Résumé

Head and neck soft tissue sarcoma (HNSTS), rare and heterogeneous malignancies, are treated primarily treated with surgery. However, prognostic indicators that might guide HNSTS management are poorly defined. Main purpose of this study is to find variables linked to HNSTS patients' prognosis. Assessment of the TNM system is the secondary purpose. This study is a retrospective cohort performed on HNSTS patients who received surgery at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Head and Neck Oncology, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University from January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2014. Strict inclusion criteria were applied. The predictor variable was a set of heterogenous risk factors and were grouped into the following categories: demographic (age and gender), clinical (primary tumor, tumor region, tumor size, and TNM stage), and treatment (surgical margin, treatment therapy). The primary outcome variables were time to 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS). The secondary outcome variables were time to 5-year tumor local recurrence and metastasis. Not applicable. Descriptive statistical analysis was carried out. Pearson χ The sample was composed of 100 subjects with a mean age of 43.47 (standard deviation: 16.15) years old and 56 (56%) were male. The 5-year DSF and OS were 59 and 60%, respectively. Variables associated with poor DFS and OS were age > 60 years (P = .003, hazard ratio [HR]: 4.95, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.71,14.1; P = .005, HR: 4.48, 95% CI: 1.57,12.8) and non-primary tumors (P<.001, HR: 8.41, 95% CI: 2.85,24.8; P = .002, HR: 6.90, 95% CI: 2.46,19.4), respectively. Maxilla and skull base cancers had local recurrence (12/18, 66.7%) more common. T2 (TNM) tumor displayed higher tendency in DFS(P = .009, HR: 4.20, 95% CI: 1.42,12.4) and metastasis(P = .09, HR: 3.51, 95% CI: 0.82,15.0) than T1 (TNM) tumors. Poor prognosis is associated with maxilla and skull base tumors as well as patients over 60 years. TNM stage appeared to have limited prognostic significance.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Head and neck soft tissue sarcoma (HNSTS), rare and heterogeneous malignancies, are treated primarily treated with surgery. However, prognostic indicators that might guide HNSTS management are poorly defined.
PURPOSE OBJECTIVE
Main purpose of this study is to find variables linked to HNSTS patients' prognosis. Assessment of the TNM system is the secondary purpose.
STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, SAMPLE UNASSIGNED
This study is a retrospective cohort performed on HNSTS patients who received surgery at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Head and Neck Oncology, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University from January 1, 2006, to December 31, 2014. Strict inclusion criteria were applied.
PREDICTOR VARIABLE METHODS
The predictor variable was a set of heterogenous risk factors and were grouped into the following categories: demographic (age and gender), clinical (primary tumor, tumor region, tumor size, and TNM stage), and treatment (surgical margin, treatment therapy).
MAIN OUTCOME VARIABLE(S) UNASSIGNED
The primary outcome variables were time to 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS). The secondary outcome variables were time to 5-year tumor local recurrence and metastasis.
COVARIATES UNASSIGNED
Not applicable.
ANALYSES METHODS
Descriptive statistical analysis was carried out. Pearson χ
RESULTS RESULTS
The sample was composed of 100 subjects with a mean age of 43.47 (standard deviation: 16.15) years old and 56 (56%) were male. The 5-year DSF and OS were 59 and 60%, respectively. Variables associated with poor DFS and OS were age > 60 years (P = .003, hazard ratio [HR]: 4.95, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.71,14.1; P = .005, HR: 4.48, 95% CI: 1.57,12.8) and non-primary tumors (P<.001, HR: 8.41, 95% CI: 2.85,24.8; P = .002, HR: 6.90, 95% CI: 2.46,19.4), respectively. Maxilla and skull base cancers had local recurrence (12/18, 66.7%) more common. T2 (TNM) tumor displayed higher tendency in DFS(P = .009, HR: 4.20, 95% CI: 1.42,12.4) and metastasis(P = .09, HR: 3.51, 95% CI: 0.82,15.0) than T1 (TNM) tumors.
CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE CONCLUSIONS
Poor prognosis is associated with maxilla and skull base tumors as well as patients over 60 years. TNM stage appeared to have limited prognostic significance.
