    Delayed postoperative radiation therapy in local control of squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue and floor of the mouth
    (2014) AMAR, Ali; CHEDID, Helma Maria; CURIONI, Otávio Alberto; DEDIVITIS, Rogério Aparecido; RAPOPORT, Abrão; CERNEA, Claudio Roberto; BRANDÃO, Lenine Garcia
    Objective To evaluate the effect of time between surgery and postoperative radiation therapy on local recurrence of squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue and floor of the mouth. Methods A total of 154 patients treated between 1996 and 2007 were selected considering local recurrence rate and time of the adjuvant radiotherapy. Results Local recurrence was diagnosed in 54 (35%) patients. Radiation therapy reduced the rate of local recurrences, although with no statistical significance. The time between surgery and initiation of postoperative radiotherapy did not significantly influence the risk of local recurrence in patients referred to adjuvant treatment (p=0.49). Conclusion In the presence of risk factors for local recurrence, a short delay in starting the adjuvant radiation therapy does not contraindicate its performance.

    Cervical metastasis on level IV in laryngeal cancer
    (2014) ARAUJO NETO, V. J. Furtado De; CERNEA, C. R.; DEDIVITIS, R. Aparecido; PALAZZO, J. Fabiano; BRANDAO, L. Garcia
    The presence of cervical metastasis has substantial negative impact on survival of patients with laryngeal cancer. Bilateral elective selective neck dissection of levels II, II and IV is usually the chosen approach in these patients. However, there is significant morbidity associated with level IV dissection, such as phrenic nerve injury and lymphatic fistula. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the frequency of metastatic nodes in level IV in clinically T3/T4N0 patients with laryngeal cancer. The pathological reports of 77 patients with clinically T3/T4N0 laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma were reviewed. Patients underwent bilateral lateral neck dissection from January 2007 to November 2012. The surgical specimens were subdivided in levels before evaluation. There were 12 patients with neck metastasis (15.58%). In 3 cases (3.89%), there were metastatic lymph nodes in level IV, all T4 and with ipsilateral metastasis. In conclusion, the incidence of level IV metastasis was 3.89%, an in all patients was staged as T4.

    Efficacy of stapler pharyngeal closure after total laryngectomy: A systematic review
    (2014) AIRES, Felipe T.; DEDIVITIS, Rogerio A.; CASTRO, Mario Augusto F.; BERNARDO, Wanderley Marques; CERNEA, Claudio Roberto; BRANDAO, Lenine Garcia
    Background Some primary studies compare manual and mechanical pharyngeal closures after total laryngectomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the advantages of the mechanical suture in pharyngeal closure. Methods The literature survey included research in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and LILACS. The intervention analyzed was stapler-assisted pharyngeal closure, whereas the control group was manual suture pharyngeal closure. Results The survey resulted in 319 studies. However, 4 studies were selected (417 patients). In the group of patients in whom the stapler was used, the incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistula was 8.7%, whereas in the other, it was 22.9%, with an absolute risk reduction of 15% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.02-0.28; p = .02; I-2 = 66%). Regarding the surgical time, the average difference was 80 minutes in favor of the stapler group (95% CI, 23.16-136.58 minutes; p < .006). Conclusion The difference for starting oral feeding was 8 days in favor of the mechanical suture (95% CI, 4.01-11.73 days; p < .001). Patients who underwent mechanical suture had a shorter hospitalization period. (c) 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck 36: 739-742, 2014

    Stapler suture of the pharynx after total laryngectomy
    (2014) DEDIVITIS, R. A.; AIRES, F. T.; PFUETZENREITER JR., E. G.; CASTRO, M. A. F.; GUIMARAES, A. V.
    The use of a stapler for pharyngeal closure during total laryngectomy was first described in 1971. It provides rapid watertight closure without surgical field contamination. The objective of our study was to compare the incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistula after total laryngectomy with manual and mechanical closures of the pharynx. This was a non-randomised, prospective clinical study conducted at two tertiary medical centres from 1996 to 2011 including consecutive patients with laryngeal tumours who underwent total laryngectomy. We compared the incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistula between two groups of patients: in 20 patients, 75 mm linear stapler closure was applied, whereas in 67 patients a manual suture was used. Clinical data were compared between groups. The groups were statistically similar in terms of gender, age, diabetes mellitus, smoking and alcohol consumption and tumour site. The group of patients who underwent stapler-assisted pharyngeal closure had a higher number of patients with previous tracheotomy (p < 0.001) and previous chemoradiation (p < 0.001). The incidence of pharyngocutaneous fistula was 30% in the mechanical closure group and 20.9% in the manual suture group (p = 0.42). In conclusion the use of the stapler does not increase the rate of fistulae.
