This study was undertaken to determine whether p53 or bcl-2 immunoexpression has any significance in the prognosis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Eighty-four cases of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma at different pathological stages and locations were studied. All patients were treated surgically first, and followed up for 6–96 months (mean, 35 months). p53 and bcl-2 immunoexpression in tumour cells, evaluated by image analysis and histoscore, were found in 71.4% and 46.4% of tumours, respectively. Glottic location was correlated with significantly longer survival than tumours at other locations. Pathological stage and histological grade of tumour were also significant predictors of survival. Neither p53 nor bcl-2 immunoexpression was found to be predictive of post-operative survival. Only transglottic tumours expressed significantly high levels of bcl-2. Both methods used to evaluate p53 and bcl-2 immunoexpression correlated well with each other. This study suggests that immunoexpression of p53 and bcl-2 is not a significant prognostic predictor in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Post Surgery

Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is the most common malignant head and neck cancer, with a 40% recurrence rate in the first 3 years after radical treatment. Recurrence of LSCC mostly comprises lymphogenous metastasis, hematogenic metastasis, and locoregional recurrence, while LSCC seeding is rarest: there are only 4 cases reported in PubMed, and none of them is one of subcutaneous seeding. We report a case with post-surgery subcutaneous seeding of LSCC. The final biopsy demonstrated that the subcutaneous seeding of the LSCC was 2 cm away from the primary lesion, with no recurrent foci observed in the larynx and tracheostoma and little relation to the primary lesion. Thus, we drew the conclusion that LSCC surgeries should stick to the principle of the non-tumor technique to prevent subcutaneous seeding.

The presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) in the tumor microenvironment has been demonstrated to be of prognostic value in various cancers. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we investigated the prognostic value of TIL in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). We performed a systematic search in PubMed for publications that investigated the prognostic value of TIL in LSCC. A meta-analysis was performed including all studies assessing the association between TIL counts in hematoxylin-eosin (HE)-stained sections, for CD8+ and/or CD3+/CD4+ TIL and overall survival (OS) or disease-free survival (DFS). The pooled meta-analysis showed a favorable prognostic role for stromal TIL in HE sections for OS (HR 0.57, 95% CI 0.36–0.91, p = 0.02), and for DFS (HR 0.56, 95% CI 0.34–0.94, p = 0.03). High CD8+ TIL were associated with a prolonged OS (HR 0.62, 95% CI 0.4–0.97, p = 0.04) and DFS (HR 0.73, 95% CI 0.34–0.94, p = 0.002). High CD3+/CD4+ TIL demonstrated improved OS (HR 0.32, 95% CI 0.16–0.9, p = 0.03) and DFS (HR 0.23, 95% CI 0.10–0.53, p = 0.0005). This meta-analysis confirmed the favorable prognostic significance of TIL in LSCC. High stromal TIL evaluated in HE sections and intra-tumoral and stromal CD3+, CD4+ and/or CD8+ TIL might predict a better clinical outcome.
