Abstract

Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is the most common cancer in head and neck. Grading of NPC is based on keratinization, growth, and cell junction, and it can be classified into well differentiated, moderately differentiated, poorly differentiated, and undifferentiated. On the other hand, the staging of NPC based on UICC/AJCC staging system is divided into Stage I-IVC. This classification is based on TNM that is related to the ability of cancer cells to invade normal cells. This study was conducted from May to June 2017 in Oncology Clinic of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Department and Pathology Anatomy Department of Hasan Sadikin General Hospital. This is an analytical correlative study with cross sectional design. The data is collected retrospectively from medical records of patients who are diagnosed as NPC with adequate grading and staging data. Incomplete medical records, multiple carcinoma, and recurrent carcinoma are excluded from this study. We find out that among 51 samples, predominant is Stage IVB NPC (37.3%) and undifferentiated grade NPC (76.5%). Statistical analysis shows that there is no significant association between grading and staging (r=0.275; p=0.159).This study concludes that there is no association between histopathological grading and clinical staging in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Keywords: nasopharyngeal carcinoma, grading, staging

Abstract

Hypertension is a systemic disorder which included as one of the disease with highest prevalence in the world, particularly in Indonesia. One problem that is commonly faced by hypertension patients is administration of local anesthetic containing epinephrine 1:80.000 that needs to be given before undergoing tooth extraction procedure in primary health care setting. Administration of anesthetics is risky because it can cause sudden blood pressure increase that may cause complications. This study aims to observe the increased of blood pressure after being given local anesthetic containing epinephrine 1:80.000. This is a descriptive quantitative study conducted in April-August 2017 in Puskesmas Jatinangor. Blood pressure data is primary data, acquired from normotension and prehypertension patients aged 18-50 year who undergoes tooth extraction procedure. Blood pressure were measured before and after given local anesthetic. Result showed that there were increase in mean systolic blood pressure as much as 3.43 mmHg. Increase in systolic blood pressure occurs from the effect of epinephrine that causes constriction of the blood vessels. It is concluded that administration of local anesthetic containing epinephrine 1:80.000 before tooth extraction procedure is relatively safe and can be considered to be used in pre-hypertension patients, but not in higher hypertension stages.
