UNLABELLED
Sarcomas are infrequent and heterogeneous tumours. They represent 1-2% of all malignant neoplasms in adults and between 4% and 10% of head and neck cancers.
METHODS
The research was retrospective, descriptive, and cross-sectional.
RESULTS
A study population of 62 patients with a mean age of 44 years was obtained; the most frequent location was the soft tissues of the neck (25.3%) and the mean tumour size was 7.1 cm; the most frequent diagnosis was undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (25.5%) and the majority were stage III (41.4%). The lowest survival rates were associated with T2a and T2b tumours ( = 0.014), the presence of lymph node metastasis ( = 0.001), advanced stages ( = 0.003), and invasion of bone, blood vessels and/or nerves ( = 0.008).
CONCLUSIONS
Late diagnosis is the main factor associated with decreased survival in patients with head and neck sarcomas.
未标注
肉瘤是罕见且异质性的肿瘤。它们占成人所有恶性肿瘤的1%-2%，占头颈癌的4%-10%。
方法
本研究为回顾性、描述性横断面研究。
结果
获得了一个由62例患者组成的研究群体，平均年龄44岁；最常见的部位是颈部软组织（25.3%），平均肿瘤大小为7.1厘米；最常见的诊断是未分化多形性肉瘤（25.5%），大多数为III期（41.4%）。最低生存率与T2a和T2b肿瘤（P = 0.014）、存在淋巴结转移（P = 0.001）、晚期（P = 0.003）以及侵犯骨骼、血管和/或神经（P = 0.008）相关。
结论
诊断延迟是头颈肉瘤患者生存率降低的主要相关因素。
