    Abstract Background: There is no consensus about the optimal management of the neck in clinically node negative esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB). The aim of this study is to assess the impact of elective neck irradiation (ENI) in terms of regional disease control and survival.
    Methods: The study was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines searching on Scopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, and Google Scholar databases. The primary outcome was the regional recurrence rate (RRR), that was reported as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Secondary outcomes were the overall survival (OS), and the distant-metastases free survival (DMFS), that were reported as logarithm of the hazard ratios (logHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
    Results: A total of 489 clinically node negative patients were included from 9 retrospective studies. ENI significantly reduced the risk of regional recurrence compared to no treatment. No difference was measured between ENI and observation, according to both OS and DMFS. No stratified analysis could be performed based on Kadish stage and Hyams grade.
    Conclusions: ENI should be recommended to improve the regional disease control. No advantage was measured in terms of survival or distant metastases with a low quality of evidence. Further prospective studies should be designed to understand if ENI could be avoided in early stage and low-grade tumors.

    Abstract Background: The high-definition 3D exoscope is an innovative and promising tool that was recently introduced in the clinical practice. It may be used during open surgical procedures to enhance the ability to perform precise dissection of fine structures. We describe our preliminary experience with the 3D exoscope in thyroid surgery, discussing potential advantages of this system.
    Methods: A high-definition 3D exoscope (3D VITOM
    Results: The 3D exoscope was used in three patients without significant intra-operative delay or complications. Both thyroidectomy and central compartment dissection were performed. The 3D exoscope allows to perform precise dissection in the identification and preservation of the recurrent laryngeal nerve and the parathyroid glands.
    Conclusions: 3D exoscope-assisted thyroid surgery seems to be feasible and safe. Further studies should be encouraged to analyze potential clinical benefit in the post-operative period.

    Abstract The aim of our study was to better define the role of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (cSCCHN). A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed according to the PRISMA statement. Seven-hundred and five patients were included from 20 studies. The pooled SLN identification rate was 98.8% (95%CI: 97.0-99.8). The median number of SLN excised was 3.6 (n = 371, 95%CI: 2.0-4.4). The pooled SLNB positive rate and cumulative regional recurrence rate (RRR) in negative SLNB were 5.6% (95%CI: 2.6-9.6) and 2.9% (95%CI: 0.5-7.2), respectively. The high SLN identification rate demonstrates SLNB feasibility in cSCCHN. The low SLNB positive rate and the relatively high RRR raise some doubts concerning its clinical utility. Further studies are mandatory to define predictors of lymph node metastases able to better select patients that may benefit from a SLNB.

    Abstract Background: Recently, many studies have investigated the role of tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) in carcinogenesis, highlighting its relation to both tumor regression and progression. In particular, the "inflammatory system", made of innate and adaptive immune cells, interacts with cancer cells and their surrounding stroma. In this setting, the aim of this review is to summarize the current literature regarding the TIME of major salivary gland carcinomas (MSGCs), with particular attention on the characteristics and prognostic role of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), the mechanisms that lead to TILs exhaustion and the important additional immune infiltrating factors that help SGC progression or remission.
    Methods: A comprehensive literature search was performed concerning published articles on the role of TIME in MSGCs.
    Results: In this work we summarize the advancing knowledge on TIME in SGCs by demonstrating the key prognostic and/or predictive value of specific immune features.
    Conclusion: From the analysis of the current 'status of the art' it clearly emerges a need for precise, unambiguous phenotyping of immune cell populations, as well as a more thorough understanding of the frequencies and interactions of multiple immune cell types inside the TIME and their spatial localization (intratumoral vs. stromal).
