About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Local Control in Buccinator Muscle Excision With the Skin Versus Buccinator Muscle Excision Without the Skin in Buccal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Evaluation of local control in buccinator muscle excision with the skin versus buccinator muscle excision without the skin in buccal squamous cell carcinoma: A randomized clinical trial.

Read the detailed description

Preoperative Multi Slice CT scan or MRI carried out for evaluation the lymph node of the neck. Also, ultrasound carried out for measuring the depth of invasion of the tumour in the cheek (The invasion in the buccinator muscle).

  • Under general anaesthesia, the buccal squamous cell carcinoma which invaded the buccinator muscle will be excised with the skin of the cheek. This will be done by a safety margins in the soft tissue and the mandible may be resected according to the plan and the invasion of the tumour.
  • A neck dissection will be done in all cases of negative or positive neck lymph node.
  • Reconstruction of the soft tissue will be done immediately by a major pectorals flap with the skin, also bony reconstruction may be done by a reconstructed plate at the time of surgery then the patients will be prepared for bone graft in another surgery.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact ahmed yousef, PHD (01067941236, dr.ayousef@ymail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

local control (time frame: up to 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Dec 2017.
