- W4386062298 abstract "Hypopharyngeal cancer has the bleakest prognosis among head and neck cancers due to its extensive submucosal involvement, advanced tumor stage, and limited surgical reconstruction options. Its primary causes include alcohol consumption, tobacco use, genetic predisposition, 1` diet, and socioeconomic conditions. While squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) accounts for 95% of hypopharyngeal tumors, it remains a rare form, comprising only 3%-5% of all SCC cases in the head and neck region. Globally, Central and Eastern Europe have the highest incidence rates for males (3.9 per 100000) and the third highest for females (2.26 per 100000), underscoring the significance of this seemingly uncommon condition. In Romania, hypopharyngeal cancer ranked 24th in incidence rate, with 634 new cases in 2020.To study the incidence, treatment and survival rates of hypopharyngeal tumor cases in a major ear, nose, throat (ENT) surgical center.A retrospective epidemiological clinical study was conducted on patients diagnosed and treated for hypopharyngeal cancer at the ENT department of Carol Davila Central University Emergency Military Hospital in Bucharest between January 2018 and August 2022. The study included 53 patients and was authorized by the Ethics Committee of Titu Maiorescu Doctoral School (Bucharest, Romania) and the Ethics Committee of Carol Davila Central University Emergency Military Hospital (Bucharest, Romania). Inclusion criteria required a positive histopathological diagnosis of hypopharyngeal cancer, tumor localization in the hypopharyngeal region, and informed consent for data usage. Exclusion criteria involved major psychiatric pathologies and disagreement for data usage. Diagnosis was based on ENT assessment, imaging reports, and laboratory data. Treatment methods were determined based on various factors. Additional tools, such as Adult Comorbidity Evaluation-27 and Karnofski Performance Status Scale, were used for risk assessment and functional capacity evaluation. Quality of life aspects were measured using the European Organisation for Reasearch and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Head and Neck-35 questionnaire.Our retrospective study examined 53 patients with hypopharyngeal cancer between January 2018 and August 2022. The majority of patients were male (94.3%), with an average age at diagnosis of 62.5 years. Among the patients, 20.75% were employed, 66.03% were retired, and 9.43% were unemployed. Smoking was prevalent among 69.81% of patients, while alcohol consumption was frequent in 32.07% of cases. The tumors were mostly diagnosed at an advanced stage (stage IV) and were predominantly SCC. Comorbidities were present in 83.01% of patients, with cardiovascular diseases being the most common. Dysphagia and neck mass were the most common symptoms reported. Treatment methods included surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. A favorable treatment response was observed in 22.64% of cases, while relapse occurred in 6 cases. Follow-up data was unavailable for some patients.In summary, our findings align with existing literature; however, we observed a higher severity." @default.
