Moreira DGL, da Silva LP, de Morais EF, et al. - Via reviewing the clinical records of patients (n = 69), mean age at the time of diagnosis was 38.1 years old, with head and neck sarcomas, researchers examined the demographics, clinicopathological, treatment, and survival features of head and neck sarcomas diagnosed in a reference center in the Brazilian Northeast. According to this retrospective cohort study, rhabdomyosarcoma, dermatofibrosarcoma, and pleomorphic sarcoma were the most common histologic subtypes. A multivariate analysis showed that the anatomical site, treatment modality, histopathological diagnosis, and clinical stage of the disease were related to specific survival, reaching statistical significance. This investigation shows the effect of significant clinical-pathological parameters on the overall prognosis of head and neck sarcomas.
