A secondary analysis of the NDURE randomized trial highlights how enhanced care navigation improves timely postoperative radiation therapy in head and neck cancer patients. Key mediators include preoperative radiation consults, early dental clearance, and timely post-op evaluations within 21 days.

For years, radioactive iodine (RAI) was standard for intermediate-risk papillary thyroid cancer. New research and the ATA 2025 guidelines now support a more selective approach, allowing many patients to avoid RAI based on postoperative markers and imaging without increasing recurrence risk.

Actinic cheilitis is a precursor to lip squamous cell carcinoma. Recent research explores how extracellular matrix remodeling, specifically markers like podoplanin and tenascin-C, signal the critical transition from UV-induced damage to invasive malignancy, offering new diagnostic insights for clinicians.

Head and Neck Neuroendocrine Carcinoma (HNNEC) is a rare malignancy with outcomes that vary by site and histology. A 2026 systematic review highlights that laryngeal tumors treated with multimodal therapy often yield better survival rates compared to sinonasal or salivary gland localizations.
