Abstract

In 1997, the U.I.C.C. (International Union against Cancer) modified the previous TNM stage grouping published in 1987. In the present study, TANIS and TNM '97 systems were compared in order to evaluate their prognostic ability. Data from 164 patients affected by primary squamous cell carcinoma cancers of the oral cavity (n=100) and oropharynx (n=64) were analyzed by means of survival analyses. Both systems showed a significant correlation with survival rate. TANIS yielded better results in association with the survival rate as compared with TNM '97.

摘要

1997年，国际抗癌联盟（U.I.C.C.）对1987年发布的先前TNM分期分组进行了修订。在本研究中，对TANIS和TNM '97系统进行了比较，以评估它们的预后能力。通过生存分析对164例原发性口腔（n = 100）和口咽（n = 64）鳞状细胞癌患者的数据进行了分析。两个系统均与生存率显示出显著相关性。与TNM '97相比，TANIS与生存率相关的结果更好。
