Exp Biol Med (Maywood) 2023; 248:1785-1798. [PMID: 37845830 PMCID: PMC10792421 DOI: 10.1177/15353702231199475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Carotid body tumors (CBTs) are a rare type of paraganglioma, and surgical resection is the only effective treatment. Because of the proximity of CBTs to the carotid artery, jugular vein, and cranial nerve, surgery is extremely difficult, with high risks of hemorrhage and neurovascular injury. The Shamblin classification is used for CBT clinical evaluation; however, molecular mechanisms underlying classification differences remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate pathogenic mechanisms and molecular differences between CBT types. In Shamblin I, II, and III tumors, differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified using direct data-independent acquisition (DIA). DEPs were validated using immunohistochemistry. Proteomics profiling of three Shamblin subtypes differed significantly. Bioinformatics analysis showed that adrenomedullin signaling, protein kinase A signaling, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling, ephrin receptor signaling, gap junction signaling, interleukin (IL)-1 signaling, actin cytoskeleton signaling, endothelin-1 signaling, angiopoietin signaling, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling, hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) signaling, and IL-6 signaling pathways were significantly enriched. Furthermore, 60 DEPs changed significantly with tumor progression. Immunohistochemistry validated several important DEPs, including aldehyde oxidase 1 (AOX1), mediator complex subunit 22 (MED22), carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A), and heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1). To our knowledge, this is the first application of proteomics quantification in CBT. Our results will deepen the understanding of CBT-related pathogenesis and aid in identifying therapeutic targets for CBT treatment.

Front Oncol 2022; 12:872890. [PMID: 35480104 PMCID: PMC9035876 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.872890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective The objectives of this study were to prospectively 1) explore the characteristics and enhanced patterns of carotid body tumors (CBTs) at color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) and contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) qualitatively and quantitatively and 2) compare CDU and CEUS for their morphology and vascularity signature. Methods CDU and CEUS with Sonovue® were used to evaluate 25 CBT lesions. The comparison between these ultrasonic modalities included the size, Shamblin type, vascularity, and feeding vessels of the lesion areas. The time–intensity curve (TIC) analysis was used to obtain the dynamics of the contrast-enhancement features of CBTs. Results The TIC analysis presented a fast wash-in [wash-in time: 3.00 ± 1.10 s, mean ± SD] and slow wash-out [wash-out time: 58.79 ± 24.21 s, mean ± SD] pattern in the CBT lesions, with a high area under the curve (AUC) of 669.68 ± 143.46 mm2 (mean ± SD). In comparison with CDU, CEUS was superior in identifying Shamblin type I or III CBT lesions (χ2 = 17.389, p=0.002). It detected a significant difference in the AUC between moderate and marked vascularity groups (563.33 ± 102.63 vs. 707.22 ± 138.81, t=-2.311, p=0.031.), while CDU observed no significant difference between these two groups. Although CDU was more sensitive than CEUS in detecting feeding vessels (100% vs. 88%), CEUS better visualized the origins of feeding vessels (χ2 = 9.162, p=0.010). Conclusion CEUS can better investigate the Shamblin type and vascularity of CBT lesions than CDU. CBTs displayed a fast wash-in, slow wash-out pattern with high AUC in the TIC analysis in the CEUS mode. CDU is more sensitive in detecting feeding vessels than CEUS, while CEUS can better visualize the origins of feeding vessels.

Proposed modification to the Shamblin's classification of carotid body tumors: A single-center retrospective experience of 116 tumors. Eur J Surg Oncol 2021; 47:1953-1960. [PMID: 33775487 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2021.03.244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2020] [Revised: 03/07/2021] [Accepted: 03/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Carotid body tumors (CBTs) are rare head and neck neoplasms, we aimed to propose a modification to the Shamblin's classification of CBTs. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 105 patients (116 CBTs) operated at our institution from March 2013 to July 2020. CBTs were divided by a modified Shamblin's classification into five subtypes (type I-V) based on the radiographic features. Correlations between modified classification and intraoperative bleeding, internal carotid artery (ICA) bypass and postoperative neural complications, as main outcomes, as well as other outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS Surgeries for type V and type I CBTs had the most (median: 700 ml, IQR: 375-1575 ml) and least (median: 20 ml, IQR: 20-50 ml) bleeding, respectively. Intraoperatively, ICA bypass was needed in 41.7% (10/24) type V, 18.2% (8/44) type IV and 5.9% (1/17) type III lesions, but not in other subtypes (p = .001). Postoperatively, overall cranial nerve deficits (CND) were found most frequently in type V tumors (17/24, 70.8%) (p = .016). Permanent CND were found in 33.3% (8/24) type V and 4.5% (2/44) type IV lesions, but not in other subtypes (p = .001). Other outcomes including external carotid artery ligation, operation time, blood transfusion, postoperative intensive unit care and postoperative hospitalization also showed significant difference among different subtypes. Patients recovered uneventfully during a follow-up of 23.5 ± 16.2 months except for one ipsilateral recurrence at 42 months after surgery. CONCLUSIONS The modified classification was correlated with surgical outcomes of CBTs and will be helpful for making surgical plans.

Abstract
An arteriovenous fistula is an aberrant communication between an artery and a vein. Here is a case in which risk factors including multiple fistulae, dangerous location, and high-flow blood occurred simultaneously. The patient is a 13-year-old boy diagnosed with bilateral arteriovenous fistulae between the jugular vein and carotid artery separately, with cardiac dilatation and pulmonary artery hypertension. We performed right arteriovenous fistulae resection, ligated the involved small vessels, and tightened the internal jugular vein. The tiny left arteriovenous fistulae were treated with transarterial embolism. The blood flow bruit and swelling of his neck completely disappeared, with clear improvement of his life quality, the pulmonary artery pressure has dropped from 54 mmHg to 39 mmHg. Surgery is one of the main therapies of arteriovenous fistula currently, we need to make a balance between good effect and low risk, aiming at early treatment to avoid serious complications.
