摘要
ObjectivesTo assess airway, safety, and resource utilization outcomes between transoral base of tongue (BOT) surgery with staged versus concurrent bilateral neck dissections (BND).MethodsA retrospective cohort study of patients with human papilloma virus (HPV)-related BOT cancer who underwent transoral surgery and BND from January 2015 through June 2022 was conducted. Free flap patients were excluded.ResultsOf 126 patients (46 [37%] staged and 80 [63%] concurrent BND), there were no significant differences in rates of postoperative intubation, tracheostomy, intensive care admission, operative takebacks, gastrostomy, and 30-day readmission. Total operative time (median difference 1.4 [95% CI 0.9-1.8] hours), length of stay (1.0 [1.0-1.0] day), and time between primary surgery and adjuvant therapy initiation (4.0 [0.0-8.0] days) were lower in the concurrent BND cohort.ConclusionConcurrent BND alongside transoral BOT resection is safe with similar airway outcomes and lower total operative time, length of stay, and time to adjuvant therapy initiation compared to staged BND.
