    Morphological Evaluation of Thyroid Cartilage Invasion in Early Glottic Tumors Involving the Anterior Commissure
    (2018) SAVA, Henrique Wendling; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio Aparecido; GAMEIRO, Gustavo Rosa; PFUETZENREITER, Elio Gilberto; ALMEIDA, Ricardo Camillo de; MATOS, Leandro Luongo; CERNEA, Claudio Roberto
    Introduction: The anterior commissure is an area of glottic cancer infiltration, even in early stages. Objective: To evaluate the invasion by tumors into the anterior commissure cartilage in surgical specimens of frontolateral laryngectomy. Methods: Forty-eight patients who had undergone frontolateral laryngectomy for T1b/T2 squamous cell carcinoma were included. Epidemiological and clinical aspects as well as morphological histopathological analysis were evaluated. Results: Of the 48 patients, 42 (87.5%) had T1b lesions and 6 (12.5%) had T2. Thirty-four cases (70.8%) showed healthy tissue between the tumor and the thyroid cartilage, 10 cases (20.8%) had a tumor in close proximity to the cartilage, and in 4 cases (8.3%) there was cartilage invasion. There was no major risk of adverse outcome in the groups with infiltration or tumor adjacent to the cartilage. Level of differentiation, mitotic index, nuclear irregularity, and the presence of nucleolus and tumor necrosis were not related to cartilage invasion. Conclusion: The infiltration of thyroid cartilage occurred in 8.3% of tumors and did not change the outcome in patients submitted to frontolateral laryngectomy. The morphological characteristics did not present any statistical significance. (C) 2018 S. Karger AG, Basel

    Implication of the New AJCC pT Classification of SCC of the Lip Comparing With Other Oral Subsites
    (2021) TOLEDO, Loic Monginet; OLIVEIRA, Adriana Santos de; PINHEIRO, Renan Aguera; LEITE, Ana Kober Nogueira; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza de; MOYSES, Raquel Ajub; KULCSAR, Marco Aurelio V.; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio Aparecido; KOWALSKI, Luiz Paulo; MATOS, Leandro Luongo
    Objective To determine the implication of the new AJCC staging system for pT classification in a cohort of patients with SCC of the lip mucosa and compare it to other oral cavity sites. Methods Retrospective cohort of 744 patients treated between 2002 and 2017, by the Head and Neck Surgery Department of the University of Sao Paulo. Results Of 95 lip patients, 42 had pT upstage (58.1% of pT1 to pT2-3 and 50% of pT2 to pT3). Similar DFS/OS observed for those pT1 maintained or upstaged to pT2-3, pT2 patients upstaged to pT3 presented worse OS (49.4% versus 92.3%, P = .032). The comparison between lip and other mouth topographies, denoted better prognosis for pT1-2, but not for pT3-4a. Lip tumors had lower DOI, rates of perineural/angiolymphatic invasion, nodal metastasis, recurrence, and death. Conclusion The inclusion of DOI to the new pT classification better stratifies patients with SCC of the lip mucosa upstaged to pT3 by assessing inferior OS. Level of Evidence 3 Laryngoscope, 2021

    The role of E-cadherin and β-catenin in laryngeal cancer
    (2018) NARDI, C. E.; DEDIVITIS, R. A.; ALMEIDA, R. C. de; MATOS, L. L. de; CERNEA, C. R.
    Epithelial cadherins with catenins form the E-cadherin-catenin complex that acts on cell-to-cell adhesion. The loss of these complex lead to the reduction or absence of epithelial cadherin expression in the cell membrane, cytoplasmic accumulation of β-catenin and its translocation to the nucleus, contributing to carcinogenic events. The objective of this study was to evaluate the expression of epithelial cadherin and β-catenin in patients with laryngeal tumor. A retrospective study of 52 patients with glottic or supraglottic squamous cell carcinoma was conducted and evaluated according to the tumor site, histological differentiation, TNM stage, survival analysis and compared with the immunohistochemical expression of epithelial cadherin and β-catenin. We observed statistically significant association between the epithelial cadherin expression reduction and supraglottic localization of the lesion, the presence of cervical metastasis, poorly differentiated tumors and locally advanced tumors when in glottic topography. Related to the expression of β-catenin, statistical significance was also found to the presence of cervical metastasis and tumor of low differentiation with the decreased expression of this marker. Regarding survival analysis, the low expression of β-catenin is related to worse overall survival and the reduction of expression of both markers to worse disease-free survival. We concluded that the reduction in expression of the markers studied leads to a prognostic impact as they are related to tumors with greater local aggressiveness and presence of cervical metastasis. © Nardi et al.

    Comparison between magnetic resonance and computed tomography in detecting mandibular invasion in oral cancer: A systematic review and diagnostic meta-analysis MRI x CT in mandibular invasion
    (2018) BRANDAO NETO, Jose de Souza; AIRES, Felipe Toyama; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio Aparecido; MATOS, Leandro Luongo; CERNEA, Claudio Roberto
    Background: Suspicion of mandibular invasion directly influences perioperative strategy, requiring marginal or segmental mandibulectomy, or reconstruction in some cases. This has a considerable impact on outcome and quality of life. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of magnetic resonance and computed tomography in the prediction of mandibular invasion in patients with oral cavity cancer. Method: A systematic review was conducted, including diagnostic studies comparing magnetic resonance imaging with computed tomography in the prediction of bone invasion. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative likelihood values and summary receiver operating characteristic (sROC) curves were calculated. Results: The electronic and manual search identified 346 articles. Of these, 11 studies were included in the systematic review for a total of 477 patients. The sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative likelihood values for MRI were 78%, 86%, 5.29 and 0.23, respectively. For CT, they were 76%, 89%, 6.00 and 0.28, respectively. The sROC curves for MRI and CT were 82.3% and 82.5%, respectively. Conclusion: No superiority was observed between the diagnostic methods regarding mandibular invasion detection.

    Prognostic Value of Hematological Parameters in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
    (2023) TREVISANI, Lorenzo Fernandes Moca; KULCSAR, Isabelle Fernandes; KULCSAR, Marco Aurelio Vamondes; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio Aparecido; KOWALSKI, Luiz Paulo; MATOS, Leandro Luongo
    Introduction: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains a significant public health concern. The variables utilized to determine appropriate treatment for this disease also represent its most unfavorable prognostic factors, with these parameters solely determined by the neoplasm and its behavior. However, a lack of well-established indices is evident in the literature that specifically relate to the patient and indicate a worse prognosis. Objective: To assess the prognostic impact of hematological indices in patients with OSCC. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) who underwent curative-intent treatment. Treatment encompassed surgery, followed by adjuvant therapy, as necessary. Laboratory tests were conducted immediately prior to surgery, and demographic information was obtained from medical records. Results: The cohort comprised 600 patients, with 73.5% being male subjects. Adjuvant treatment was recommended for 60.3% of patients. Throughout the follow-up period, 48.8% of participants died. Univariate analysis indicated that perineural invasion, angiolymphatic invasion, pT4 tumors, lymph node metastases, extranodal extravasation, RDW > 14.3%, NLR (neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio) > 3.38, PLR (platelet-lymphocyte ratio) > 167.3, and SII (systemic inflammatory/immune response index) > 416.1 were factors associated with increased mortality. These threshold values were established through ROC curve analysis. In the multivariate analysis, angiolymphatic invasion (HR = 1.43; 95% CI: 1.076-1.925; p = 0.014), pT4a/b tumors (HR = 1.761; 95% CI: 1.327-2.337; p < 0.001), extranodal extravasation (HR = 1.420; 95% CI: 1.047-1.926; p = 0.024), and RDW (HR = 1.541; 95% CI: 1.153-2.056; p = 0.003) were identified as independent risk factors for decreased overall survival. Conclusions: RDW > 14.3% was proven to be a reliable parameter for assessing overall survival in patients with OSCC. Further studies are required to evaluate the clinical applicability of other hematological indices.

    Effectiveness of harmonic scalpel in patients submitted to total thyroidectomy: systematic review with meta-analysis
    (2018) AIRES, Felipe Toyama; MATOS, Leandro Luongo de; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio Aparecido; CERNEA, Claudio Roberto
    OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the harmonic scalpel compared to the conventional technique in patients submitted to total thyroidectomy. METHOD: This is a systematic review with inclusion of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared both techniques. An electronic search was carried out in the Medline and Lilacs databases until June 2017. The outcomes analysed were operation time, intraoperative bleeding, surgical morbidity, and costs. RESULTS: Data from 31 primary studies were included. The use of the harmonic scalpel correlates to a shorter operation time (p < 0.001) and a lower volume of intraoperative bleeding (p < 0.001). There were no differences in the risk of transient (p = 0.53) and permanent (p = 0.70) hypocalcaemia, transient (p = 0.61) and permanent (p = 0.50) dysfunctions of the inferior laryngeal nerve and hematoma (p = 0.14). CONCLUSION: Total thyroidectomy using a harmonic scalpel is effective and safe compared to the conventional technique.

    External validation of the AJCC Cancer Staging Manual, 8th edition, in an independent cohort of oral cancer patients
    (2017) MATOS, Leandro Luongo; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio Aparecido; KULCSAR, Marco Aurelio Vamondes; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza de; ALVES, Venancio Avancini F.; CERNEA, Claudio Roberto
    Objectives: To evaluate the new American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) cancer staging manual (8th edition) in an independent cohort of patients surgically treated for oral squamous cell carcinoma in order to determine whether the upstaging of pT and pN classification was indicative of a worse prognosis. Methods: A cohort of 298 patients was analyzed retrospectively. Results: Of these patients, 22.8% received an upstaging when the depth of invasion was included into the pT classification. Similarly, 29.2% of them were upstaged when extracapsular extension was added to pN classification. Twenty-eight of 68 patients (41.2%) that received an upstaging of pT classification died, and 23 (33.8%) experienced disease recurrence compared to 98/229 (42.8%) and 68/229 (29.7%), respectively, for those with the same pT during follow-up. With regard to pN classification, 70.6% of upstaged patients (60/85) died, and 50.6% (43/85) developed recurrence of the disease compared to 63/205 (30.7%) and 42/205 (20.5%), respectively, for those with the same pN during follow-up. Patients who were upstaged in pT classification presented a worse DFS (51.1% versus 80.4%, P = 0.007) and OS (31.5% versus 58.6%, P = 0.017). Similarly, those that were upstaged in pN classification presented a worse DFS (17.1% versus 61.2%, P = 0.001) and OS (8.5% versus 37.9%, P < 0.001). Conclusion: The new AJCC cancer staging manual (8th edition) allows a better stratification of oral SCC patients. By including the depth of invasion to the pT classification and extranodal extension to the pN classification, a worse disease-free and overall survival was assessed for these patients.

    (2017) CERNEA, Claudio; BRANDAO, Lenine G.; HOJAIJ, Flavio C.; CARLUCCI, Dorival De; VANDERLEI, Felipe; GOTODA, Renato; LEITE, Ana K.; KULCSAR, Marco A. V.; MATOS, Leandro L.; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio A.; ARAUJO-FILHO, Vergilius J. F.; TAVARES, Marcos R.
    Introduction: Thyroid cancer is the most frequent endocrine neoplasm, and its incidence has been consistently rising during the last decades. Surgical treatment is the choice, but the complications can be truly devastating. Methods: The objective of this article is to present some practical tips to reduce the complication rate in thyroid surgery. Results: The more frequent complications during a thyroidectomy are mentioned, as well as practical tips to try to prevent them: acute airway compression, nerve injuries (both inferior laryngeal and external branch of the superior laryngeal nerves), and hypoparathyroidism. Conclusion: The prevention of complications during a thyroidectomy is imperative. The only way that the surgeon can assure the safety is to strictly adhere to technical principles, with diligent hemostasis, thorough anatomical knowledge, and gentle handling of the anatomic structures adjacent to the thyroid gland.

    Nutritional and immunological parameters as prognostic factors in patients with advanced oral cancer
    (2022) TREVISANI, Lorenzo Fernandes Moça; KULCSAR, Isabelle Fernandes; LEITE, Ana Kober Nogueira; KULCSAR, Marco Aurélio Vamondes; LIMA, Graziele Aparecida Simões; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio Aparecido; KOWALSKI, Luiz Paulo; MATOS, Leandro Luongo
    Abstract Objective: The aim of the present study was to analyze the prognostic relationship of weight loss and preoperative hematological indexes in patients surgically treated for pT4a squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity. Methods: A retrospective cohort study. Results: Percent weight loss greater than 10% was identified in 49 patients (28.2%), and any weight loss in relation to the usual weight occurred in 140 patients (78.7%). Percent weight loss greater than 10% (HR = 1.679), Red cell distribution width (RDW) values greater than 14.3% (HR = 2.210) and extracapsular spread (HR = 1.677) were independent variables associated with risk of death. Conclusion: Patients with advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity present significant weight loss and as significantly immunocompromised. Increased values of RDW and higher percentages of weight loss in relation to the individual’s usual weight, together with extracapsular spread of metastatic lymph nodes, were risk factors for lower survival, regardless of other clinical and anatomopathological characteristics.
