    Abstract Objectives/hypothesis: There is little evidence to support the removal of thyroid tissue during total laryngectomy. Although oncological control of the tumor is the priority, thyroidectomy can lead to hypothyroidism and hypoparathyroidism. This study aimed to test the usefulness of preoperative computed tomography in predicting histological invasion of the thyroid.
    Study design: Ambispective cohort study.
    Methods: All patients undergoing total laryngectomy for squamous cell carcinoma at one center from 2006 to 2016 were included. Data were recorded prospectively as part of the patients' standard care, but were collated retrospectively, giving this study an ambispective design. The histology report for thyroid invasion was taken as the gold standard. The computed tomography report was categorized by invasion of tumor into intralaryngeal, laryngeal cartilage involvement, and extralaryngeal tissues.
    Results: Seventy-nine patients were included. Nine patients had thyroid involvement on histology, translating to an incidence of 11.29% in this population. The positive predictive value for cartilage involvement on computed tomography for thyroid invasion was 52.9% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 28.5%-76.1%) and the negative predictive value was 100% (95% CI: 92.7%-100%).The positive predictive value for extralaryngeal spread on computed tomography for thyroid involvement was 100% (95% CI: 62.9%-100%), and the negative predictive value was also 100% (95% CI: 93.5%-100%).
    Conclusions: This study has shown that preoperative computed tomography is an effective method of ruling out thyroid gland invasion. The absence of extralaryngeal spread on computed tomography has been shown to be the most useful finding, with a high negative predictive value and a narrow 95% CI.

    Abstract First branchial cleft anomalies are uncommon, and only sporadic case reports are published in the literature. They account for 1% to 8% of all the branchial abnormalities. The often variable presentation and tract siting of first arch fistulae have led to misdiagnosis. The misdiagnosis results in inappropriate/ineffective treatment and recurrence of the sinus tract. We present a 19-year-old woman who presented to the ENT outpatient department with episodic discharge from a long-standing fistula anterior to the left sternomastoid muscle. This was associated with repeated episodes of ipsilateral tonsillitis. In relation to the history and because of the position of the fistula, a diagnosis of second branchial arch fistula was made. An attempt at excision was unfortunately followed by early recurrence of discharge. At review following the procedure, a defect of the left tympanic membrane in the form of a fibrous band was noted, and a revised diagnosis of first branchial arch sinus was made. Wide surgical excision of the tract with partial parotidectomy was performed. An uneventful postoperative course followed, with no recurrence of symptoms after 24 months of review. We discuss the case, the diagnostic pathway, and the wide local excision technique used for removal of branchial fistulae.

    Abstract The authors report the case to understand this unusual presentation and prognosis of mucoepidermoid carcinoma following treatment. We present a case of mucoepidermoid carcinoma in a 67-year-old man. The cancer was diagnosed in the right side of his neck but the primary tumor remained unknown despite attempts at staging. The neck was treated successfully and followed up for 2 years. Metastasis of the primary lesion to the left triceps was diagnosed following a swelling noticed by the patient during the 2-year follow up period. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma can be a low, intermediate or high-grade malignancy and can metastasize to different parts of the body. However, this is the first case report of a metastasis to the triceps muscle.

    Abstract To compare the efficacy of alkaline nasal douches and decongestant nasal drops following nasal septal surgery. This was a prospective, randomised, single-blind pilot study. Twenty patients were included in each arm of the study undergoing elective nasal septal surgery. The primary outcome measure was nasal congestion. Secondary outcome measures were anosmia, facial pain, nasal discharge, and sneezing/itching. This study does not show any statistically significant difference between the two treatment groups. Symptoms of nasal congestion (P = 0.3), facial pain (P = 0.932), nasal discharge (P = 0.98), sneezing (P = 0.59) and anosmia (P = 0.208) were analysed before conclusion. Three patients in saline group and one patient in the nasal drops group had poor compliance to follow the advice, scoring 2 on a VAS score but the treatment was tolerated well in majority of the patients. No statistical significant differences were noted on analysing the post operative complications in either group. In this study, both nasal douches and decongestant nasal drop were well tolerated. Both treatments provided good postoperative relief from nasal congestion, nasal discharge, sneezing, facial pain and anosmia as days progressed. The post operative examination of the nose among these patients revealed no significant complications in either of the study arm.

    Abstract The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency stated in 2003 that doctors should endeavour to avoid using products in treatments not covered by their product licence. Foley catheters are commonly used in the management of epistaxis although their product licence does not cover this. We undertook a questionnaire survey of members of the British Association of Otorhinolaryngologists--Head & Neck Surgeons to study the extent of the use of these catheters and the knowledge that members had of their legal status. Most members appear to use Foley catheters in the management of epistaxis; however, many are not aware that the product is not licensed for this purpose. Because of this lack of knowledge, only half obtain verbal consent for treatment with this device and only a very small number obtain written consent from patients. In the era of increasing litigation, documentation of informed consent could be considered mandatory to protect us from possible legal action, and this needs to be known by all practising otolaryngologists.

    Abstract Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is characterised by multiple laryngeal papillomas. Left untreated, the lesions enlarge, spread, and endanger the airway. Medical treatments are unsatisfactory, and repeated surgery remains the mainstay of therapy. RRP is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. However, since oral HPV infection is common and RRP is rare, other host and/or viral factors may contribute to pathogenesis. In an attempt to identify such factors, we have investigated 60 patients. The patients were HLA class I, II, and tumor necrosis factor TNF typed by sequence-specific primer PCR, and the results compared to those for 554 healthy controls by using Fisher's exact test. Peripheral blood mononuclear cell proliferative responses of 25 controls and 10 patients to HPV-11 L1 virus-like particles (VLP) were compared. Short-term VLP-specific T-cell lines were established, and recognition of L1 was analyzed. Finally, the L1 open reading frames of HPV isolates from four patients were sequenced. Susceptibility to RRP was associated with HLA DRB1*0301 (33 of 60 patients versus 136 of 554 controls, P < 0.0001). The three most severely affected patients were homozygous for this allele. A range of T-cell proliferative responses to HPV-11 VLP were observed in DRB1*0301-positive healthy donors which were comparable to those in DRB1*0301-negative controls. Individuals with juvenile-onset RRP also mounted a range of VLP responses, and their magnitude was negatively correlated with the clinical staging score (P = 0.012 by the Spearman rank correlation). DRB1*0301-positive patients who responded to L1 recognized the same epitope as did matched controls and produced similar cytokines. Sequencing of clinical isolates excluded the possibility that nonresponsiveness was the result of mutation(s) in L1.
