Abstract
Importance The tongue and oral floor represent the most involved subsite by oral cancer, and there are no reported systems to classify anteroposterior tumor extension with prognostic effect. In other cancers, the anterior vs posterior tumor extension is a relevant prognostic factor. Objective To establish whether anterior vs posterior tumor extension may represent a prognostic factor in oral tongue and floor squamous cell carcinoma (OTFSCC). Design, Setting, and Participants This was a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent surgery for OTFSCC from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2021, at 2 tertiary-level academic institutions in Italy (University of Padua and University of Brescia). Patients eligible for the study had histologically proven primary OTFSCC; underwent surgery-based, curative treatment; and had available preoperative contrast-enhanced imaging. Exposures Four anatomical lines were designed to assess tumor extension: (1) chin-palate line (CPL), (2) chin-basion line, (3) Stensen duct line, and (4) lingual septum line. Preoperative imaging was re-evaluated, and tumor extension was classified as either anterior or posterior according to the lines. Main Outcomes and Measures Overall survival and time to recurrence (TTR) were evaluated according to tumor extension. These outcomes were reported as 5-year survival rates with 95% CIs. Results Of the 133 patients included, 79 (59.4%) were male, and the mean (SD) age was 62.7 (15.4) years. The 5-year TTR difference was higher for posterior vs anterior OTFSCC classified according to CPL (21.0%; 95% CI, 8.3%-33.7%), Stensen duct line (15.5%; 95% CI, 1.0%-30.0%), and lingual septum line (17.2%; 95% CI, 2.2%-32.3%). Overall survival analysis showed similar results. At the multivariable analysis on TTR, N status (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 3.0; 95% CI, 1.2-7.1) and anteroposterior classification according to CPL (adjusted HR, 7.1; 95% CI, 0.9-54.6) were the variables associated with the highest adjusted HRs. Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study, OTFSCC with a posterior extension to the CPL was associated with a higher risk of recurrence and death. This analysis suggests that the poor prognosis conveyed by the posterior tumor extension is independent of other relevant prognosticators except for the burden of nodal disease. This estimate is not precise and does not allow for definitive clinically important conclusions; therefore, further prospective studies are necessary to confirm these data.

Abstract
Objective In the dysphagic patient, pharyngeal residues (PR) are associated with aspiration and poor quality of life. The assessment of PR using validated scales during flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) is crucial for rehabilitation. This study aims to validate and test the reliability of the Italian version of the Yale Pharyngeal Residue Severity Rating Scale (IT-YPRSRS). The effects of training and experience in FEES on the scale were also determined. Methods The original YPRSRS was translated into Italian according to standardised guidelines. Thirty FEES images were selected after consensus and proposed to 22 naive raters who were asked to assess the severity of PR in each image. Raters were divided into two subgroups by years of experience at FEES, and randomly by training. Construct validity, inter-rater, and intra-rater reliability were assessed by kappa statistics. Results IT-YPRSRS showed substantial to almost perfect agreement (kappa > 0.75) in validity and reliability for both the overall sample (660 ratings), and valleculae/pyriform sinus sites (330 ratings each). No significant differences emerged between groups considering years of experience, and variable differences were observed by training. Conclusions The IT-YPRSRS demonstrated excellent validity and reliability in identifying location and severity of PR.

Abstract
Chordomas are the rare malignant bone lesions derived from the embryonic notochord. They are slow-growing tumors with a locally aggressive behavior. The clival chordomas are extradural, exophytic, and lytic lesions centered on the clivus, and are managed differently from those arising elsewhere because of the emphasis on preserving the neurological function. The gold standard for therapy is the complete resection followed by radiation therapy for a better local control of the tumor. This case report concerns a 20-year old girl with an incidental diagnosis of the clival chordoma, which was first treated via an endoscopic anterior approach to remove the exophytic portion of the tumor. The adjuvant radiation therapy was not feasible because of the macroscopic intradural residual tumor being at the level of jugular foramen. The girl was referred to our institute for the removal of the intradural residual tumor via a petro-occipital trans-sigmoid (POTS) approach followed by adjuvant proton beam therapy. The choice of the surgical approach depends on the size of the tumor, its location, and its anatomical distribution, but should also be balanced against the morbidity, considering the patient's age, and the feasibility of postoperative rehabilitation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic role of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression and the tumor's immune microenvironment has yet to be investigated in the specific setting of adjuvant postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) for laryngeal carcinoma (LSCC). The main aim of this exploratory study was to investigate, also by cluster analysis, whether PD-L1 expression (in terms of combined positive score [CPS]), tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) correlated prognostically with response to PORT in a cohort of consecutive LSCC patients. METHODS PD-L1, TIL and TLS were assessed in 24 consecutive patients with LSCC who underwent PORT. Cluster analysis was used to classify cases on the strength of these parameters. RESULTS A CPS ≥ 1 was associated with a significantly lower recurrence rate (p = 0.033), and longer disease-free survival (DFS) (p = 0.012) than a CPS < 1. Two clusters of prognostic relevance emerged from our analysis. Cluster 1 was characterized by a mean CPS of 23.0 ± 37.9, a mean TIL count of 68.0 ± 16.4, and the presence of TLS in all cases. Cluster 2 featured a mean CPS of 3.1 ± 7.3, a mean TIL count of 23.9 ± 16.5, and no cases with TLS. Cluster 1 showed a trend towards a lower recurrence rate (p = 0.071) and longer DFS (p = 0.054) than cluster 2. CONCLUSIONS Judging from this preliminary investigation, assessing PD-L1 and immune microenvironment markers seems a promising approach for identifying patients at higher risk of LSCC recurrence after PORT, who might reasonably benefit from adjuvant postoperative chemo-RT, or immunotherapy.

Abstract
Background Cochlear implants (CIs) have been recognized as a safe and effective means for profound hearing loss rehabilitation in children and adults and recently their use has been extended to subjects over 65 years of age. The aim of this paper was to assess indices related to changes in the quality of life (QoL) in elderly CI recipients. Material/Methods A case-control paradigm was used to assess the effects of CIs on the QoL. Forty-two subjects were assigned to the Case group and 15 subjects to the Control group. All 57 subjects were affected by profound hearing loss and had received a CI. Audiological data were collected from both groups at: (i) 1 month pre-implantation [T1]; (ii) 1 day pre- implantation [T2]; (iii) 30 days post-implantation, with CI used in free field [T3]; and (iv) 12 months post-implantation, with CI used in a free field [T4]. The QoL was assessed via a Glasgow Benefit Inventory (GBI) questionnaire, adapted to otolaryngology. To compare subjects across different ages with varying degrees of speech development, a perception parameter was used from the Speech Perception Categories test developed by Geers and Moog. Results Hearing performance was considerably improved after CI. In relation to the hearing performance at time T1, statistically significant threshold gains were observed in both groups in the T3 and T4 observation windows. At time T4, a threshold gain of 70 dB HL in the Case group and a gain of 84 dB HL in the Control group were observed. With speech therapy rehabilitation, a perception level of 6 was reached by 80.0% of patients in the Case group and by 100% of patients in the Control group. In terms of QoL, both groups showed improved post-CI scores. Statistical differences were observed between the 2 groups, with the Control group outperforming the Case group in all but the social section. Conclusions Despite age-related changes in auditory system and prolonged hearing deprivation, CIs offer audiological and QoL benefits in the elderly.

Abstract
CONCLUSIONS The preliminary finding of significantly lower eosinophilic-type CRSwNP recurrence rates in patients with associated asthma or ASA intolerance treated post-operatively with local nasal and oral steroids warrants further investigation in larger, prospective series. OBJECTIVE A high recurrence rate after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) has been widely reported in patients with eosinophilic-type chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). This study compared the influence of two post-operative medical treatments - local nasal steroids alone vs local nasal and oral steroids - on the recurrence of eosinophilic-type CRSwNP. METHOD Between January 2009-December 2010, 32 patients with eosinophilic-type CRSwNP received local steroid nasal therapy after FESS (Group A); from January 2011 onwards, another 28 patients were treated post-operatively with the same nasal treatment plus two cycles a year of oral steroids (Group B). All patients in both groups had a follow-up of at least 36 months. RESULTS Groups A and B did not differ significantly in recurrence rate (31.25% vs 32.14%, p = 1) or disease-free interval (p = 0.91), but Group B patients who were asthmatic or ASA-intolerant had a significantly lower recurrence rate than Group A patients with asthma or ASA intolerance (p = 0.04 and p = 0.004, respectively).

Abstract
PURPOSE Despite improved surgical and medical therapies, recurrence remains a significant problem in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), given a recently-reported long-term revision rate of 15%-20%. In this prospective study uni- and multivariate statistical analyses were used to identify clinical, laboratory and conventional pathological parameters for pinpointing CRSwNP patients at higher risk of recurrence after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). MATERIALS AND METHODS The investigation concerned 179 consecutive patients undergoing FESS for CRSwNP, and 24 of them developed recurrent CRSwNP after FESS. RESULTS A univariate statistical model disclosed significant associations between recurrent CRSwNP and serum basophil counts (p=0.03) and percentages (p=0.02). The recurrence rate was higher for patients with eosinophilic-type CRSwNP (p=0.01). In a multivariate logistic model, eosinophilic-type CRSwNP (p=0.025) and serum basophil percentage (statistical trend, p=0.079) retained their independent prognostic significance in relation to CRSwNP recurrence. The discriminatory power of a three-variable panel (age <65 years, serum basophil percentage and eosinophilic type) featured an AUC (ROC) of 0.7028 (an acceptable discriminatory power according to the Hosmer-Lemeshow scale). CONCLUSIONS Although our panel achieved an acceptable discriminatory power for CRSwNP recurrence, other parameters (including biomarkers) capable of predicting outcome and orienting postoperative treatment decisions need to be investigated in CRSwNP.
