A total of 221 patients (155 males, 66 females; stage I, n ¾ 55; stage II, n ¾ 58; stage III, n ¾ 57; stage IV, n ¾ 51) with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity were studied. Tumor localization was as follows: cancer of the tongue, n ¾ 161; cancer of the oral floor, n =28; cancer of the hard palate, n ¾ 12; cancer of the buccal mucosa, n ¾ 11; and cancer of the gingiva, n ¾ 9. In order to compare the effect of different treatments, three major treatment groups were defined, namely a surgery group, a radiotherapy group and a combination treatment group. Five-year cumulative survival rates showed significant differences between stage classifications (stage I=91%, stage II=73%, stage III=63%, stage IV=47%; p <0.01) but not between tumor sites. The 5-year cumulative survival rate was highest for oral floor cancer (80%). In the early-cancer group, the 5-year cumulative survival rate for the surgery group (92%) was significantly higher ( p <0.05) than those for both the radiation (69%) and combination (71%) groups. In the advanced-cancer group, the 5-year cumulative survival rate for the surgery group (74%) was significantly higher ( p <0.05) than those for both the radiation (37%) and combination (51%) groups. No significant difference in regional control rates was observed between the treatment groups. Five-year regional control rates were 86% for cervical untreated patients with T1N0 tumors and 60% for cervical untreated patients with T2N0 tumors. Fourteen N0 cases were treated with neck dissection. Cervical metastasis was found pathologically in 2/14 (14%) of these cases. The 5-year survival rate for patients with cervical recurrences after primary tumor resection was 70% ( n ¾ 15). In contrast, the 5-year survival rate for patients with both primary tumor resection and neck dissection was 74% ( n ¾ 14) but no significant difference was observed between these 2 groups.rate . 相似文献

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is a rare head and neck cancer tumor, composed of both mucous and epidermoid cells. We retrospectively reviewed the case of 36 such patients hospitalized in the last 24 years (between 1978 and 2002) at Kurume University Hospital, focusing on origin, treatment, and treatment outcome. In this study, 33 patients undergoing currative treatment were studied in detail. Tumors originated in major salivary glands in 24 and in the oral cavity, paranasal cavity, and oropharynx in 3 each. Salivary gland carcinomas were graded, clinically and histopathologically based on the criteria of Goode et al. as follows: low (n = 3), intermediate (n = 3), and high (n = 18). All patients underwent radical surgery. Lymphnode metastasis was detected in 9, distant metastasis in 6 (lung: 4; liver: 1; bone: 1), and local recurrence in 5 patients. Lymphnode recurrence was detected in 3. Survival was calculated with Kaplan-Meier's methods. Five-year overall survival was 64%, i.e., 56% in salivary gland malignancy, 67% in oral cavity malignancy, 100% in paranasal cavity malignancy and 100% in oropharynx malignancy. Five-year survival was 76% in T2, 75% in T3, 51% in T4. Five-year survival in NO was 80% and 22% in N+ cases, with a statictically significant difference (p < 0.05). Five-year survival was 71% in stage I, 83% in stage II, and 54% in stage IV. Five-year survival in low and intermediate grade was 100%, whereas that in high grade was 43%. The 21 patients undergoing modified neck dissection has a 5-year survival of 52%. In 20 patients undergoing postoperative radiotherapy, 4 died of local recurrence. In 31 patients not undergoing chemotherapy, 6 died of distant metastasis. These results emphasize the necessity of radiotherapy and chemotherapy after surgical treatment for head and neck mucoepidermoid carcinoma. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Prognostic information is essential for optimal treatment of patients with head and neck cancer. We studied the relationship of class I and class II human leukocyte antigens (HLA) on prognosis in patients with head and neck cancer. METHODS: HLA-A, -B, -C and -DR antigens were determined in 209 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx. The patients were subjected to follow-up investigations for a period of 5 years. RESULTS: Five-year survival rates in relation to tumor stage varied between 86% for stage I tumors and 28% for stage IV tumors (P <.0001, log-rank trend test). The EBA-A11 antigen showed a significant negative correlation with survival. While the 5-year survival of 124 HELA-A11-negative patients was 58%, none of the 17 HLA-A11-positive patients survived 5 years (P = .0002). A significant negative correlation with survival was also observed for HLA-DR6. While the 5-year survival rate of 106 HLA-DR6-negative patients was 60%, it was only 40% in 35 HLA-DR6-positive patients (P = .0313). CONCLUSIONS: If the findings of our study can be confirmed, HLA-A11 and HLA-DR6 might become clinically important supplemental prognostic markers in head and neck cancer. 相似文献

The outcome of 91 patients (69 males, 22 females; age range 16-82 years) with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated in our hospital between 1971 and 1999 was evaluated. Factors that appeared to influence prognosis were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The cause-specific cumulative 5-year survival rate for the entire study population was 61.2%. The 1997 International Union Against Cancer classification was used for disease staging. The 5-year survival rates were as follows: 66.7% (n = 3) for Stage I; 100% (n = 2) for Stage IIA; 90.9% (n = 11) for Stage IIB; 78.8% (n = 25) for Stage III; 53.0% (n = 29) for Stage IVA; 37.5% (n = 16) for Stage IVB; and 20.0% (n = 5) for Stage IVC. The disease-free cumulative 3-year survival rates of the patients classified based on initial therapy were as follows: radiation alone, 50.0% (n = 28); combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy that included an undefined anti-cancer drug, 67.2% (n = 39); combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy that included carboplatin (CBDCA), 92.3% (n = 19). These results showed a statistically significant difference (p = 0.043; log-rank test). Stage IVC patients were excluded from the analysis. We conclude that combined therapy, including chemotherapy with CBDCA, is necessary for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In terms of radiation therapy, a field covering the bilateral cervical regions seemed to produce favorable results, even if cervical node metastasis was not confirmed by palpation at the first hospital visit.

Eighty-eight patients with hypopharyngeal cancer who received chemoradiotherapy as the primary treatment between 1979 and 1997 were investigated. Forty-six patients who received surgery as the primary treatment were analyzed as a control group. There were no statistically significant differences regarding TN classification, tumor stage, tumor site, age or sex between the radiation and surgery groups. The 5-year cumulative survival rate of primary chemoradiotherapy was 47% and this did not differ significantly from that for the primary surgery group. The larynx was preserved in 74% of cases in the primary chemoradiotherapy group, a far better preservation rate than that in the surgery group. After primary chemoradiotherapy, complete remission (CR) was observed in 59% of cases and the average period of CR was 38 months. Among patients with residual tumor, a salvage operation was employed in 31 cases, 13 patients refused to receive surgery and 8 were inoperable. A salvage operation was performed in 35% of all cases and the 5-year cumulative survival rate was 50%. Based on the 5-year survival, primary CR, salvage and laryngeal preservation rates, we conclude that chemoradiotherapy is a good primary treatment for hypopharyngeal cancer 相似文献

Between 1986 and 1997, 72 patients (47 males, 25 females) with previously untreated tongue cancer were treated at our institution (surgery: 67, interstitial radiotherapy: 3, palliative therapy: 2). These patients, especially T2 tongue cancer, were classified into two groups (early T2: < or = 3 cm, late T2: > 3 cm) according to the maximum diameter of the primary lesion, and were analyzed for treatment outcome and cervical lymphnode metastasis. (1) The cumulative 5-year survival rates were 65.9% for all cases, 95.0% for T1 cases, 77.5% (94.1% for early T2, 59.7% for late T2) for T2 cases, 24.3% for T3 cases (4-year survival rate), and 0% for T4 cases. (2) The cumulative 5-year survival rates were 90.8% for pN- patients and 21.7% for pN+ patients and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05%). In prognosis, pN- patients were better than pN+ patients. Since the N factor was related to the cause of death in 87.5% (7/8) of T2 tongue cancer, control of regional lymph node involvement was the most important prognostic factor. (3) The overall incidence of cervical lymph node metastasis (pN+ or secondary nodal metastasis) was 35.3% for early T2 and 750% for late T2. The control rate of secondary nodal metastasis was 75.0% for early T2 and 33.3% for late T2. Partial glossectomy only (observation for occult lymphnode metastasis) is recommended for treatment of T2N0, whereas glossectomy with selective neck dissection by the pull-through method is recommended for treatment of late T2. 相似文献

目的 分析早期舌体鳞癌的预后相关因素及颈淋巴处理方式对生存率的影响,探讨早期舌癌的颈部治疗策略.方法 回顾性分析1994年1月至2003年12月期间152例经手术治疗的早期舌癌患者的临床及随访资料,任意分为颈部观察组与颈清扫组两大组,其中颈清扫组分为肩胛舌骨肌上清扫组和全颈清扫组(即全颈清扫和改良颈清扫).分析早期舌癌预后的临床病理因素和颈部治疗与否及不同的颈淋巴处理方式对颈部复发转移和生存率的影响.结果 全组病例随访5年以上或至患者死亡,5年随访率为94.7%.颈部观察组32例与颈清扫组120例的颈部复发率分别为34.4%和14.2%,差异有统计学意义(χ2=6.865,P<0.01);Kaplan-Meier法统计5年生存率分别为68%和79%,差异无统计意义(χ2=1.699,P>0.05).肩胛舌骨肌上清扫组与全颈清扫组的颈部转移复发率及5年生存率差异均无统计学意义(P值均>0.05).病理诊断有淋巴结转移和治疗后颈部复发转移患者的5年生存率明显低于无淋巴结转移和治疗后无颈部复发转移者,差异均有统计学意义(P值均<0.01).结论 隐匿性淋巴转移和复发是影响早期舌癌预后最主要的因素.肩胛舌骨肌上淋巴清扫虽然不能提高5年生存率,但能明显地降低颈部复发率.鉴于早期舌癌的隐匿性高且颈部复发挽救率低,建议对未过中线的早期舌癌应行同侧Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ区的清扫,以减少颈部复发率. 相似文献

The records of 87 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx, treated between 1971 and 1998 at Kitasato University Hospital, were reviewed with the aim of investigating further directions for oropharyngeal cancer treatment. The patients were divided into four major treatment groups: a radiotherapy group; an operation group; a simultaneous chemoradiotherapy group; and a combination treatment group. The 5-year cumulative survival rates for Stages I-IV were 75%, 78%, 68% and 41%, respectively. None of the T4 cases survived for >5 years. The survival rates of patients with anterior and posterior wall cancers were higher than those with lateral and superior wall cancers. All patients in the operation group survived for 5 years. The survival rates for the combination treatment, radiotherapy and chemoradiotherapy groups were 80%, 57% and 52%, respectively. The 5-year cumulative local control rates for T2-T4 tumors were 61%, 58% and 0%, respectively. The combination therapy (80%) and chemoradiotherapy (66%) groups had significantly higher local control rates than the radiation group (33%). The 5-year cumulative regional control rate according to N classification was 80%, except for N2 lymph nodes, for which only 60% of patients were free of regional recurrences. Approximately 15% of patients with oropharyngeal cancer had either distant metastases or double cancer. We conclude from this review that simultaneous chemoradiotherapy is a good initial therapy for Stages T1-T3 oropharyngeal cancer. However, for T4 tumors, further combinations of both chemoradiotherapy and surgery and the development of new anticancer drugs for use in chemoradiotherapy, immunotherapy or gene therapy may be needed. 相似文献

A high occult metastatic rate and a high regional recurrence rate are reported among patients with early oral squamous carcinoma; however, considerable controversy exists regarding the merits of elective neck dissection in this group. The purpose of the present study was to examine the influence of various histological factors on the risk of occult neck disease, neck conversion and recurrence among 63 patients with stage I and II oral cancer. Tumour thickness (P = 0.0175) and size (P = 0.023) were both significantly predictive of outcome. Among tumours of a given thickness, those with infiltrative margins also showed a tendency towards a poorer outcome; however, this was not significant (P = 0.0768). Patients undergoing elective neck dissection with pathological evidence of cervical metastases or with subsequent neck recurrence had a better 3-year survival (55%) than those developing neck conversion after primary neck observation (20%). Our data would suggest considering tumours greater than 5 mm in thickness or with infiltrative margins as potential candidates for elective neck treatment. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Squamous cell carcinomas of the oropharynx are aggressive tumours usually diagnosed at advanced stage. Their optimal treatment has not been established. The aim of this study was to compare the oncological and functional outcomes in patients with carcinomas of the oropharynx treated by radiotherapy (with chemotherapy in advanced stages) vs surgery (with radiotherapy in advanced stages). METHODS: A retrospective study on 50 patients with squamous cell cancer of the oropharynx treated by radiotherapy (with or without chemotherapy) at our institution between 1998 and 2008 was carried out. The oncological and functional results were compared with patients with same cancer location and stage treated by surgery (with or without radiotherapy). In both groups, the patients were classified as follows: 10% Stage I, 12% Stage II, 16% Stage III, 48% Stage IVa and 14% Stage IVb. RESULTS: The 5-year disease-specific survival was 33% in the radiotherapy group and 52% in the surgical group (P=.17). Five-year disease-specific survival for Stage I and II patients was 82% in the radiotherapy group and 70% in the surgical group. In Stage III and IV disease, 5-year disease-specific survival was higher in the surgical group (47% vs 17%). The functional results were similar; anatomical and functional preservation of the larynx was higher in the radiotherapy group but the successful return to oral food intake was higher in the surgical group. CONCLUSIONS: The prognosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx is poor. Oncological results in Stages I and II were similar for radiotherapy and surgical treatments. In advanced stages, the prognosis was better in patients treated by surgery with or without radiotherapy. Functional results were similar in both treatment modalities. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the impact of comorbidities, symptoms, and patients' characteristics on the 5-year overall survival of patients who underwent surgery for cancer of the oral tongue or floor of the mouth and to improve the survival estimates by the creation of a new staging system. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A cohort of 110 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral tongue or floor of the mouth, who were admitted to a tertiary cancer hospital from January 1, 1990, to December 31, 1994, and who underwent surgery was studied. Multivariate analysis distinguished that patients' characteristics, symptoms, and comorbidities have a significant impact on 5-year overall survival. This functional severity index combined with the TNM stage created the extended clinical severity staging system. RESULTS: The 5-year overall survival was 33.4%. Survival by TNM cancer stage was 64.6% (stage I), 67.5% (stage II), 28.9% (stage III), and 13.1% (stage IV) (chi(2) = 22.88, P<.001). When patients were categorized according to the extended clinical severity staging system, survival was as follows: 74.0% (stage 1), 47.1% (stage 2), 28.6% (stage 3), and 8.4% (stage 4) (chi(2) = 38.67, P<.001). CONCLUSION: Clinical variables have a prognostic impact on oral cancer that is surgically treated, and the consistency of results confirms that survival estimates can be improved by the addition of these elements to the TNM classification, creating a more powerful and precise system in the determination of a prognosis. 相似文献

Objectives
Although T stage is an important prognostic tool for oral tongue cancer, it fails to define the depth of invasion and true three-dimensional volume of primary tumors. The purpose of this paper is to determine the relations between tumor volume and lymph node metastasis and survival in early oral tongue cancer.Methods
Forty-seven patients with T1-2 tongue cancer were included. Tumor volumes were measured by the computerized segmentation of T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging.Results
The overall average tumor volume was 27.7 cm3 (range, 1.4 to 60.1 cm3). A significant positive correlation was found between tumor volume and pathological T stage, depth of invasion, and cervical lymph node metastasis (P<0.001, P<0.001, and P=0.002, respectively). When the tumor volume exceeded 20 cm3, the cervical metastasis rate increased to 69.2%. The overall 5-year disease specific survival rate was 80%. There was a statistically significant association between large tumor volume (≥20 cm3) and the 5-year disease-specific survival (P=0.046).Conclusion
Tumor volume larger than 20 cm3 was associated with greater risk cervical lymph node metastasis and poor 5-year disease-specific survival rate in early oral tongue cancer patients. 相似文献15.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the role of chemotherapy in advanced cancer of the oral cavity by assessing its influence on the survival of patients receiving palliative care and its ability to improve the expectations of curative surgery.Patients and methodNinety-nine consecutive patients were analyzed to assess their course, the prognostic factors for tumour progression, and overall survival after treatment with two different chemotherapy regimes: cisplatin plus bleomycin (n=45) or cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil (n=52). For the analysis, patients were split into groups depending on the treatment intention: palliative (n=41) or neo-adjuvant (n=56).ResultsThe response rate was 56.7%. The response was greater in the neo-adjuvant group (73.2%) than among the palliative patients (36.6%) (P<0.001); greater with the bleomycin regime (73.3%) than with 5-fluorouracil (44.2%) (P=0.003); and greater in patients with stage III (77.8%) than stage IV (50%) (P=0.021).Survival was higher among patients receiving bleomycin than in those on 5-fluorouracil (P=0.019) and among those with stage III than stage IV (P=0.013). In the palliative treatment group, the response was associated with greater survival (P<0.001).In the neo-adjuvant group, 30 patients (53.6%) underwent surgery, with complete resection in 26 of them (86.7%). Sixteen cases (61.5%) presented recurrence. Chemotherapy response was not associated with operability. Survival was higher in the group with complete tumour resection (P<0.041).ConclusionsThe response to chemotherapy in oral cavity tumours was greater in patients with stage III and in those receiving bleomycin. Chemotherapy may improve survival in palliative cases. In neo-adjuvant cases, no great influence was seen in the conversion of doubtful cases into candidates for surgery. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: The best therapeutic approach for the treatment of stage IV glottic carcinoma is controversial. STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective study. METHODS: A retrospective study of Tumor Research Project data was performed using patients with stage IV glottic squamous cell carcinoma treated with curative intent by five different treatment modalities from 1955 to 1998 at Washington University School of Medicine and Barnes-Jewish Hospital (St. Louis, MO). RESULTS: Ninety-six patients with stage IV glottic carcinoma were treated by five modalities: total laryngectomy (TL) (n = 13), total laryngectomy with neck dissection (TL/ND) (n = 18), radiation therapy alone (RT) (n = 7) (median dose, 69.5 Gy), total laryngectomy combined with radiation therapy (TL/RT) (n = 10), and total laryngectomy and neck dissection combined with radiation therapy (TL/ND/RT) (n = 48). The overall 5-year observed survival (OS) rate was 39%, and the 5-year disease-specific survival (DSS) rate was 45%. The 5-year DSS rates for the individual treatment modalities included the following: TL, 58.3%; TL/ND, 42.9%; RT, 50.0%; TL/RT, 30.0%; and TL/ND/RT, 43.9%. There was no significant difference in DSS for any individual treatment modality (P =.759). The overall locoregional control rate was 69% (66 of 96). The overall recurrence rate was 39% with recurrence at the primary site and in the neck at 19% and 17%, respectively. Recurrence was not related to treatment modality. The 5-year DSS after treatment of locally recurrent cancer (salvage rate) was 30% (3 of 10) and for recurrent neck disease (28 of 67) was 42%. The incidence of delayed regional metastases was 28%; of distant metastasis, 12%; and of second primary cancers, 9%. There was no statistically significant difference in survival between node-negative (N0) necks initially treated (5-y DSS, 31%) versus N0 necks observed and later treated if necessary (5-y DSS, 44%) (P =.685). CONCLUSION: The five treatment modalities had statistically similar survival, recurrence, and complication rates. The overall 5-year DSS for patients with stage IV glottic carcinoma was 45%, and the OS was 39%. The cumulative disease-specific survival (CDSS) was 0.4770 with a mean survival of 10.1 years and a median survival of 3.9 years. Patients younger than age 55 years had better survival (DSS) than patients 56 years of age or older (P =.0002). Patients with early T stage had better survival than patients with more advanced T stage (P =.04). Tumor recurrence at the primary site (P =.0001) and in the neck (P =.014) and distant metastasis (P =.0001) had a deleterious effect on survival. Tumor recurrence was not related to treatment modality. Patients with clear margins of resection had a statistically significant improved survival (DSS and CDSS) compared with patients with close or involved margins (P =.0001). Post-treatment quality of life was not significantly related to treatment modality. Patients whose N0 neck was treated with observation and appropriate treatment for subsequent neck disease had statistically similar survival compared with patients whose N0 neck was treated prophylactically at the time of treatment of the primary. A minimum of 7 years of follow-up is recommended for early identification of recurrent disease, second primary tumors, and distant metastasis. None of the standard treatment modalities currently employed has a statistical advantage regarding survival, recurrence, complications, or quality of life. 相似文献

The outcome of 91 patients (69 males, 22 females; age range 16-82 years) with nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated in our hospital between 1971 and 1999 was evaluated. Factors that appeared to influence prognosis were assessed using the Kaplan -Meier method. The cause-specific cumulative 5-year survival rate for the entire study population was 61.2%. The 1997 International Union Against Cancer classification was used for disease staging. The 5-year survival rates were as follows: 66.7% ( n ¾ 3) for Stage I; 100% ( n ¾ 2) for Stage IIA; 90.9% ( n ¾ 11) for Stage IIB; 78.8% ( n ¾ 25) for Stage III; 53.0% ( n ¾ 29) for Stage IVA; 37.5% ( n ¾ 16) for Stage IVB; and 20.0% ( n ¾ 5) for Stage IVC. The disease-free cumulative 3-year survival rates of the patients classified based on initial therapy were as follows: radiation alone, 50.0% ( n ¾ 28); combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy that included an undefined anti-cancer drug, 67.2% ( n ¾ 39); combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy that included carboplatin (CBDCA), 92.3% ( n ¾ 19). These results showed a statistically significant difference ( p ¾ 0.043; log-rank test). Stage IVC patients were excluded from the analysis. We conclude that combined therapy, including chemotherapy with CBDCA, is necessary for the treatment of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. In terms of radiation therapy, a field covering the bilateral cervical regions seemed to produce favorable results, even if cervical node metastasis was not confirmed by palpation at the first hospital visit. 相似文献

CONCLUSIONS: In the past 20 years, the level of laryngeal carcinoma treatment in our country has been significantly improved. Early diagnosis is the key for increasing the ratio of larynx preservation surgeries and improving survival rates. The main causes of death within 5 years are local recurrence and metastasis. OBJECTIVE: To describe the main treatment methods for laryngeal carcinoma in China in the 1980s and 1990s and their prospective effects and investigate the prognostic factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective investigation was performed on the 1115 laryngeal carcinoma patients receiving treatment in the department of ENT of the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University during 1983-1996 and the survival rates and causes of death were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: There were 780 patients surviving for more than 5 years, 260 dead patients, and 75 patients lost to follow-up. According to the cumulative survival rate curve, the 5-year survival rate was 77% (94% for stage I, 89% for stage II, 82% for stage III, and 66% for stage IV). Glottic cancer has the highest 5-year survival rate, followed by supraglottic cancer, subglottic cancer, and transglottic cancer. The 5-year survival rate of patients receiving partial laryngectomy was 85%, while the 5-year survival rate of those receiving total laryngectomy was 68%. The leading causes of death within 5 years were local recurrence and metastasis (70%), and the causes of death were unknown in 14% of cases. 相似文献

One-hundred and four patients with previously untreated tongue cancer seen in our department between 1986 and 1998 were enrolled in a clinical study. The DNA ploidy patterns observed in fresh frozen specimens obtained from 41 patients were analyzed, and prognostic factors were investigated. According to the TNM classification (UICC 1997), 43 patients had stage I tumors, 29 had stage II tumors, 17 had stage III tumors, and 15 had stage IV tumors. The 5-year cause-specific survival rates for each stage were 94.7%, 64.4%, 50.0% and 45.7%, respectively. The most frequent cause of death associated with the original disease was the recurrence of the disease in cervical lymph nodes (19/27, 70.4%). The occurrence of late cervical metastasis was high among patients with a T2N0 disease. Patients with stage II disease should undergo elective neck dissection or be carefully monitored using ultrasonography. Among the 41 cases in which the DNA ploidy pattern was analyzed, diploid patterns were found in 30 cases and aneuploid patterns were found in 11. The 5-year cause-specific survival rate and the 5-year locoregional control rate were significantly lower for the aneuploid cases (18.2%, 38.9%) than for the diploid cases (66.5%, 69.8%) (p = 0.0003, p = 0.0339). The incidence of distant metastasis was significantly higher among the aneuploid cases (6/11, 54.5%) than among the diploid cases (3/30, 10.0%) (p = 0.0058). The ploidy pattern, as determined by flow cytometric DNA analysis, may reflect the malignancy grade of tongue cancers. 相似文献
