The majority of PPS tumors are benign, but a wide spectrum of pathologies, both benign and malignant, has been encountered in this region. This range of histopathologies in combination with the complex anatomy of the parapharyngeal space creates complex diagnostic and management challenges.Objective: To desc...

Filipe, Joana; Ribeiro, Helena; Amaral, André; Fino, Rui; Estibeiro, Hugo; Montalvão, Pedro; Magalhães, MiguelFor selected glottic and supraglottic cancers it is possible to perform conservation laryngeal surgery with supracricoid partial laryngectomy (SCLP). Depending on the extension of surgical resection achieved reconstruction can be done by cricohyoidopexy (CHP) or Cricohyoidoepiglottopexy (CHEP). The possibility of speech preservation without a permanent stoma is an advantage in successful reconstructions, howeve...

Branco, Carla; Subtil, João; Ristori, António; Estiveiro, Hugo; Fino, Rui; Oliveira, Luis; Ferreira, Lígia; Montalvão, Pedro; Magalhães, MiguelAdjuvant radiotheropy plays nowadays an important role in the treatment of patients with laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. When used alone, radiotherapy has similar results as surgery in local control of tumors in early stage (I and 11). The effectiveness of radiotherapy in the treatment of cervical ganglionar metastasis remains controversial and there is a conviction that these metastasís a...
