22 Our single-centre statistics on HPV positivity at Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong 252 patients with cancers of the oropharynx, tonsil and posterior 1/3 of tongue including tongue basetreated at Queen Mary Hospital between 2006 to 2017 Overall 25.4% Tonsil 67.2% (>95% are small T1 tumours) Oropharynx 21.1% Posterior 1/3 of tongue 19.5% HPV routinely checked for all oropharyngeal, tonsillar and post 1/3 tongue cancers

25 Workup for SCC HPV testing We check for both p16 (oncoprotein) and HPV DNA (past HPV infection) mrna E6/E7 expression should be gold standard but not routinely done due to expensive cost p16 positivity is regarded as HPV-positive tumours in our institution

26 Other important workup Blood for hematology, biochemistry, hepatitis B serology, creatinine clearance Panendoscopyto rule out occult and synchronous tumoursin upper aerodigestivetract (before and after treatment) Random biopsies for those patients with discernible primary on clinical and imaging examinations CT, MRI head and neck PET-CT scan (90% of our patients) Swallowing assessment Pure-tone audiographyif planned for chemo or chemort

27 Workup for radiotherapy

28 Methods of immobilisation Thermoplastic cast

29 Immobilisationwith thermoplastic cast

30 Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) Makes use of multiple beams directed to the tumours at different angles The intensity of radiation dose in each beam can be further modified so as to create a dose gradient to the tumourand the surrounding normal structures (i.e. higher dose to tumourand lower dose to normal structures)

31 IMRT (tumourcontouring)

32 PET/CT & MRI co-registration in contouring Primary tumour Left level II LN

33 PET/CT for diagnosis of subtle synchronous tumour Current retromolar trigone cancer Incidental finding of synchronous submucosal tongue base cancer

34 Conformal RT employs multiple radiation beams coming in from different angles but all aiming at tumour

35 IMRT (9-fields)

36 Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT)

37 MRI before brachytherapy Brachial plexus And subclavian vessels Brachial plexus And subclavian vessels

69 Summary Incidence of HPV-associated OPSCC in Hong Kong has been catching up with that in Western countries Multi-modality imaging (MRI and PET-CT scan) and panendoscopyare routine investigations for accurate RT planning Proficient knowledge in head and neck anatomy is essential to accurate target contouring in radiotherapy (either as adjuvant or radical definitive treatment)
