Abstract
PURPOSE This study was designed to assess the efficacy and morbidity of the endoscopic endonasal approach for the treatment of sinonasal adenocarcinomas. METHODS This was a retrospective, multicenter study of nine French tertiary referral centers, including untreated patients. All patients were operated by an endoscopic approach. Tumors were classified according to the UICC 2002. Demographic, therapeutic, histological, morbidity data, and the course of the disease were recorded. Survival rates were obtained using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS A total of 159 patients were included with a mean age of 69 years. There were 19T1, 62T2 (1M1), 36T3 (1N1), 26T4a, and 16T4b (1N2a-1N2c). The mean duration of hospitalization was 4.4 days. The histologic outcomes showed that the olfactory cleft, the posterior and anterior ethmoid sinus, and the sphenoid, maxillary, and frontal sinuses were invaded in 95, 64, 55, 19, 7, and 3 % of cases, respectively. Histologic margins were positive in 17 % (1T1, 4T2, 3T3, 2T4a, and 8T4b). In total, 130 patients received adjuvant radiotherapy on the primary tumor site (58 Gy), 24 cases were not irradiated, and 5 refused treatment. The mean follow-up was 32.5 ± 24 months. The complication rate was 19 %: 6 epistaxis, 3 meningitis, 6 CSF leaks, 2 dacryocystitis, and 8 septoplasties. The recurrence rate was 17.6 % (28 cases) within 23 ± 21 months. Eleven patients underwent a second surgical procedure. Nine patients died of their disease (3T2, 2T3, 4T4b). The global and disease-specific, recurrence-free survival rate at 3 years was 74 and 84 % respectively. CONCLUSIONS The endoscopic approach seems to be efficient to remove sinonasal adenocarcinoma with low morbidity.

Abstract
PURPOSE Design a compact, ergonomic, and safe endoscope positioner dedicated to the sino-nasal tract, and the anterior and middle-stage skull base. METHODS A motion and force analysis of the surgeon's movement was performed on cadaver heads to gather objective data for specification purposes. An experimental comparative study was then performed with three different kinematics, again on cadaver heads, in order to define the best architecture satisfying the motion and force requirements. RESULTS We quantified the maximal forces applied on the endoscope when traversing the sino-nasal tract in order to evaluate the forces that the robot should be able to overcome. We also quantified the minimal forces that should not be exceeded in order to avoid damaging vital structures. We showed that the entrance point of the endoscope into the nostril could not be considered, as in laparoscopic surgery, as a fixed point but rather as a fixed region whose location and dimensions depend on the targeted sinus. CONCLUSION From the safety and ergonomic points of view, the best solution would be a co-manipulated standard 6-degree of freedom robot to which is attached a gimbal-like passive remote manipulator holding the endoscope.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some lateral cervical lymphadenopathies may lead to the discovery of papillary microcarcinomas (PMC) of the thyroid that are not radiologically apparent. This relatively rare clinical situation raises questions about the diagnostic approach to chronic cervical lymphadenopathy and the impact of lymph node metastasis on PMC prognosis. PURPOSE OF THE ARTICLE: To study the epidemiologic, clinical, and prognostic criteria of cases of lymphadenopathy that signaled PMC. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study of 167 consecutive cases of PMC compared with 13 cases where a cervical mass signaled other forms of PMC. RESULTS The mean age was 48.5 years, the ratio of men to women was 5:8, and the mean PMC size was 5.5mm. These data did not differently significantly from those of the other PMC cases. The preoperative imaging found fluid content in six cases, with microcalcifications in three cases. All cases were treated by modified radical neck dissection on the side with the lymphadenopathy and total thyroidectomy with central neck dissection. The lymphadenopathy included a ruptured capsule in five cases and was accompanied by central lymph node metastases in three cases. Thyroid capsule involvement was significantly more common in cases of PMC discovered due to lymphadenopathy than in other cases of PMC (69% versus 9.7%, respectively; p<0.001). The mean follow-up was 7.3 years. There were no deaths due to PMC signaled by lymphadenopathy. Two cases of lymph node recurrence after 8 and 10 years were controlled by another surgery and radioactive iodine treatment. CONCLUSION Any chronic cervical mass should suggest the possibility of thyroid origin, especially in cases with cystic content or microcalcifications in subjects with no particular risk factors. An ultrasound of the thyroid should be done, as well as a fine needle aspiration biopsy of the lymphadenopathy with a thyroglobulin assay. Treatment is the same as for any thyroid carcinoma, and results in a good oncological outcome, despite the possibility of lymph node recurrences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The tumour grading of primary parotid cancers (PPCs) remains controversial. METHODS A 20-year standardised single centre treatment has been assessed retrospectively. The histological review of 155 consecutively treated parotid malignancies identified 96 suitable cases for univariate and multivariate survival analyses. RESULTS Treatment involved total parotidectomy, neck dissection and post-operative radiotherapy in, respectively, 91.7%, 83.3% and 70.4% of cases. The 5-year overall survival, disease-specific and recurrence-free survival rates were 79.4%, 83.5% and 70.8%, respectively. Univariate analysis confirmed the classical prognostic factors, i.e. age>60 years, male gender, facial palsy, hardness of the tumour, clinical stage, tumour grade, facial nerve invasion and lymph node metastases. Multivariate analysis identified a three-grade classification just after the clinical stage as the most important prognostic factor. CONCLUSION This study identifies the prognostic significance of intermediate grade tumours.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the lack of accuracy in neck staging with the classical technique (i.e., neck dissection and routine histopathology) with the sentinel node (SN) biopsy in oral and oropharyngeal T1-T2N0 cancer. Study Design: Cross-sectional study with planned data collection. Setting: Tertiary center care. Subjects and Methods: In 50 consecutive patients, the pathological stage of sentinel node (pSN) was established after analyzing SN biopsies (n = 148) using serial sectioning and immunohistochemistry. Systematic selective neck dissection was performed. The pN stage was established with routine histopathologic analysis of both the non-SN (n = 1075) and the 148 SN biopsies. Results: The sensitivity and negative predictive value of pSN staging were 100 percent. Conversely, if one considers pSN staging procedure as the reference test for micro- and macro-metastasis diagnosis, the sensitivity of the classical pN staging procedure was 50 percent (9/1; 95% CI 26.9-73.1) and its negative predictive value was 78 percent (95% CI 61.9-88.8). Fifteen patients (30%) were upstaged, including nine cases from pN0 to pSN ≥ 1 and six cases from pN1 to pSN2. Two of the pN0-pSN1 upstaged patients died with relapsed neck disease. Conclusion: The SN biopsy technique appeared to be the best staging method in cN0 patients and provided evidence that routinely undiagnosed lymph node invasion may have clinical significance.

Abstract
Among primitive adenocarcinoma of nasal cavity and paranasal sinus, the 2005 WHO classification distinguishes two main categories: intestinal type adenocarcinoma (ITAC) and low-grade non-intestinal adenocarcinoma, entities with different clinical and epidemiological characteristics. Low-grade adenocarcinoma shows a respiratory type phenotype (CK20-/CK7+/CDX2-/villin-) and ITACs, an intestinal type profile (CK20+/CK7-/CDX2+/villin+). Because of histological, ultrastructural and phenotypical similarities between ITAC and colorectal adenocarcinomas, several studies have discussed a possible common pathway in carcinogenesis. But the review of literature shows conflicting results, suggesting different pathways of pathogenesis. Differential diagnoses of sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinoma are mainly respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartomas, inverted schneiderian papillomas, salivary glands-type carcinoma and more rarely metastasis of adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY The purpose of this study was to assess the vascularity of the platysma muscle by the branches of the facial artery, in order to determine the best means of harvesting a musculo-cutaneous flap while ensuring maximum vascular security. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ten platysma muscles were dissected on 4 fresh specimens and one formaldehyde-preserved specimen. The dissection was performed after injection of the facial artery in 6 cases, while 4 muscles were dissected without any previous injection. RESULTS The vascular supply of the platysma muscle comes essentially from the branches of the submental artery and from branches descending straight from the facial artery. Other collateral branches contribute to this vascularization, but their importance is minor. All these arteries reach the muscle, entering its visceral aspect, then proceed to the sternal notch in a radial axis. CONCLUSION The size of the flap has to be defined within a quadrilateral figure with its base formed by the mandibular edge and its apex by the inferior limit of the flap. It is essential to preserve the maximum possible muscular thickness, especially on the medial side of the flap. If the facial artery needs to be ligated, this has to be done as it enters the submandibular space in order to protect most of the collateral branches destined to the muscle. The vascularization is then taken back by the homo- and contro-lateral facial vascularisation in an inverted flow in the remaining segment of the facial artery.

Abstract
CONCLUSION Endoscopic surgical management is recommended as a viable treatment option for sinonasal papilloma, with comparable results to those treated by an external approach. An external approach is still indicated in cases where the papilloma is not accessible endoscopically, or where there is extrasinus invasion. Long-term follow-up is essential for recurrence detection. OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to highlight our experience with endoscopic surgery for the management of sinonasal papilloma. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study of all patients who underwent endoscopic surgery for the treatment of sinonasal papilloma over a 12 year period at the Gui de Chauliac Hospital, Montpellier, France. RESULTS A total of 55 patients were included in this study; 32 patients (58%) were treated exclusively by an endoscopic approach and 23 (42%) were treated by a combined approach. Minimal follow-up was 3 years. The overall recurrence rate was 7%. All recurrences occurred at the initial site and the average delay between surgery and recurrence was 30 months (14 months to 4 years).

Abstract
The antrochoanal polyp (Killian polyp) is an infrequent, benign neoplasm, which arises from the maxillary sinus to reach the ipsilateral choana. The treatment of this disease is essentially surgical, by means of a wide antrostomy. The aim of the study was to compare the results obtained on 23 consecutive cases of antrochoanal polyps endoscopically treated between February 1997 and January 2000 with those reported in the literature, with particular regard to the surgical technique adopted, the histological features, the patterns of its development and the clinical outcomes. The histology revealed in most of the cases a cystic aspect surrounded by edematous stroma. In all cases the polyp emerged from the middle meatus, mostly starting from the upper-lateral (zygomatic) wall of the antrum. All patients were endoscopically followed-up for an average period of 39 months (17-61). We observed two recurrences, both in pediatric cases who evidently underwent an incomplete surgical removal of antral mucosa at its inferior aspect, probably due to the fear of damaging the teeth buds. We did not observe any postsurgical complication. Our data indicate the endoscopic middle meatal antrostomy as the optimal approach, also for the revision cases and in children.

Abstract
PURPOSE The main goal of sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas is to limit neck dissections to pN+ cases only. However, intraoperative + diagnosis cannot be routinely done using the current gold standard, serial step sectioning with immunohistochemistry. Real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) is potentially compatible with intraoperative use, proving highly sensitive in detecting molecular markers. This study postoperatively assessed the accuracy of quantitative RT-PCR in staging patients from their SLN. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A combined analysis on the same SLN by serial step sectioning with immunohistochemistry and quantitative RT-PCR targeting cytokeratins 5, 14, and 17 was done in 18 consecutive patients with oral or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma and 10 control subjects. RESULTS From 71 lymph nodes examined, mRNA levels (KRT) were linked to metastasis size for the three cytokeratins studied (Pearson correlation coefficient, r = 0.89, 0.73, and 0.77 for KRT 5, 14, and 17 respectively; P < 0.05). Histopathology-positive SLNs (macro- and micrometastases) showed higher mRNA values than negative SLNs for KRT 17 (P < 10(-4)) and KRT 14 (P < 10(-2)). KRT 5 showed nonsignificant results. KRT 17 seemed to be the most accurate marker for the diagnosis of micrometastases of a size >450 mum. Smaller micrometastases and isolated tumor cells did not provide results above the background level. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis for KRT 17 identified a cutoff value where patient staging reached 100% specificity and sensitivity for macro- and micrometastases. CONCLUSION Quantitative RT-PCR for SLN staging in cN(0) patients with oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma seems to be a promising approach.

Abstract
Nasal packing is commonly used to control postoperative bleeding in patients undergoing endonasal surgical procedures. Bleeding and pain on packing removal are frequently reported. The principal objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of Algosteril to control post-operative nasal bleeding. The secondary objective was to assess nasal bleeding and pain on packing removal, and to evaluate the endoscopic appearance of nasal mucosa 9 days after the procedure. This open, multicenter, randomized, controlled study was conducted on 50 patients undergoing partial bilateral inferior turbinectomy, packed with Algosteril on one side versus Polyvinyl acetal tampon (Merocel) on the other side following a left/right randomization. Both nasal packs effectively prevented post-operative bleeding. However, bleeding on packing removal was statistically less frequent and less severe with Algosteril than with Polyvinyl acetal (p = 0.016). In addition, pain was statistically lower with Algosteril than with Polyvinyl acetal (p = 0.0001). A trend to a better healing of the wound on day 9 was observed with Algosteril, leading us to further investigations. Algosteril nasal packing is as effective as Polyvinyl acetal in preventing postoperative bleeding following partial inferior turbinate resection. Its removal, however, is less traumatic for the nasal mucosa and less painful for the patient, therefore improving patient's comfort.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Surgery of recurrent pleomorphic adenoma (RPA) is known to lead to a high facial nerve complication rate. The efficacy of the continuous facial nerve monitoring (CFNM) technique remains to be proven in RPA surgery. The goal was thus to evaluate facial nerve palsy rates and the recovery period after parotidectomy for RPA using CFNM by way of continuous electromyography and to compare these rates and the operation time with those of patients who had undergone surgery without facial nerve monitoring. DESIGN Cohort study. PATIENTS Forty-seven patients were referred for RPA (1981-2003). Among them, 32 (18 unmonitored and 14 monitored) patients displayed no preoperative facial palsy, and histologic analyses revealed evidence of recurrence. The operation time and the extent and duration of postoperative facial nerve palsy were examined in both groups (monitored vs. unmonitored). Both groups had a similar clinical appearance distribution. RESULTS Facial nerve paralysis was estimated using the House-Brackmann grading scale. CFNM reduced the intensity of facial nerve paralysis independently of the kind of surgery performed. The complete deficit rates were 0% for the monitored group and 5.6% for the unmonitored group. Postoperative facial nerve paralysis was significantly lower (P = .01) in the monitored group than in the unmonitored group. CFNM improved the duration of facial paralysis (P = .001) in the monitored group. The operation time was significantly lower in the monitored group than in the unmonitored group (P = .001). CONCLUSIONS Routine use of CFNM during RPA surgery improves the surgical outcome. The facial nerve deficit can be reduced, and the recovery of facial nerve function is faster.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conservation of laryngeal function is a key surgical objective in cases of limited recurrence after previously irradiated T1b or T2 glottic carcinoma. Only a few articles have mentioned the use of supracricoid partial laryngectomies (SCPL) to treat recurrent T1/T2 tumors that cannot be managed with vertical partial laryngectomy. OBJECTIVES To evaluate oncologic and functional results of SCPL in selected cases of T1/T2 glottic carcinoma recurrence after primary irradiation therapy. METHOD Between 1986 and 2000, 23 selected patients (T1b, 12 cases; T2, 11 cases) underwent SCPL as salvage treatment: cricohyoidepiglottopexy (CHEP) in 18 cases and cricohyodopexy (CHP) in 5 cases. RESULTS The mean cannulation time was 28 (14-90) days. The mean nasogastric feeding tube time for CHP and CHEP was 55 (28-96) days and 21 (9-45) days, respectively. Four (17.4%) patients had major swallowing recovery problems. Three patients died in the postoperative period, one of intercurrent disease and two because of aspiration pneumonia. Six (26.08%) patients relapsed and underwent total laryngectomy. Three were subsequently controlled. The T stage was correlated with the onset of a new recurrence (P = .0258). The surgical margins were not correlated with recurrence (P = .0741). At 3 and 5 years, the global survival rate was 82.9% and 69.04%. The success rate for oncologic control and oncologic control with organ preservation was 74% and 66.6%, respectively. CONCLUSION In selected cases of limited recurrence after radiation therapy for T1/T2 vocal cord carcinomas, SCPL can be an alternative to total laryngectomy when partial vertical surgery appears unsuitable.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia is a systemic autosomal dominant disorder involving blood vessels. The most common symptom is recurrent epistaxis. The treatments of these epistaxis are numerous but such treatments are often symptomatic and their effects are often not sustained. Some of these treatments may be complicated by visceral vascular malformations. The aim of this study is to propose a treatment plan for these patients with hierarchical organisation of therapeutic options taking into account of their previous therapy. METHOD H. Plauchu organized in Paris, december 2002 a meeting with any medical specialists of this disease. They have analysed variety of therapies that have been proposed for epistaxis control in Hereditary Haemorrhagic Télangiectasia. RESULTS Most common use packing of nasal fossa and then hyperselective embolization of the internal maxillary and facial arteries for severe epistaxis. For chronic epistaxis, best treatment use sclerotics products (Ethibloc) and laser. After discussion, primary embolization could be useful to reduce vascularization of nasal fossa. CONCLUSION Treatment of epistaxis in Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia could increase in few years. Use of an index card of for epistaxis in the disease of Rendu-Osler could help to find treatment of choice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sarcoidosis is a diffuse granulomatous inflammatory disorder of unknown aetiology. Involvement of the nasal sinuses has been reported only rarely. METHODS This multicentre prospective study was undertaken on patients suffering from histologically confirmed sarcoidosis between October 2001 and August 2002. It comprised a questionnaire for nasal symptoms, a nasal endoscopy and a CT scan of the nasal sinuses. RESULTS Among the 62 patients enrolled 38 reported at least one nasal sinus symptom. An abnormality of the CT scan was present in 70% of cases. None were specific for sarcoidosis. Rhinoscopy revealed a mucosal lesion in 11 cases. The presence of mucosal nodules on the turbinates was suggestive of sarcoidosis and was proven histologically in 4 cases (6.5%). In these 4 cases there were symptoms of nasal sinus involvement and extensive CT changes. CONCLUSIONS Involvement of the nasal sinuses is rare in the course of sarcoidosis. Anterior rhinoscopy allows diagnosis before the development of typical lesions and also the taking of guided biopsies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Involvement of paranasal sinuses has been suggested in allergic rhinitis but not clearly demonstrated. AIMS To investigate the relationship between intermittent allergic rhinitis and computerized tomography (CT). METHODS Twenty patients with intermittent rhinitis and sensitized to cypress pollens underwent unilateral nasal provocation tests (NPTs) using increasing concentrations of cypress pollens out of the pollen season. Sinus CT-scans were carried out just before a NPT and 24 h later. Nasal lavage was carried out just before a NPT, 30 min after a positive challenge and again 24 h later. Leucotriene C4/D4, intracellular adhesion molecule-1 and eosinophil cationic protein were measured in nasal secretions. RESULTS Thirteen patients (65%) showed an alteration in their CT-scans after allergen challenge. Ten of them showed sinus changes controlateral to their allergenic provocation. Radiological changes mainly affected the osteomeatal complex and the ethmoid sinuses. Pre-existing abnormalities (13 of 20 cases) mainly concerned the maxillary sinuses. There was no correlation between CT-scan abnormalities and levels of mediators released in nasal secretions. CONCLUSIONS We have shown that nasal allergen challenge can produce radiological changes in the paranasal sinuses. This mainly concerned the ethmoid sinuses.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To improve asthma control, the management of rhinosinusitis often leads the physician to perform sinonasal imaging and/or nasal endoscopy, but their respective contributions are still insufficiently understood. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the potential contribution of a symptoms questionnaire, sinus radiography (SR) and computed tomography (CT) scan to the diagnosis of nasal diseases in asthmatic patients when compared with ENT examination. METHODS A total of 124 patients completed a questionnaire on nasal symptoms administered by the chest physician. Then, they underwent ENT examination. On the same day, SR and CT scans were performed independently. RESULTS Patients (80.3%) had nasal symptoms during the month preceding the consultation. The ENT examination was normal in 8.1% (n = 10) and revealed rhinitis in 57.3% (n = 71), rhinosinusitis in 14.5% (n = 18) and nasal polyposis in 20.2% (n = 25). For rhinitis, the negative predictive value of bilateral nasal obstruction was 87.8%. Both SR and CT had low sensitivity and specificity. For rhinosinusitis, the negative predictive value of nasal symptoms varied from 85.4 to 95.2%. Sinus CT was at least as accurate as SR for the diagnosis of rhinosinusitis. In a multivariate analysis, only the CT scan (score > or =12) appeared to be significantly associated with the diagnosis of nasal polyposis. CONCLUSION In asthmatic patients, physicians need to enquire systematically about the existence of nasal symptoms by using this simple questionnaire which is sensitive for rhinitis, and has good negative predictive value for excluding rhinosinusitis and nasal polyposis.
