Does the addition of mucosal ☢️ impact outcomes in patients with #
hncsm# carcinoma of unknown primary (CUP) site?
This retrospective analysis compared outcomes in pts w/ SCC CUP treated with (n=46) and without (n=88) 50 Gy ☢️ to putative mucosal sites. From mFU 72 mo:
➡️ 5yr OS with and without mucosal ☢️was similar: 56.1% and 57.5%, respectively (p=0.899)
➡️ Tumor recurrences with and without mucosal ☢️ were similar: 32.6% and 27.3%, respectively (p=0.591)
➡️ All mucosal recurrences (9.7%) occurred in current 🚬 at >3 yrs post initial diagnosis, suggestive of 2nd primary tumor
