Abstract

Background

Squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag) level and C-reactive protein (CRP) have been shown to be associated with tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, staging and survival in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The purpose of the present study was to analyze the relationship between preoperative levels of both SCC-Ag and CRP, with clinicopathologic factors and prognosis in OSCC patients.

Methods

A retrospective study was performed on 142 OSCC patients between March 2008 and March 2011. Their serum SCC-Ag and CRP levels were measured preoperatively.

Results

SCC-Ag level of ≥2.0 ng/ml and CRP level ≥5.0 mg/L were significantly associated with pathologic tumor status (P < 0.001), pathologic nodal metastasis (P = 0.001), tumor depth (≥10 mm vs. <10 mm, P < 0.001), disease-free survival (P ≤ 0.001) and overall survival (P ≤ 0.001). The influence of SCC-Ag and CRP level on disease-free survival (hazard ratio 4.046, 95 % confidence interval 1.698–9.692) and overall survival (hazard ratio 3.655, 95 % confidence interval 1.464–9.130) still existed after adjusting for tumor status, lymph node metastasis and tumor cell differentiation.

Conclusions

Concurrent high levels of both preoperative SCC-Ag and CRP levels act as a predictor for lymph node metastasis, advanced tumor stage and tumor recurrence. It therefore has significant potential as a biomarker for risk stratification in OSCC.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

Radiusfraktur BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Webinar beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
