Integrating Depth of Invasion in T Classification Improves the Prognostic Performance of the American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging System for Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: a Retrospective Multicenter Study
Abstract:Background: It has been recognized that depth of invasion (DOI) is closely associated with patient survival for all types of cancer. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal threshold and prognostic value in laryngeal squamous carcinoma (LSCC). Most importantly, we evaluated the prognostic performance of five candidate modified T-classification models in patients with LSCC. Methods: LSCC patients from Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital and Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences Cancer Hospita… Show more
