Stroke death in patients receiving radiation for head and neck cancer in the modern era
CONCLUSIONS: While radiotherapy for head and neck cancer increases the hazard of stroke death, this is reduced in the modern era and remains a very small absolute risk.PMID:37397363 | PMC:PMC10313411 | DOI:10.3389/fonc.2023.1111764

A review on the role of ADAMTS9-AS2 in different disorders
Pathol Res Pract. 2023 Jan 27;243:154346. doi: 10.1016/j.prp.2023.154346. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecent decade has seen a tremendous progress in identification of the role of different long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in human pathologies. ADAMTS9-AS2 is an example of lncRNAs with different roles in human disorders. It is mostly acknowledged as a tumor suppressor lncRNA in different types of cancers. However, it has been reported to be up-regulated in tongue squamous cell carcinoma, salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma and glioblastoma. Moreover, ADAMTS9-AS2 is possibly involved in the pathoetiology of pulpitis, acute is...

Patients With Head/Neck Cancer See Lower Stroke Risk With Initial Surgery
(MedPage Today) -- In oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), the type of initial treatment appears to influence the likelihood of stroke in the years afterward, researchers said. A population-based study of U.S. veterans treated for OPSCC...

E-224 Bilateral external carotid artery sacrifice in massive refractory hemorrhage of the pharynx: a case report
This report suggests that bilateral ECA embolization may be safe in acute settings. In this report, the bleeding did not respond to conservative or surgical management and ECA embolization was used as a life-saving procedure in order to stop massive bleeding. Bilateral external carotid artery embolization is rarely employed because of the high risk of facial necrosis. Additionally, ECAs are also assumed to serve as potential blood reservoirs, particularly in the case of ICA occlusion where the ipsilateral ECA can significantly contribute to intracranial blood flow via collaterals. However, in this report, no complications ...

Risk of Stroke After Definitive Radiotherapy —Cause for Concern or Modest Risk?
With the rapidly increasing prevalence of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC), largely driven by the human papillomavirus (HPV) epidemic, and with relative equipoise between radiation-based and surgery-based treatment protocols, there has been renewed interest in describing differences in functional outcomes between the 2 treatment modalities. Radiation is theoretically related to stroke risk due to carotid artery intimal injury, which could lead to the development of atherosclerosis. Both carotid artery stenosis and carotid intima-medial thickness have been shown to be associated with radiation therapy providing...

Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Neck: An Unlikely Stroke Mimic
Stroke mimics are noncerebrovascular conditions that present with classical stroke symptoms. They account for up to 30% of stroke presentations in the emergency department (ED). Emergency physicians are faced with a diagnostic dilemma —rapid treatment of stroke, a leading cause or mortality and morbidity in the United States, or ruling out the ever-growing list of conditions that mimic strokes.

Recurrent Stroke and Fatal Ruptured Mycotic Aneurysm Caused by Invasive < em > Aspergillus fumigatus < /em > Infection
CONCLUSION: In immunosuppressed patients with neutropenia or using chronic steroids who have concurrent pulmonary and CNS infection, there should be a low threshold to treat empirically for fungal infections prior to confirmation of diagnosis.PMID:33974773
