This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers contained in this volume were presented ati the Golden Jubilee Cancer Prevention Conference, "The Biology and Prevention of Aerodigestive Tract Cancers," sponsored by The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas, February 21-23, 1991. The purpose of the conference was to further the understanding of the biology, epidemiology, and prevention of aerodigestive tract cancers. Advances in under standing the biology of aerodigestive tract cancers have led to successful early chemoprevention trials. Chemopreventive agents in current use are capable 9f reversing premalignant lesions, as well as reducing the number of second primary cancers of the head and neck. These trials hold the promise that effective prevention methods for these cancers will be forthcoming in the foreseeable future. Carcinogenic exposures appear to affect the entiry epithelial lining of the upper aerodigestive tract, a phenomena described as "field cancerization. " This process contributes to the development of both synchronous and metachronous aerodigestive tract cancers. It also provides a sound rationale for the chemoprevention of these cancers. Animal models are important for identifying the critical components of field cancerization and for testing potentially new chemopreventive agents and regimens. The hamster lung carcinogen esis model and the hamster cheek model are discussed. Aerodigestive tract cancers account for about 20% of newly diagnosed invasive cancers. Cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption are the most important risk factors for these cancers.

Book excerpt: There is no single universal definition of the upper aerodigestive tract; for the purposes of this guideline, it encompasses the oral cavity, oropharynx, nasopharynx, hypopharynx, larynx, and paranasal sinuses. The vast majority of cancers at these sites are squamous cell carcinomas (National Head and Neck Cancer Audit, 2014). Some other cancers with less common histological diagnoses, such as mucosal melanomas of the upper aerodigestive tract, are also covered by this guideline.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn how to use a powerful medical advance in head and neck oncology – from the masters of the technique! The name Wolfgang Steiner is synonymous with transoral laser microsurgery for head and neck cancer. He has tirelessly promoted this innovative technique throughout the world and his clinic is considered the pioneering center in Europe. Thousands of students and practitioners have benefited from his teaching and lectures, allowing them to treat selected patients more safely and effectively than ever thought possible. Now for the first time, you have at your fingertips Dr. Steiner's detailed, step-by-step techniques for transoral laser microsurgery of the head and neck, showing how to excise tumors, preserve the larynx and other key structures, and dramatically decrease mortality. You will learn the insights and technical refinements that allow you to tailor your surgery to the extent of the cancer, even eradicating it in certain localized areas. You will see how to work in a fraction of the time, avoid complex throat and neck reconstructions, preserve voice structures, and greatly enhance the patient's quality of life. Special features of this landmark book include: Written by the developers of this innovative, minimally invasive technique 300 endoscopic color images and explanatory drawings illustrate the diagnostic and surgical procedures on a step-by-step basis Ideal for students as well as for practitioners seeking to broaden their treatment options Offers an introduction to a rapidly growing standard in the field of head and neck oncology For the beginner as well as the experienced surgeon, this book offers masterful guidance on using modern laser technology to perform conservative laryngeal and other head and neck cancer surgeries, resulting in well-documented, lower morbidity rates. It will upgrade and enrich your skills and open a wide range of treatment options that you can offer your patients. Stay up-to-date with new technology; reserve your copy today! "To those who believe, no explanation is necessary, but the Steiner book delivers technical refinements and insights that will expand the surgeon's skill. To those who are skeptical, the book addresses the basic principles of...a great adventure and probably the major positive change in head and neck oncology of the last three or four decades."—From the Foreword by Lawrence W. Desanto, MD, Professor Emeritus, Mayo Medical School, Rochester, Minnesota

This book was released on 2012-07-23 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many tumors of the upper respiratory tract are squamous cell carcinomas, the varied tissues of this region can give rise to a bewildering array of neoplasms. This text reviews the interpretation of biopsies of neoplasms and neoplasm-like entities arising in the head and neck region, including the ear. It discusses both neoplastic and non-neoplastic pathology to help make the correct diagnosis and guide patient management.
