Abstract
BACKGROUND Temporal bone resection (TBR) with or without neck dissection (ND) is performed for otologic malignancies with occult or clinical cervical lymph node metastases. To date, characterization of post-operative complications in single institution case series may be non-representative of real-world outcomes. Here, we used data from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) to comprehensively assess the complications encountered, their frequencies, and to identify underlying risk factors to improve future outcomes. METHODS The population was patients undergoing TBR and ND derived from the NIS between the years of 2017 and 2019. We utilized ICD-10 diagnosis codes to identify patients with post-operative complications, those discharged to non-home facilities (DNHF), and those with increased length of stay (LOS). Multivariable regression was performed to identify significant variables related to the above outcomes. RESULTS Ninety of 277 patients that underwent LTBR with ND had postoperative complications. Wound complications were the most frequent complication, occurring in 11 (4%) of patients, followed by CSF leak (n = 6; 2.2%), with acute respiratory failure being the most common medical complication (n = 4; 1.4%). Sixteen percent (45/277) were discharged to a facility besides home. Dementia (OR = 7.96; CI95 3.62-17.48), anemia (OR = 2.39; CI95 1.15-4.99), congestive heart failure (OR = 5.31; CI95 1.82-15.45), COPD (OR = 3.70; CI95 1.35-10.16), and history of prior stroke (OR = 8.50; CI95 1.55-46.68) increased the odds of DNHF. When evaluating LOS (median = 5 days, IQR = 1, 9), anemia (OR = 5.49; CI95 2.86-10.52), and Medicaid insurance (OR = 3.07; CI95 1.06-10.52) were found to increase the LOS. CONCLUSIONS The vast majority of patients undergoing LTBR with ND have no complications and are discharged within a week. Liver disease is a risk factor for medical complications and increased charges. Patients with dementia or a prior stroke are at risk for DNHF, and those with prior anemia are at risk for a wound complication. LAY SUMMARY This study identified factors related to worse post-operative outcomes in patients undergoing temporal bone resection and neck dissection. Although safe for most patients, an existing diagnosis of liver disease, stroke, dementia, and anemia specifically are at risk for developing negative outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3.

Systematic Review of Management and Survival Outcome of Parotid Cancers with Lateral Skull Base Invasion. Indian J Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 2023; 75:2713-2721. [PMID: 37636674 PMCID: PMC10447298 DOI: 10.1007/s12070-023-03787-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Lateral skull base involvement from parotid cancers is a rare condition and is considered a poor prognostic indicator. The aim of this study was to systematically review the literature of parotid tumors with temporal bone invasion to analyze the survival outcome. A systematic literature review was performed in August 2022, without time limits, and 289 patients affected by parotid gland cancers and lateral skull base involvement were included. The most common symptoms in parotid tumors at the onset were indolent mass, facial weakness, pain, and hearing loss; the chi-square value is 23.1063, with a statistically significance (p = < 0.000121). The five most common histologies were adenoid cystic carcinoma, acinic cell carcinoma, mucoepidermoid carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. The facial nerve function after surgery showed statistically significance (functional vs. non-functional; chi-square was 91.7698, p = < 0.00001). Mean follow-up was 36.2 months (range 0.3-192). At the last follow-up, more patients died of disease (DOD; 60/289, 21%) than other causes (DOOC; 5/289, 2%). There is a statistically significant correlation between patients died for tumor (DOD) and patients died for other causes (DOOC) (p = < 0.0001), suggesting that the lateral skull base invasion negatively impacts on survival. Basing on the results of our systematic review, lateral skull base involvement from parotid recurrent/advance tumors should be considered a poor prognostic factor, as the majority of patients die due to this condition. It also would be necessary to have "clear"works, with full data (demographic, clinical, surgical data), and with a longer follow up, in order to assess the best treatment modality of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lateral skull base is a complex area between the brain and the neck that is characterized by a large anatomic variability in narrow spaces and wide heterogeneity of tissues. The complexity of the anatomy makes it more difficult to accurately identify tumor spread and surgical planning is here particularly demanding. AIMS Oncological skull base surgery is conceived for malignant lesions originating in, secondarily infiltrating, or in close proximity to the lateral skull base. It is also conceived for selected aggressive or benign lesions of the parapharyngeal space and infratemporal fossa abutting the skull base, or crossing it from above downwards to the neck. This paper is focused on the role that oncological skull base surgery plays to resect tumors in this area. METHODS AND RESULTS Three main types of head and neck lesions can be identified as paradigms of the philosophy of oncological lateral skull base surgery, and are herein presented: (i) primary malignant tumors of the ear; (ii) advanced malignant parotid tumors; (iii) primary malignant or locally aggressive tumors of the infratemporal fossa-parapharyngeal space. The en-bloc lateral and subtotal temporal bone resections, the en-bloc temporo-parotid resection and the combined subtemporal-transcervical-transparotid resection are described, respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE Different histologies are found in the lateral skull base and adjacent areas, and each histology has its own pattern of growth and undetected spreading in a difficult-to-reach surgical area. The leading principle is to create a wide access through soft tissues and bone removal far enough from the tumor to obtain a complete resection, en-bloc radical resection in malignancies. The entity of dissection is obviously modulated on the tumor triad (histology, pattern of growth, extent) and is achieved through the en-bloc and combined approaches that are here described.

Abstract
Tumors of the ear can be benign or malignant. They can occur on the external ear or in the ear canal, the middle ear, and inner ear. Tumors in different areas of the ear behave differently. They are rare which causes several problems in diagnosis and appropriate treatment. The purpose of this study was to analyze retrospectively the patients with malignant neoplasm of the ear. The main objectives of this study were to study the clinicopathological presentation of ear and temporal bone malignancy and to study the management of different types of malignancy of ear and temporal bone. This study is conducted at our tertiary care cancer hospital from Feb 2015 to Jan 2020. This study includes 15 patients treated for malignancy of the external and middle ear. The entire patient was thoroughly examined for malignancy. Details ENT examination was done. History of smoking and tobacco chewing asked. The patient factors considered in this study were age, sex, diagnosis, treatment (surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy), complications, follow-up, and recurrence. This study includes [n = 15] patients. Due to a variety of malignant lesions of the ear and temporal bone they were classified into two groups, Superficial location lesions [n = 5] 3 of disease limited to pinna and 2 cases of primary of parotid origin involving pinna. Deep location involving external auditory meatus and middle ear [n = 12]. In this study of [n = 15] cases lowest age was 18 years. male and highest age was 75 years. male and most common age group was 56-65 years in which [n = 7] patients present. In this study we studied [n = 11] male patients and [n = 4] female patients. The most common symptom present was ear discharge [n = 8], the next common symptom was hard of hearing [n = 7]. A less common symptom was facial weakness [n = 3]. In sign, mastoid tenderness was commonest in [n = 5], and less common was facial palsy in [n = 3]. In our study of [n = 15] patients we did lateral temporal bone resection in [n = 5] patients, wide local excision of lesion in [n = 4] patients, lateral temporal bone resection with postero-lateral neck dissection with PMMC flap done in [n = 2] patients. In our study of [n = 15] cases of ear malignancy most common histopathology is squamous cell carcinoma [n = 12] cases, least were basal cell carcinoma [n = 1], melanoma [n = 1], and Rhabdomyosarcoma [n = 1]. Malignant tumors of the ear and temporal bone are rare. Neoplasm's of the external and middle ear constitutes a group of various histopathological and clinical tumors that differ in diagnostic difficulties, treatment, and prognosis. Surgery is the mainstay of treatment followed by reconstruction. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy play an adjuvant role in post-operative management in the high-risk category. Prognosis is worst as the tumor stage advances. And most of the cases diagnosis was often made in the advanced stage especially for middle ear tumors that diminished the possibility of effective treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine recurrence patterns in patients with head and neck cancers requiring facial nerve sacrifice and to determine the optimal management of the positive proximal facial nerve margin. STUDY DESIGN Case series with chart review. SETTING Tertiary care center. PATIENTS One hundred fifty-five patients with head and neck malignancies who underwent sacrifice of the facial nerve between March 1, 1999 and October 31, 2020. Demographics, preoperative facial nerve function, prior oncologic treatment, histologic type, operative details, adjuvant treatment, recurrence patterns, and overall survival were reviewed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Recurrence rates and recurrence location. RESULTS Thirteen patients (8%) had positive proximal margins on final pathologic evaluation. Six of 13 (46%) experienced disease recurrence. No disease recurred proximally along the facial nerve. The recurrence rate was 26% for negative proximal facial nerve margins. Segments of the facial nerve biopsied included: extratemporally (n = 78), at the stylomastoid foramen (36), mastoid segment (22), second genu (7), tympanic (6), geniculate (3), labyrinthine (1), and IAC (2). Median patient follow-up was 30.3 months. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that a conservative approach to a positive proximal facial nerve margin is optimal with respect to operative planning, patient morbidity, and disease recurrence patterns. Recurrence proximally along the facial nerve is an exceedingly rare event and the necessity of biopsy proximal to the geniculate ganglion, and in some cases even to the second genu, is called into question.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lateral skull base tumors often necessitate temporal bone resection (TBR), although clinical outcomes can be unfavorable. Factors influencing survival and recurrence after TBR for cutaneous and salivary malignancies were evaluated. METHODS Twenty-six TBR subjects were included. Survival and recurrence outcomes were estimated at 1, 2, and 5 years postresection. Prognostic factors were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox regression. RESULTS Two years postresection, the overall survival (OS), disease-specific survival (DSS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were 61%, 74%, and 49%, respectively, and 51%, 63%, and 45% at 5 years. On univariate analysis, preoperative facial nerve dysfunction and intraoperative nerve sacrifice worsened OS, DSS, and RFS. Prior surgery and adjuvant radiation independently predicted reduced OS, DSS, and RFS on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS Mortality is highest in the first 2 years following resection. Preoperative facial nerve dysfunction, facial nerve sacrifice, and prior radiation are negative predictors of survival and recurrence.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) on local tumour control in patients with locally advanced parotid gland tumours. The medical records of seven patients treated with radical parotidectomy combined with LTBR for locally advanced primary parotid tumour at the Otolaryngology Department of Dokuz Eylul University between January 1995 and December 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. Demographic variables, tumour characteristics, treatment properties, postoperative complications, follow-up durations and local, regional and distant recurrences were analysed. Before referral to our clinic, four patients had de novo primary parotid tumours, and three patients had a recurrence of primary parotid tumours. The histopathologic diagnoses were squamous cell carcinoma in two patients, and adenosquamous carcinoma, malignant myoepithelial carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma and spindle cell sarcoma in the other patients. During the follow-up period, one patient died due to postoperative pulmonary embolism in the first month, and four patients died due to distant metastasis without local or regional recurrences. LTBR combined with radical parotidectomy in locally advanced primary malignant parotid gland tumours is a feasible surgical technique for local tumour control. However, the most common cause of death in these cases is distant metastases, despite appropriate resection.

Abstract
Purpose Evaluation of the utility of the free anterolateral thigh flap reconstruction of the defects resulting from radical temporal bone resection in the management of lateral skull base malignancies in a single institution. Methods An analysis of 17 en bloc subtotal petrosectomies for removal of malignant tumours was performed. There were 12 squamous cell carcinomas, 4 basal cell carcinomas and 1 adenoid cystic carcinoma. The tumours were staged with the University of Pittsburgh TNM system. In all patients, the lateral temporal bone with the preservation of the petrous apex and carotid artery was performed. All patients had parotid gland resection. The post-resection defect was reconstructed with an ALT free flap. Results Tumour radical resection and defect reconstruction with an ALT flap was achieved in all patients without intraoperative complications. The transplants were harvested as fasciocutaneous flaps, 11 perfused by musculocutaneous and 6 by septocutaneous perforators. The ALT flaps had a mean pedicle length of 8 cm (6–12 cm), and the flap size ranged between 6 × 15 cm and 15 × 30 cm. The flaps were supplied by nine facial, five occipital and three maxillary arteries. Recipient-site veins included eight internal jugular, seven facial, one retromandibular and one external jugular vein. All arterial pedicles were anastomosed in an end-to-end manner. The veins were anastomosed with interrupted sutures and in 11 cases with Synovis-Coupler® devices. All the flap transfers were performed successfully. Three patients experienced postoperative complications. Conclusions The ALT flap proved to be effective for covering large temporal skull base defects resulting from the radical removal of temporal bone malignancies. The functional and cosmetic results were acceptable with a low complication rate.

Abstract
PURPOSE In this study we review our institution's experience and outcomes with temporal bone resection and parotidectomy in the treatment of advanced parotid malignancies. METHODS Patients undergoing lateral temporal bone resection and parotidectomy from 2007-2013 were identified in the EPIC electronic medical record. Primary tumor location, staging, surgical procedure, and patient demographic and outcome data were collected retrospectively. RESULTS Fifteen patients underwent combined temporal bone resection and parotidectomy for parotid malignancy. Carcinoma ex-pleomorphic and squamous cell carcinoma were the most common pathologies. Two year disease free survival was 40%. Distant metastases were the most common site of disease recurrence. Only nodal disease was predictive of reduced disease free survival, though pre-operative facial paralysis showed a trend towards significance. Margin status and operating for recurrent tumor did not influence outcome in our series. CONCLUSION Local and regional tumor controls are attainable with combined skull base approaches to advanced parotid malignancies. Unfortunately these cases have a high rate of distant recurrence despite negative margins and local control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We analyzed patients with advanced parotid malignancy requiring proximal facial nerve exposure undergoing mastoidectomy versus lateral temporal bone resection to determine differences in local and distant recurrence. STUDY DESIGN The study design is a case series with chart review. SETTING The setting is in Tertiary care practice in Fort Worth, Texas from January1998 to January 2014. SUBJECTS AND METHODS The study included 120 patients with advanced parotid malignancy, 82 males between 19 and 87 years, and 38 females between 26 and 83 years. Patients with no overt bone involvement were treated with parotidectomy and mastoidectomy for exposure of the proximal facial nerve, and patients with clinically suspected (radiographic imaging or clinical fixation) bone involvement were treated with parotidectomy and lateral temporal bone resection. Follow up ranged from a minimum of 18 months to 11 years following surgery. RESULTS Sixty patients were treated with mastoidectomy and 60 were treated with lateral temporal bone resection. In patients treated with mastoidectomy, 13 had local recurrence and 7 had distal recurrence. In patients treated with lateral temporal bone resection, 2 had local recurrence while 9 had distant recurrence. Statistical analysis revealed that patients treated with mastoidectomy developed local recurrence (p = 0.0022) more commonly than those treated with lateral temporal bone resection. There was no significant difference in distant recurrence between both groups (p = 0.5949). CONCLUSIONS Patients with advanced parotid malignancy should be treated aggressively with parotidectomy and lateral temporal bone resection regardless of bone involvement due to increased risk of local recurrence in those treated with mastoidectomy alone. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level of evidence is a 4 case series.

Abstract
Parotidectomy for parotid cancer includes management of primary salivary cancer, metastatic cancer to lymph nodes, and direct extension from surrounding structures or cutaneous malignancies. Preoperative evaluation should provide surgeons with enough information to plan a sound operation and adequately counsel patients. Facial nerve sacrifice is sometimes required; but in preoperative functioning nerves, function should be preserved. Although nerve involvement predicts poor outcome, survival of around 50% has been reported for primary parotid malignancy. Metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma is a high-grade aggressive histology whereby local control for palliation with extended parotidectomy can be achieved; however, overall survival remains poor.

Abstract
We herein present a review of the surgical approach of lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) in the treatment of 5 cases of head and neck cancers invading the jugular foramen between 2008 to 2013. The patients comprised 3 males and 2 females with ages ranging from 25 to 76 and observation times were between 13 and 22 months. In this study we reviewed the method of operation and treatment. Four patients are alive, but one patient died from the primary disease. Complications occurred including postoperative facial nerve palsy and hearing loss. Although the LTBR with jugular foramen approach can cause postoperative facial nerve palsy and hearing loss, this method would be recommended as a safe surgical procedure for its wide surgical field. We therefore propose that this LTBR technique is useful for patients with head and neck cancer extending to the jugular foramen.

Abstract
Adequacy of surgical resection decided by the margin status is important in attaining a good local control and better survival in Head and neck Cancers. Conventionally, a measured distance between the tumor edge and the cut edge of the specimen is taken as the margin. A margin more than 5 millimeter (mm) is considered clear, less than 5 mm is close and less than one mm is denoted as involved. The concept of this adequacy varies between the different sites and subsites in head and neck. The purpose of this paper is to review the current evidence that describes the adequacy of surgical margin status and their variability among the sites and sub-sites in the head and neck.
