  • Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a heterogeneous disease, characterized by accumulation of dendritic cells with features similar to epidermal Langerhans cells. It is a rare entity that may involve various organ levels such as the skeletal, pulmonary, hematopoietic and lympho-vascular systems. The patient was a 1-year-old female presented with fever associated with otorrhea and palpable cervical lymph node for 4 days. Neck ultrasonography and Computed tomography imaging revealed multiple enlarged lymph nodes suggesting suspicious malignant morphology. Lymph node biopsy was performed under general anesthesia. Histological and immunophenotypic examination showed the lymph node to be consistent with LCH. The patient was given chemotherapy.

  • 술전 경부 임파절 평가의 정확성은 신체검사와 방사선학적 소견 모두에서 정확성의 한계를 보였으며, 정확성을 보다 높이기 위해서는 임상의사와 방사선의사간에 의견 교환이 중요하다고 사료된다. 그리고 필요에 따라서는 초음파 촬영, 세침 흡인세포검사(FNAC) 등의 보조적인 임파절 평가 방법을 이용하는 것도 전체 정진율을 높일 수 있을 것이다. 또한 구강암의 원발 부위가 고위험군인 경우에는 가음성도 비율이 높고, 방사선학적 검사에서 전체 정진율이 낮은 결과를 보이는 것으로 볼때, 지금까지 알려진대로 예방적 경부 곽청술을 보다 적극적으로 고려하는 것이 필요하다고 사료된다.

  • Background and Objectives: Metastasis to the submental and submandibular lymph nodes rarely occurs in squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx and hypopharynx. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of level I neck dissection in squamous cell carcinoma of larynx and hypopharynx. Materials and Methods : Forty-three patients with pathologically positive cervical nodal involvement in squamous cell carcinoma of larynx and hypopharynx treated between 1989 to 1998 were reviewed. Fifteen patients were treated with neck dissection including level 1,28 patients were treated with neck dissection excluding the level 1. Results : The regional recurrence at the level I in patients treated with neck dissection excluding the level I, was shown in only one case (recurrence rate 3.6%), but this patient was efficiently managed with salvage operation and adjuvant radiotherapy. No recurrence was shown in patients treated with neck dissection including the level I. So, total recurrence rate at the level I was 2.3%. Conclusion : This study suggests that dissection of the level I is not justified in squamous cell carcinoma of larynx and hypopharynx even if metastasis to cervical lymph node was confirmed preoperatively (cN+).

  • Ultrasonography is non-invasive and can give useful clues in the diagnosis of cervical lymphadenopathy, However, differential diagnosis is difficult in some situations even combined with color Doppler imaging. The present study was conducted to evaluate the clinical value of real time elastography in patients with unexplained cervical lymphadenopathy using a quantitative method. From May 2011 to February 2012, 39 enlarged lymph nodes from 39 patients with unexplained cervical lymphadenopathy were assessed. All the patients were examined by both B-mode ultrasound, color Doppler flow imaging and elastography. The method of analyzing elasto-graphic data was the calculation of the 10 parametres ("mean", "sd", "area%", "com", "kur", "ske", "con", "ent", "idm", "asm") offered by the software integrated into the Hitachi system. The findings were then correlated with the definitive tissue diagnosis obtained by lymph node dissection or biopsy. Final histology revealed 10 cases of metastatic lymph nodes, 11 cases of lymphoma, 12 cases of tuberculosis and 6 cases of nonspecific lymphadenitis. The significant distinguishing features for conventional ultrasound were the maximum short diameter (p=0.007) and absent of echogenic hilum (p=0.0293). The diagnostic accuracy was 43.6% (17/39 cases) and there were 17 patients with equivocal diagnosis. For elastography, "mean" (p=0.003), "area%" (p=0.009), "kurt" (p=0.0291), "skew" (p=0.014) and "cont" (p=0.012) demonstrated significant differences between groups. With 9 of the 17 patients with previous equivocal diagnoses (52.9%) definite and correct diagnoses could be obtained. The diagnostic accuracy for conventional ultrasound combined elastography was 69.2% (27/39 cases). There were differences in the diagnostic sensitivity of the two methods (p=0.0224). Ultrasound combined with elastography demonstrated higher rates of conclusive and accurate diagnoses in patients with unexplained cervical lymphadenopathy than conventional ultrasound. The quantitative program showed good correlation with the pathology of different lymph node diseases.

  • The mediastinoscopy was a well known useful diagnostic tool for detection of certain mediastinal tumors ,mediastinal lymph nodes invasion by bronchogenic carcinoma and metastatic cancer. A total of 33 cases of mediastinoscopies were reviewed, which were experienced at Chon Buk National University Hospital from August,1980 to October 1991. Mediastinoscopy was performed through anterior or parasternal approach in 18 cases, cervical approach in 14 cases and both in 1 case. In 12 cases which were used for preoperative stagig of lung cancer, 10 cases[83.3%] had the positive biopsy results at mediastinal nodes. In 11 cases for diagnosis of lymph nodes and masses with unknown lung lesion, small cell carcinoma revealed in 3 cases,squamous cell carcinoma in 2 , adenocarcinoma in 1 case and the others were had the negative biopsy results. In 10 cases for diagnosis of mediastinal tumors, lymphoma revealed in 2 cases, malignant thymoma in 2, sarcoidosis in 2, tuberculous granuloma in 1, mesothelioma in 1, metastatic cancer with unknown origin in 1 case. Thoracotomy was performed in 3 cases of lung cancers, 2 patients with negative biopsy results in preoperative staging and 1 patient with subcarinal lymph node involvement only. Bleeding complications during mediastinoscopy were developed in 2 cases, managed by anterior mini-thoracotomy.

  • A 67-year-old man with a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) underwent F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for staging of gastric cancer. The projection images of F-18 FDG PET/CT showed intensely increased F-18 FDG uptake in the anterior neck, chest wall, and upper abdomen. We suspected distant metastases of cervical lymph nodes, ribs, and peritoneum in gastric canter. However, the transaxial images of F-18 FDG PET/CT showed abnormal F-18 FDG uptake in scalene muscles of anterior neck, intercostal muscles of chest wall, and diaphragm of upper abdomen. Patients with COPD use respiratory muscles extensively on the resting condition. These excessive physiologic use of respiratory muscles causes increased F-18 FDG uptake as a result of increased glucose metabolism. The F-18 FDG uptake in respiratory muscles of gastric cancer patient with COPD mimicked distant metastases in cervical lymph nodes, ribs, and peritoneum.

  • We systematically reviewed the literature on the co-occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and Warthin's tumor (WT), thought to be quite rare, to help reduce misdiagnosis and improve treatment planning. For this systematic review, we searched for articles in the Web of Science and PubMed databases, analyzed relevant studies for forward and backward citations, and identified only articles reporting on the "co-occurrence" of WT and SCC. Of the 237 studies identified, 12 comprising 18 patients met the inclusion criteria, to which we added one study from our institution. Most WTs were associated with SCC in the parotid gland or cervical lymph nodes. Most patients (89.5%) underwent selective or radical neck dissection due to identification of lesions separate from the primary SCC. Despite its frequent co-occurrence with other neoplasms, WT in the parotid or cervical lymph nodes tends to be misdiagnosed as a metastatic node when SCC is observed as the primary tumor. Factors to consider in diagnosis and neck management include identification of an association other than growth or development by lymphangiogenesis and whether the patient is a smoker, a strong risk factor.

  • Extraparotid Warthin's tumor(EPWT) is a rare disease entity; its incidence is about 8% of Warthin's tumor(WT). The periparotid and upper cervical lymph nodes are the most predilection sites. The lymphoid tissue of WT can act like a regional lymph node, and the necrosis and inflammation within the tumor are well known. In our cases, both 81-year-old man and 58-year-old man were visited our clinic, presented with upper lateral neck mass that had been present for the last few months. We operated the excisional biopsy in level ll of neck. The pathologic examination was proven to be EPWT. We report the unique two cases of extraparotid Warthin's tumor with literature review.
