Excellent job by the @ENT_Canada Canadian Head & Neck Collaborative Large oral cavity database with 8 high volume centers @med_umontreal - great leaders in this study Award winning work ! – at Montréal, Québec
In this multicenter cohort study of patients with oral cavity cancer requiring surgery & radiation therapy in Canada, failure to initiate adjuvant radiation therapy within six weeks was assoc with worse overall survival and disease-free survival. ja.ma/43kpHiq #AHNS2023

Fantastic work from @DrTonyEskander, further demonstrating volume-outcome relationships in oncologic thyroid surgery. In this study, less than 40 cases per year (surgeon-level) was associated with lower DFS (and less than 18 even lower)

This study led by @rfjohnson77 of 96,415 children undergoing tonsillectomy found that the 5th, 50th, and 95th percentiles for bleeding were 1.17%, 1.97%, and 4.75%, respectively. This data may be useful for quality initiatives and surgeon self-monitoring jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
