Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated the results of surgical treatment and postoperative radiotherapy and prognostic factors in patients with primary tongue carcinoma. Patients and Methods: The study included 60 patients (31 males, 29 females; median age 54 years; range 22 to 82 years) who underwent surgery and postoperative radiotherapy for oral tongue cancer. Tumor staging based on the AJCC-1997 criteria was as follows: stage I (n=1), stage II (n=21), stage III (n=12), and stage IVA (n=26). Surgery included hemiglossectomy (n=46, 76%), partial (n=13, 22%) and total (n=1, 2%) glossectomy. Neck dissection was performed in 47 patients (78%). Radiotherapy dose was generally 6000 cGy/30 fr. The median follow-up was 51 months (range 5 to 180 months). Results: The five-year overall and relapse-free survival rates were 50% and 47%, respectively. Survival at five years was 70% for stage l-lll, and 20% for stage IVA. Most of the relapses occurred in the first two years after treatment. Recurrences were encountered in 31 patients (52%). The median survival after recurrence was eight months (range 1 to 53 months). In multivariate analyses, significant prognostic factors for overall survival and locoregional control were tumor size, stage, N stage, extracapsular lymph node spread, and total duration of radiotherapy. Complications were within acceptable limits. Conclusion: Postoperative radiotherapy should be standard for patients with stage III and IVA tongue cancer.

Özet

Amaç: Cerrahi ve cerrahi sonrası radyoterapi uygulanan primer dil kanserli hastalarda tedavi sonuçları değerlendirildi ve prognostik faktörler araştırıldı. Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya ameliyat sonrasında radyoterapi uygulanan dil kanserli 60 hasta (31 erkek, 29 kadın; medyan yaş 54; dağılım 22-82) alındı. Hastaların tümör evresine (AJCC-1997) göre dağılımı, evre I (n=1), evre II (n=21), evre III (n=12), evre IVA (n=26) şeklindeydi. Cerrahi tedavide 46 hastaya (%76) hemiglossektomi, 13 hastaya (%22) parsiyel, bir hastaya (%2) total glossektomi, 47 hastada (%78) boyun diseksiyonu uygulandı. Işın dozu genellikle 6000 cGy/30 fr idi. Medyan takip süresi 51 ay (dağılım 5-180 ay) idi. Bulgular: Tedavi sonrası beş yıllık genel ve hastalıksız sağkalım oranları sırasıyla %50 ve %47 idi. Beş yıllık genel sağkalım evre l-lll'de %70, evre IVA'da %20 bulundu. Yinelemeler çoğunlukla ilk iki yılda görüldü. Toplam 31 hastada (%52) yineleme görüldü. Yineleme sonrası medyan sağkalım sekiz ay (dağılım 1-53 ay) idi. Çokdeğişkenli analizde, tümör çapı, evre, N evresi, kapsüler invazyon varlığı ve toplam radyoterapi süresi yerel-bölgesel kontrol ve genel sağkalım için anlamlı prognostik faktörler olarak belirlendi. Tedaviye bağlı komplikasyonlar kabul edilebilir sınırlar içinde kaldı. Sonuç: Ameliyat sonrası radyoterapi evre III ve IVA dil kanseri olgularında standart olarak uygulanmalıdır.
