TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT DISORDERS
Diagnosis is aided with OPG, and isotope bone scans can also be useful. Management is with removal of the growth plate, and when burnt out, orthognathic jaw realignment.
Infection of the TMJ
Infection of the TMJ is an uncommon occurrence in the developed world. It can be due to direct inoculation of the joint or distant spread. Primary infection can be bony (osteo­myelitis) or involve the so tissue (arthritis). e usual causative agent is Staphylococcus aureus. e most common cause is local spread from neighbouring structures—ear, brain, or oropharynx. Haematogenous spread is rare.
Management includes diagnostic aspiration, intravenous antibiotics, and systemic support if required. Repeated arthrocentesis may be required.
Neoplastic Disease of the TMJ
Primary benign and malignant tumours of the TMJ are rare and include chondroma, osteo­chondroma, and osteoma. Benign tumours tend to have slow growth and present with occlu­sal deformity, centreline deviation, and chin point changes.
Management includes excision and reconstruction, with or without orthognathic corrective surger y.
Iatrogenic/Idiopathic Disorders
e previous use of open surgery for pain, restriction, and joint noises has led to troublesome sequelae. Most of the problems include pain from local damage and are best managed in conjunction with the pain team.
Initial Management
e primary management of most TMJ disorders is reassurance that there is unlikely to be a signicant underlying condition. e disorder is unlikely to precede arthritis, and the majority of patients can be managed with nonsurgical treatments. ere is an underlying psychological component in a signicant number of patients.
Explanation of the disease process will help empower the patient and reduces the risk of the patient’s following misleading advice found on the internet.
Initial resting of the joint, with avoidance of sticky foods and restriction of wide mouth opening, will gradually improve most symptoms over a period of weeks. Use of a topical NSAID will give additional benet.
A lower, so, full occlusal coverage splint to wear at night helps reduce load on muscles and joint overnight and gives particular benet to those with a clenching habit. Again, it takes several weeks for the benet to be felt.
Following a 2-month trial, if there has been no signicant improvement or if there is severe restriction, then referral to a specialist is warranted.
Referral for maxillofacial advice is indicated when there is:
Acute severe restriction of opening
Failure of conservative measures in conjunction with dental care over 2 months
Associated rheumatological disease
Recurrent dislocation of joint
Disturbance of dental occlusion
Surgical Management
Surgery can be divided into open and closed procedures. Closed procedures are arthrocente­sis and arthroscopy. Arthrocentesis is the washing out of the upper joint space with 200 ml of isotonic solution, most commonly under general anaesthesia. It gives 70–80% improvement in cases of locking, restriction, and pain. Arthroscopy is similar but allows visualisation of the interna l joint anatomy. Both procedures ca rry a 1% risk of temporar y temporal branch wea kness.

BENIGN AND MALIGNANT CONDITIONS OF THE SKIN
Open joint surgery is approached by a pre-auricular incision, avoiding the facial nerve. Procedures include eminoplasty (modication of the articular eminence), condylar shave (modication of the condylar head), and full joint replacement. For full joint replacement, outcomes of >90% joint survival have been reported at 15 years.
Conclusion
TMJ disorders are a common cause of morbidity, although most can be managed with simple measures. Surgery should be considered a last resort.

76. BENIGN AND MALIGNANT CONDITIONS OF THE SKIN
Introduction
One in every three cancers is a skin cancer.
Common or important benign and malignant skin lesions that are discussed here are shown in bold in Table 76.1.
Benign and Premalignant Skin Lesions
Actinic Keratosis (AK)
Actinic keratosis is the most common premalignant lesion, with a low transformation rate into SCC. Found on sun-exposed areas (80% occur on the head and neck or hands). Asymptomatic, palpable, dry, scaly lesions. Biopsy is indicated if SCC is suspected. Nonsurgical options include topical treatments (e.g. 5-uorouracil or imiquimod), cryo­therapy, or photodynamic therapy (PDT). Surgery is either curettage and cautery (C&C) or excision with 2-mm margins.
Bowen’s Disease (BD; A.K.A. Squamous Cell Carcinoma in situ)
Risk of progression to SCC is 3–5%. Occurs on sun-exposed areas (mainly head and neck and lower limb). Lesions are asymptomatic, long-standing, and slow-growing well-dened/ demarcated scaly er ythematous plaques . Biopsy excludes dierentials (e.g. SCC). Nonsurgical and surgical management are similar to those for AK.
Keratoacanthoma (KA)
KA clinically and histologically resembles well-dierentiated SCC. However, it enlarges rapidly over 6 weeks and then regresses. Management is either observation (because KA spontaneously involutes) or removal if there is concern about SCC. Associations include Ferguson-Smith and Muir-Torre syndromes.

Premalignant pigmented Dysplastic/atypical mole
Lentigo maligna/melanoma in situ
Malignant pigmented Melanoma Soft tissue tumours Cutaneous sarcoma DFSP, MFX, AFX
Dysplastic/Atypical NevI
Dysplastic/atypical naevi occur in 5% of the population. ey contain atypical melanocytes but no invasion. ere is a 5% risk of change to melanoma. ey have unusual features: >5 mm diameter, irregular border, and pigment. FAMM syndrome (high risk of mela­noma) is >50 moles, dysplastic on histology, and a 1st/2nd-degree relative with melanoma. Management is in an atypical mole clinic and includes full skin examination with derma­toscopy and photographs. If there is diagnostic uncertainty, then treatment is excision with 2-mm margins.
Lentigo and Lentigo Maligna/Melanoma in situ
Lentigo is an increased number of normal melanocytes, lentigo maligna is an increased number of abnormal melanocytes, and lentigo maligna melanoma is invasive. Assessment of lentigo is with dermatoscopy, and if there is diagnostic uncertainty, then treatment is excision. Lentigo maligna/melanoma in situ is managed by excision with 5 mm margins, although histology may show incomplete margins, as associated with ‘eld change,’ and therefore require post-excision imiquimod or observation.
Non-Melanoma Skin Cancers (NMSC)
BCC and SCC are the main types.
Risk Factors
Risk factors are shown in Tables 76.2 and 76.3. Fitzpatrick types 1 and 2 have the highest risk.

Staging
Points on BCC/SCC American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 8th edition TNM classication:
a. Tumuor (T): T1 <2 cm, T2 2–4 cm, T3 > 4 cm or deep (e.g. >6 mm, perineural invasion,
beyond fat or minor bone), T4a gross bone involvement, and T4b skull base involved.
b. Node (N): Specic category for head and neck. c. Staging: Stage 1 = T1, Stage 2 = T2, Stage 3 = T3 or T1–3N1, Stage 4a = T4, T1–3N2/3,
Stage 4b = M1.
Basal Cell Carcinoma
Background
75% of NMSC. From epidermal keratinocytes. Locally invasive. Distant metastases are rare.
Clinical Features
Slow growing over months/years. Classically, pearly appearance with telangiectasia.
Classied as nodular (75%), supercial (15%), inltrative/morpheaform (10%), other.
Diagnosis
Clinical, but punch biopsy to exclude dierentials. Imaging (e.g. CT/MRI) if deep invasion.
Management
Principles
Decide if ‘high risk’ or ‘xed’. Risk factors: Macroscopic—Increasing size, poorly dened, location on central face. Microscopic—Inltrative/morpheaform or perineural invasion. Systemic—Immunosuppression.
Nonsurgical
Supercial BCC: Topical treatment (e.g. imiquimod/5-uorouracil), PDT, or cryotherapy.

BENIGN AND MALIGNANT CONDITIONS OF THE SKIN
Surgical
Options include:
1 Destructive treatments if small, well-dema rcated/supercial: C&C, cr yotherapy, CO2 laser 2 Nondestructive treatment: Excision
a. Margin for <2 cm and well-dened: 3 mm (85% clearance) or 4–5 mm (95%).
Depth is cu of fat.
b. Margin for large/poorly dened: 5 mm (80% clearance) or 13–15 mm (95%).
c. Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) for high-risk lesions in cosmetically sensitive
areas.
d. Incompletely excised (5%) options: Observe, re-excise +/− frozen section, Mohs,
radiotherapy.
Radiotherapy
Cure rates similar to surgery. First-line or adjuvant for incompletely excised tumours. Contraindicated for recurrent tumours in previously irradiated areas. Usually reserved for elderly.
Advanced disease
Vismodegib if locally advanced (e.g. Gorlin’s syndrome). Electrochemotherapy if other treat­ment failed.
Follow-Up
Completely excised tumours: no follow-up. Incompletely excised tumours: observe (or treat) for recurrence.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Background
Second most common NMSC. Malignant neoplasm of keratinocytes. Arise de novo or from precursor lesion. Potential to metastasize. Metastatic risk is low (< 5%), but if there is metas­tasis, 25–40% 5-year survival.
Clinical Features
1 History: Lesion grows quickly (e.g. weeks/months), may ulcerate or bleed. 2 Examination: If well-dierentiated, has everted nodule and keratin core; if poorly dif-
ferentiated, may be ulcerated. Check lymph nodes.
Diagnosis
1 Punch or incisional biopsy. Key histologic features include keratin pearls. 2 Fine-needle aspiration for cytology, or radiology-guided core biopsy if there is an
enlarged lymph node.
3 Staging CT if there is deep invasion (e.g. bone/parotid) or evidence of spread.
Management
Principles
High-risk lesions have increased risk of local recurrence and metastasis. Factors include:
1 Macroscopic: Size >2 cm, site, recurrent lesions. Sites include chronic/radiotherapy
wounds, non-sun-exposed areas (e.g. sole of foot), sun-exposed areas (e.g. lip or ear). NB: Other sun-exposed areas are lower risk.
2 Microscopic: Histological dierentiation (e.g. poor is worst), Broder grade (e.g. 3/4 worst),
subtype (e.g. acantholytic/spindle/desmoplastic worst), depth (>4 mm or perineural invasion, etc.).
3 Systemic: Immunosuppression.
Key management: Decide if ‘high risk’, ‘xed’, or ‘regional/distant spread’. en AJCC stage.

BENIGN AND MALIGNANT CONDITIONS OF THE SKIN
Surgical Treatment
1 Low-risk lesions (T1) have 4-mm margins, high-risk (T2 and above) have 6-mm mar-
gins minimum, ideally to fascia.
2 Consider MMS if high-risk or critical area. 3 Lymphadenectomy if there is regional disease.
Radiotherapy
SCC is radiosensitive. Radiotherapy is used as primary treatment or as an adjunct if there is incomplete surgical excision. However, radiotherapy does not give histology, is not curative if bone is involved, and over the long term can cause skin atrophy/telangiectasia, secondary cancer, or radionecrosis.
Melanoma
A malignant neoplasm of melanocytes. Accounts for 5% of skin cancers but 75% of skin cancer deaths.
Risk Factors
FPPARENTS mnemonic—Family history, Premalignant lesion (as above), Previous mela­noma, Age (median 59), Race (Caucasian), Economic status, Nevus (>50), Fitzpatrick Types 1&2, Sunburn/sunbed.
Pathology
1 V60 0E gene codes for BRAF enzyme, if it is mutated, then there is BRAF mutation and
cell proliferation.
2 Ultraviolet radiation (UVA/B) damage to DNA.
Clinical Features
1 (Dermatoscopy) assessment—ABCD mnemonic: Asymmetry, Border irregularity,
Colour, Diameter >6 mm
2 Regional lymph nodes and systemic examination 3 Photography
Management
Initial
Excision biopsy with 2-mm margin to fat. Incisional (or punch) biopsies only performed if large lesion (e.g. lentigo) or subungual melanoma.
MDT
Discuss results with Specialist Skin multidisciplinary team (SSMDT). Biopsy helps give:
a. Subtypes: Supercial spreading melanoma (60%), nodular melanoma (30%), lentigo
maligna melanoma (7%), acral lentiginous melanoma (2%), desmoplastic melanoma (1%).
b. AJCC stage: Staging system splits melanoma into cutaneous (Table 76.4) and head and
neck mucosal, conjunctival, and uveal melanoma.
Investigation
1 Stages IIC and above need BRAF testing on primary or secondary lesion. 2 Stage IIC (if no sentinel lymph node biopsy [SLNBx]) or IIIB/C needs staging CT of
head & neck/chest/abdomen/pelvis.
3 Stage IV needs serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) +/ PET CT.
Nonsurgical
Psychological support, vitamin D, inform colleagues (e.g. transplant team) if patient is on immunosuppressants.

2 Indications for dissection (NB: Head and neck involve levels 1–5 +/ supercial
parotidectomy):
a. Post SLNBx:
i. If SLNBx shows features of risk of regional relapse (e.g. extracapsular spread
or >3 nodes involved)
ii. Dewar criteria
iii. In head & neck and there is concern later surgical rescue would be complex
iv. Failed rst-line systemic treatment and node-only recurrence
b. Palpable/imaged IIIB/C positive for melanoma following FNAC or image-guided
core/open biopsy (if FNAC negative/equivocal)
3 NB: ere is no evidence of survival benet for ‘elective’ lymph node dissection.
Metastatic Disease (Stage III or IV)
1 Options:
a. Immunotherapy (checkpoint inhibitors)—Pembrolizumab/nivolumab (anti-PDL1)
or ipilumab (CTLA4 inhibitor)
b. Targeted therapy if BRAF mutation—Vemurafenib/dabrafenib (BRAF inhibitor),
or trametinib (MEK inhibitor), or imatinib (targets C-KIT gene)
c. Interleukin-2
d. Chemotherapy (e.g. dacarbazine)
2 Further locoregional recurrence options: Systemic therapy, surgical excision if isolated
lesions, CO2 laser or electrocautery if multiple small lesions, radiotherapy for symp­toms, electrochemotherapy if larger area.
Rare Skin Cancers
Merkel Cell Carcinoma
Aggressive and rare—has special AJCC TNM. Dermal neuroendocrine carci­noma. Associations include polyomavirus, previous radiation, B-cell lymphoma. Immunosuppression is a risk factor. Rapid, painless, enlarging, dome-shaped solid nodule on head and neck (50%). Lymph nodes may be involved at presentation (15%). Need tissue

biopsy. Subsequently, staging CT. Discuss in MDT. Wide excision with 2- to 3-cm margins to fascia, as well as SLNBx and adjuvant radiotherapy to primary site +/ regional nodes.
Sebaceous Carcinoma
Aggressive and rare. From sebaceous glands. Risk factors include Muir-Torres syndrome. Firm yellowish nodule, especially near eyelids (75%). Obtain tissue diagnosis. Discussion in MDT. Requires wide excision with minimal 5-mm margins or Mohs (33% risk of recur­rence). If orbit involved, exenteration.
Dermatobrosarcoma Protuberans
Most common skin sarcoma. Approximately 15% occur in head and neck. Incidence great­est in patients 20–40 years old. Intermediate malignancy, prone to local recurrence but not metastasis. Slow-growing, red/brown nodule xed to dermis. Obtain tissue biopsy. Discuss in MDT. Requires ~3-cm margins to fascia or Mohs. If unresectable or there are metastases, consider radiotherapy or chemotherapy (imatinib).

77. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF HEAD AND NECK ENDOCRINE GLANDS
Anatomy of the Thyroid Gland
Macroscopic Anatomy
e thyroid gland, a bilobed buttery-shaped endocrine organ, extends from the thyroid cartilage to the level of the fourth or h tracheal ring (Fig ure 77.1). Its lobes are connected by the isthmus overlying the second to fourth rings. e recurrent laryngeal nerve runs immediately posterior to the gland in the trachea-oesophageal groove.
e thyroid is held within the pre-tracheal fascia, which attaches superiorly to the hyoid bone, inferiorly to the mediastinum, and laterally to the carotid sheath. e bres condense posteriorly to form the suspensory ligament of Berry, which attaches rmly to the cricoid cartilage and rst tracheal ring.
e thyroid’s blood supply is from paired superior and inferior thyroid arteries. e superior thyroid artery arises as the rst branch of the external carotid, the inferior originates from the thyrocervical trunk. Less commonly, the isthmus receives blood from the brachioce­phalic trunk via the thyroid ima artery.
Venous return occurs through a venous plexus, draining the paired superior and middle thy­roid veins to the internal jugular vein, and the inferior thyroid veins to the brachiocephalic vein. e thyroid has an extensive lymphatic drainage, with peri-thyroid nodes draining to the pre-laryngeal, pre-tracheal, para-tracheal, and deep cervical nodes.
Common Anatomical Variants
A third ‘pyramidal’ lobe can arise from the upper poles or the isthmus; it is seen as a short stump or a process extending to the hyoid bone. Additionally, in approximately 60% of patients, the tubercule of Zuckerkandl is seen extending immediately lateral to the recurrent laryngeal nerve.
Developmental Anatomy
e thyroid gland is derived from the primitive pharynx (median anlage) between the rst and second branchial arches and the lateral anlage. By week 7, these fuse and are pulled into position by descent of the heart, and they remain attached to the pharyngeal oor by a brous stalk. Typically, the stalk fragments, leaving the foramen caecum between the anterior and
