The epidemiology, surgical management, and impact of margins in skull and mandibular osseous-site tumors.
2020
OBJECTIVE Tha aim of the study was to characterize the epidemiology and treatment outcomes of head and neck (HN) osseous-site tumors. METHODS Descriptive analyses and multivariate Cox regressions were performed to analyze the effect of surgery on overall survival (OS) utilizing the National Cancer Database (2004-2016). RESULTS Of 2449 tumors, surgery was utilized in 84.5% of cases. OS was worse in osteosarcoma (5-year OS: 53.4% [SE: 2.5%]) compared with cartilage tumors (5-year OS: 84.6% [SE: 1.8%]) (log-rank P 40%. These findings may be limited by inherent selection bias in the database.
