“…This retrospective study focused on the clinical outcomes, prognostic factors, failure patterns, and adverse events in patients with major SGC treated with surgery and postoperative IMRT. Similar to that reported in the literature [3,6,7], our study showed that ACC was the most common histology, followed by LELC. As histology is an important prognostic factor, for SDC, adenocarcinoma and undifferentiated carcinoma have worse prognosis [8,9], we performed an ACC subgroup analysis.…”

SDC is extremely aggressive, and postoperative radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy are not effective (11,12).…”
