Secretory carcinoma is a salivary gland neoplasm first described as a mammary analogue secretory carcinoma by Skalova et al. in 2010 and redesignated as a secretory carcinoma in the 2017 World Health Organization Classification of Head and Neck Tumors. Secretory carcinoma diagnosis is reliant on specific cytological and histological findings and the detection of an ETV6-NTRK3 fusion gene. Here, we examined the clinical and cytopathological features of four cases of secretory carcinoma occurring in three males and a female, aged between 39 and 74 years. All four tumors involved the parotid gland, and were found to have the ETV6-NTRK3 fusion gene. Fine-needle aspiration-based cytology smears of all tumors displayed papillary and/or dendritic pattern clusters, some of which were associated with blood vessels. The neoplastic cells displayed enlarged nuclei with fine chromatin and small, distinct, single nucleoli. Furthermore, several neoplastic cells with a characteristic vacuolated cytoplasm were identified in each specimen. Giemsa staining revealed cytoplasmic vacuolation, intracytoplasmic metachromatic secretions and/or various sized metachromatic granules, and a background of metachromatic mucin in all four specimens. Given this, we conclude that these cytological findings, especially those of the Giemsa staining, might be helpful in the diagnosis of secretory carcinoma.

The long-term changes in tissues implanted in the oral cavity and pharynx after head and neck reconstruction have not been fully evaluated. This study aimed to clarify the morphological changes, long-term durability, and potential for secondary carcinogenesis in such tissues. In our single-center study, the rough morphological changes in 54 cases of intraoral and pharyngeal skin and mucosal flaps were evaluated more than 10 years after flap transfer. In addition, the literature on the development of second carcinomas from skin flaps was reviewed. The mean follow-up period for transferred flaps was 148 months. The reconstruction areas and the probability of morphological changes were significantly correlated (p=0.006), especially in cases with tongue, lower gingiva, and buccal mucosal reconstruction. Free jejunal flap surfaces were well maintained, whereas tubed skin flaps showed severe morphological changes in cases with pharyngeal reconstruction. None of the flaps in our series developed second primary carcinomas. Skin flaps generally had good durability for > 10 years in intraoral environments, while mucosal flaps had better durability for pharyngeal reconstruction. Second squamous carcinomas arising from skin flaps are extremely rare; however, surgeons should take this possibility into consideration and conduct meticulous and long-term follow-up.

PURPOSE: Immune checkpoint proteins programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) are important therapeutic targets for head and neck cancer. This large-scale case study aimed to analyze tongue squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) and evaluate the correlation between PD-L1 expression and clinical prognosis. So far, this study is the largest case study on PD-L1 expression in tongue SCCs. METHODS: This is a case-control study that analyzed 121 tongue SCCs. Paraffin-embedded sections and clinical data were obtained retrospectively and immunohistochemistry with PD-L1 was performed. RESULTS: 11.6% contained ≥ 50% of PD-L1-positive cells, 57.1% of these cases had a poor prognosis with nodal metastasis. Among cases of T1/2 primary lesions with nodal metastasis, cases of high PD-L1 expression had a significantly shorter disease-free survival than cases of no PD-L1 expression (p = 0.018). The hazard ratio for high PD-L1 expression was 3.21 (95 per cent CI, 1.26-8.72) compared with no PD-L1 expression after adjusting for other factors. CONCLUSIONS: These data indicate that PD-L1 upregulation in tongue SCCs is associated with a more advanced stage and shorter disease-free survival. PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors might hence constitute potential adjuvant therapy for tongue SCCs with PD-L1 upregulation.

OBJECTIVES: Sialolipoma has been classified as a benign soft tissue lesion in the 2017 World Health Organization classification of head and neck tumors. To our knowledge, only one case of laryngeal sialolipoma has been reported in the English literature. We conducted a retrospective study to identify clinical characteristics of supraglottic sialolipoma-like lesion and differentiate it from other supraglottic subepithelial masses. METHODS: Medical records of 16 patients with supraglottic subepithelial benign mass lesions who underwent histological evaluation between 2003 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Sialolipoma-like lesion was defined as a local finding of a well-circumscribed gross mass with pathological presence of salivary gland-like parenchymal lobules with evenly interspersed adipose tissue. RESULTS: Eight patients showed histological positivity for sialolipoma-like lesion, 3 for amyloidosis, 2 for hemangioma, and 1 each for cyst, lymphoid hyperplasia, and chondrometaplasia. Sialolipoma-like lesion tended to be predominant among men; those affected had a mean age of 52.8 (range, 39-74) years. By contrast, among patients with amyloidosis, the ratio of men to women was 1:2 (100% vs. 33%; p = 0.055). Fiberscopic examination of all patients with sialolipoma-like lesions identified well-circumscribed, yellowish masses, closely resembling local amyloidosis findings. Sialolipoma-like lesion was associated with a significantly higher body-mass index (BMI; 27.4 ± 2.8 kg/m2) than amyloidosis (21.6 ± 1.4 kg/m2; p = 0.014). The transoral approach was used for lesion resection in all patients with sialolipoma-like lesion. No patient experienced postoperative recurrence. CONCLUSION: Laryngeal sialolipoma-like lesion might be more prevalent than was previously reported, and histological examination is important to differentiate it from amyloidosis. Supraglottic sialolipoma-like lesion must be differentially diagnosed in patients with high BMI presenting with well-circumscribed, yellowish supraglottic masses.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

We describe the case of a 51-year-old woman with immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) diagnosed using lip biopsy. She reported having bilateral submandibular nodules for a month. Magnetic resonance imaging showed diffuse swelling in the bilateral submandibular glands (SMGs), suggesting inflammatory changes. Laboratory data revealed an elevated level of serum IgG4. Fine needle aspiration cytology of the SMG showed a considerable number of lymphocytes with degeneration but did not demonstrate specific findings for a definitive diagnosis of IgG4-RD. Lip biopsy was performed, and a biopsy specimen from the labial salivary gland showed abundant lymphoplasmacytic infiltration with a large number of IgG4-positive cells. The patient was diagnosed with IgG4-RD based on histological and laboratory findings. Findings of further examinations revealed that the patient had autoimmune pancreatitis, confirming our diagnosis. Four months after prednisolone administration, improvement of the submandibular and pancreatic lesions was observed. One year after the initial presentation, the serum IgG4 level was normalized. In cases of IgG4-RD with salivary gland involvement, lip biopsy might be one of the options for the histological diagnosis of IgG4-RD.

OBJECTIVE: Since 2010, we have mainly performed surgical treatment following radiotherapy and concomitant intraarterial cisplatin (RADPLAT) for locally advanced maxillary sinus cancer (MSC). The present study investigated treatment results and pathological evaluations following RADPLAT for MSC. METHODS: Pathological response to RADPLAT was evaluated using surgical specimens. Pathological response was graded in accordance with the classification method that Shimosato reported in 1964, as grade V (no tumor cells remain in any of section), grade IV, III, II, I, and 0. Five-year overall and disease-specific survival rates were estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods. Univariate analyses of correlations between recurrence of MSC and other clinicopathological parameters were evaluated using the chi-square or Fisher's exact tests. RESULT: 19 patients were enrolled in this study, 5 patients showed T3 disease and 14 had T4 disease. One patient demonstrated local recurrence and 3 patients experienced distant metastasis. The 5-year overall survival rate was 67.1% (T3, 50.0%; T4, 69.6%), and the 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 81.9% (T3, 100%; T4, 76.0%). Histological response was categorized as grade V in 9 cases. No significant risk factors for residual cancer were identified. CONCLUSION: Our study suggested that RADPLAT not only has a low risk of side effects, but also could represent an effective procedure for locally advanced MSC by pathological evaluation. Increasing the therapeutic intensity of RADPLAT might provide an effective modality to avoid highly invasive surgery.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

Background: Subglottic cancer (SGC) is extremely rare, as most laryngeal cancers are localized to the glottic region. Accordingly, the clinical characteristics of SGC have not been well characterized.Objectives: In the current study, SGCs were clinically evaluated, and the outcomes of radiotherapy (RT) in patients with stage II SGC were assessed.Materials and Methods: Medical data derived from 11 patients with SGC, who were treated at our hospital between 1995 and 2019, were retrospectively reviewed.Results: In our department SGC accounted for 3.9% of the 280 laryngeal cancer patients treated during the study period. At the time of SGC diagnosis, 9 (81.8%) had stage II cancer, 1 had stage III cancer, and 1 had stage IV cancer. Stage II SGC patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) showed a significantly higher local control rate (p = .026) and laryngeal dysfunction free rate (p = .026) than those treated with RT alone. Salvage surgery, performed in 4 patients whose disease was not locally controlled with CCRT/RT, was successful in 3 patients.Conclusion: As a treatment strategy for stage II SGC, CCRT is an acceptable initial treatment for laryngeal function and preservation while salvage surgery is effective for recurrence after CCRT/RT treatment.

BACKGROUND: Metastasis-associated in colon cancer 1 (MACC1) has been reported to be an independent indicator of poor prognoses in some kinds of cancer due to disease metastasis or recurrence. We investigated the correlation between MACC1 expression and the prognosis of glottic cancer. METHODS: Paraffin-embedded, early-stage (I or II) glottic cancer specimens (n = 52) were immunohistochemically analyzed to explore MACC1 expression. The clinical records associated with each case were also examined. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and between-group RFS differences were assessed using the log-rank test. The multivariate analyses were evaluated using the Cox's proportional-hazard model. RESULTS: Patients were treated with only radiotherapy (RT) (n = 37, including 18 with T1 disease and 19 with T2 disease), or with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) (n = 15, including 1 with T1 disease and 14 with T2 disease). Eleven patients demonstrated local recurrence and two patients experienced cervical lymph node recurrence. Tumor specimens were MACC1-positive in 9 of the 13 (69.2%) patients with local or neck recurrence, and 7 of the 11 (63.6%) patients with local recurrence. The RFS rate of patients who were treated with only RT was significantly lower than that of patients who were treated with CRT (P = 0.0243). The RFS rate was significantly lower in cases with MACC1 expression than in those without MACC1 expression (P = 0.0003). Multivariate analysis revealed that MACC1 expression was an independent risk factor of local recurrence (P = 0.0016). CONCLUSION: MACC1 is an independent indicator of recurrence related to RFS in early-stage glottic cancer.

Cross-linking of antigen-specific IgE bound to the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) on the surface of mast cells with multivalent antigens results in the release of mediators and development of type 2 inflammation. FcεRI expression and IgE synthesis are, therefore, critical for type 2 inflammatory disease development. In an attempt to clarify the relationship between eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS) and mast cell infiltration, we analyzed mast cell infiltration at lesion sites and determined its clinical significance. Mast cells are positive for c-kit, and IgE in uncinated tissues (UT) and nasal polyps (NP) were examined by immunohistochemistry. The number of positive cells and clinicopathological factors were analyzed. Patients with ECRS exhibited high levels of total IgE serum levels and elevated peripheral blood eosinophil ratios. As a result, the number of mast cells with membranes positive for c-kit and IgE increased significantly in lesions forming NP. Therefore, we classified IgE-positive mast cells into two groups: membrane IgE-positive cells and cytoplasmic IgE-positive cells. The amount of membrane IgE-positive mast cells was significantly increased in moderate ECRS. A positive correlation was found between the membrane IgE-positive cells and the radiological severity score, the ratio of eosinophils, and the total serum IgE level. The number of cytoplasmic IgE-positive mast cells was significantly increased in moderate and severe ECRS. A positive correlation was observed between the cytoplasmic IgE-positive cells and the radiological severity score, the ratio of eosinophils in the blood, and the total IgE level. These results suggest that the process of mast cell internalization of antigens via the IgE receptor is involved in ECRS pathogenesis.

Background: Although there are studies regarding the efficacy of OK-432 sclerotherapy on thyroglossal duct cyst (TDC), its effects on surgical procedure following this therapy have not been properly described. Objectives: The present study aimed to delineate the prognostic factors of OK-432 sclerotherapy in patients with TDC and investigate its influence on subsequent surgical procedure and the histological characteristics in patients with poor response to OK-432 sclerotherapy. Material and methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of the medical records of 20 TDC patients treated with OK-432 sclerotherapy. Results: Of the 20 patients, OK-432 sclerotherapy was effective in 5 patients (25.0%). OK-432 showed a lower effective rate in multilocular cysts (9.1%) than in unilocular cysts (44.4%), although not significantly. Five cases were treated with surgery following OK-432 sclerotherapy. There was no significant difference in the operating time and the amount of bleeding between patients with and without OK-432 sclerotherapy. From the results of the histological examination of the cyst wall, two cases had stratified squamous epithelium and two cases showed the absence of lymphocyte infiltration. Conclusion and significance: OK-432 sclerotherapy is an acceptable initial treatment for TDC, especially in unilocular cysts, because of lack of influence on surgical procedure.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

Background: p16INK4a (p16) expression in tongue cancer (TC) is reportedly not associated with human papilloma virus (HPV). Mutations of KRAS in cancer cells are most frequently observed within codon 12. However, few reports have investigated the association between KRAS mutations and p16 status in TC. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the influence of KRAS mutations on TC. Methods: Clinical records and surgically resected specimens of 85 TC patients were analyzed. Tumor samples were analyzed for mutations of KRAS located within codons 12 and 13. p16 staining was performed and considered positive in cases with moderate to strong nuclear and cytoplasmic staining. Results: Positive p16 staining was observed in 10 cases (11.8%). A KRAS mutation was detected in one case (1.2%). The case with KRAS mutation showed negative p16 staining. Despite being at an early stage, the patient died of lung metastasis at 43 months from initial treatment. Conclusions and Significance: KRAS mutations are not associated with p16 expression in TC and may predict poor prognosis in TC patients. Further analysis of mutations in regions other than codons 12 and 13 of KRAS will be necessary to determine the relationship between KRAS mutations and prognosis of this disease.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

BACKGROUND: Traumatic tympanic membrane perforation (TTMP) is usually managed conservatively because most close spontaneously within a few months. Nevertheless, spontaneous closure of TTMP during long-term observation has not been well described in the literature. OBJECTIVES: The present study investigated factors associated with spontaneous closure of TTMP, and the characteristics of cases exhibiting spontaneous closure following long-term observation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The medical records of 40 patients with TTMP who visited the authors' hospital were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS: Spontaneous closure was observed in 27 (67.5%) patients. The healing period was <2 weeks in 6 cases, <4 weeks in 9, <3 months in 5, <6 months in 3, and ≥6 months in 4. All four cases in which spontaneous closure took ≥6 months exhibited a sign of spontaneous closure at 6 months following injury. Perforation in contact with the malleus was associated with a lower frequency of spontaneous closure. CONCLUSIONS AND SIGNIFICANCE: In TTMP, surgery should be considered in patients who exhibit perforation in contact with the malleus. However, it has also been suggested that long-term observation may be a viable treatment option when a sign of spontaneous closure is observed within 6 months following injury.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

The efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for superficial cancer of the pharynx are still unclear. To identify clinicopathological features of superficial pharyngeal cancer, and the efficacy and safety of ESD, we retrospectively assessed 70 pharyngeal cancers in 59 patients who underwent ESD. Of these patients, 61.0% and 50.8% had a history of esophageal cancer and head and neck cancer, respectively. The median tumor size was 15 mm, and 75.7% of the lesions were located at the piriform sinus. The en bloc resection rate was 94.9%. Treatment-related adverse events occurred in 8 cases, but there was no treatment-related death. The lateral margin was positive for neoplasm in 3 lesions (4.3%) and inconclusive in 27 lesions (38.6%), but no local recurrence was observed. Cervical lymph node metastasis was observed in 6 patients, and was successfully treated by cervical lymph node dissection. The three-year overall survival rate was 91.5% (95%CI: 76.6-97.3%) and the cause-specific survival rate was 97.6% (95%CI: 84.9-99.7%). In conclusion, ESD for superficial pharyngeal cancer was safe and effective. "Resect and watch" is probably a feasible and rational strategy for treatment of patients with superficial pharyngeal cancer.
