Trends of temporal bone cancer: SEER database
American Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Medicine and Surgery Sep 19, 2019
Acharya PP, et al. - In this retrospective review, researchers examined epidemiological trends related to temporal bone cancer, and primarily of the squamous cell subtype. Analyzed potential trends included age, gender, and geographical location. Between 1975 and 2016, cases were selected and using the primary site of Middle Ear (Site code C30.1), and then narrowed using additional variables, including age, gender, and state-county. According to findings, age at temporal bone cancer diagnosis was strongly linked to temporal bone cancer prevalence. In assessing older adults with risk factors for temporal bone cancer and an abnormal physical examination, providers were urged to consider subtypes of temporal bone cancer, including squamous cell carcinoma.
