygeal carcinoma patients. The prognosis of pretreatment nutritional risk patients was worse than those becoming at risk during treatment and those without nutritional risk (3-year overall survival 62.9% vs 81.7% vs 80.6%, p=0.026; 3-year disease-free survival 64.8% vs 84.5% vs 84.4%, p=0.019).Conclusions: The incidence of nutritional risk is high in head and neck cancer patients receiving radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, especially during treatment. Pretreatment nutritional risk evaluated using the NRS 2002 can predict patient prognosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical features, treatment outcomes and prognostic factors of mucosal melanoma of the head and neck (MMHN) in patients who were treated at our institution.Materials and Methods: Between Jan. 1981 and Oct. 2015, 161 patients with non-metastatic MMHN were treated at our institution. The patients' clinical characteristics, treatment modalities, outcomes, prognostic factors, and failure patterns were retrospectively analysed.Results: With a median follow-up time of 74months, the 5-year overall survival rate (OS), local control rate (LC), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) were 44.4%, 59.4%, and 49.3%, respectively. Regarding the different treatment modalities, the 5-year OS was 50.0% in the surgery group and 43.1% in the surgery combined with radiotherapy group, while, the 5-year LC rate was 42.5% in the surgery group and 75.3% in the surgery combined with radiotherapy (p<0.001). According to the AJCC 7th edition staging system for MMHN, the 5-year OS for patients with stage III, stage IVA, and stage IVB MMHN were 65.2%, 33.1% and 14.3%, respectively (p<0.001). In the multivariate analysis, the T stage, neck lymph node involvement, and surgical margins were independent prognostic factors for OS; surgical margins and adjuvant radiotherapy were independent prognostic factors for LC.Conclusion: The addition of radiotherapy improves the local control rate of MMHN. T stage, neck lymph node status, and surgical margins are independent prognostic factors for the OS in patients with MMHN. The AJCC 7th edition staging system for MMHN appears to effectively stage this disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Objectives: This study aimed to explore the value of preoperative radiotherapy in the comprehensive treatment of locally advanced nasal cavity and paranasal sinus squamous cell carcinomas (LA-NPSCCs).Materials: This retrospective study included 140 patients with stage III-IVB NPSCCs treated with pre-/postoperative radiotherapy plus surgery. The complete resection rate, pathologic complete response (pCR) rate, and orbital content retention rate were calculated. The overall survival (OS), local control (LC), distance metastasis free survival (DMFS) and disease-free survival (DFS) between treatment groups were evaluated.Results: With a median follow-up of 92.3 months, the 5-year OS, LC, DMFS, and DFS of entire cohort were 62.0%, 65.5%, 85.4%, and 57.8%, respectively. The preoperative radiotherapy group achieved similar LC, DFS, DMFS, and OS rates compared to postoperative radiotherapy group, despite higher rates of stage IV and orbital content/apex invasion. The preoperative radiotherapy resulted in significantly improved complete resection rate (93.3% vs 38.0%, p < 0.001). In the preoperative radiotherapy group, one third of patients achieved pathologic complete response. The pCR subgroup achieved statistically higher 5-year OS, LC, DFS (p < 0.05), but similar 5-year DMFS (p > 0.05) compared to non-pCR subgroup. The actual orbital content retention rate in preoperative radiotherapy group was 85.7%, superior to 58.3% in postoperative radiotherapy group (p = 0.049).Conclusion: On the basis of multimodality therapy becoming standard paradigm for LA-NPSCCs, preoperative radiotherapy significantly improved complete resection rate and orbital content retention rate. Therefore, preoperative radiotherapy followed by surgery might be desirable for LA-NPSCCs, especially for those with organ preservation intention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
