Head & Neck Apr 20, 2019
Oliver JR, et al. - Researchers delineated 2566 cases of age less than 40 years and 20,664 candidates of age between 40 to 70 years to quantify the survival of all oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma cases. They reported that 59.8% were male candidates, 72.4% of cases with stage I-II and 13,973 subjects were treated by surgery alone. They recorded a higher survival in participants under 40 (79.6% vs 69.5%). A 9% higher 5-year survival (77.1% vs 68.2%) in patients under 40 was reported in propensity score-matched analysis (n = 2928) controlling for all 10 significant factors in multivariate regression.
