ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
This study examines oncologic outcomes in patients with HPV-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV(+)OPSCC) who had evidence of gross cranial nerve invasion (CNI) identified at the time of surgery. STUDYDESIGN:
Retrospective cohort study comparing demographics, clinical features, and outcomes of HPV(+)OPSCC patients with and without gross CNI.METHODS:
Patients with biopsy proven HPV(+)OPSCC involving the base of tongue, tonsil, or unknown primary site, who underwent surgery as a part of their treatment between 1/1/2006-12/31/2020 (n = 874), were included in this study. Gross CNI was identified during operative intervention (n = 36). Statistical analyses were performed using SAS version 9.4 and R version 3.6.2. P-values <0.05 were considered statistically significant.RESULTS:
HPV(+)OPSCC patients with gross CNI were nearly 5 times as likely to suffer death by cancer (HR = 5.41, 95% CI 2.51 to 11.67, p < 0.0001), over 4 times as likely to see disease progression (HR = 4.25, 95% CI 2.31 to 7.84, p < 0.0001), and nearly 5 times as likely to experience metastasis (HR = 4.46, 95% CI 2.20 to 9.06, p < 0.0001) when compared to patients without CNI. Patients with gross CNI had significantly lower overall survival, cancer-specific survival, progression-free survival, and distant-metastasis free survival (p < 0.0001). Patients with gross CNI were significantly more likely to present with higher clinical N stage, higher pathological N stage and extracapsular spread than patients without gross CNI.CONCLUSIONS:
Our findings indicate that the presence of CNI is associated with significantly poorer oncologic outcomes in HPV(+)OPSCC patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3 Laryngoscope, 134170-177, 2024.Palavras-chave
