The clinical manifestation of CMCJ is nonspecific, which includes swelling, pain, mobile teeth and bleeding, etc. To develop the diagnosis and treatment of CMCJ. this article presents 2 cases of CMCJ treated in our hospital. Their clinical data, treatment and prognosis were analyzed retrospectively.展开更多

文摘目的 :回顾分析下颌骨中心性癌的临床、病理以及预后特点。方法 :纳入2010—2015年于我院口腔颌面-头颈肿瘤科接受手术治疗的下颌骨中心性癌患者的基本信息、临床治疗信息、影像学信息、病理学信息、随访记录,采用SPSS17.0软件包对数据进行统计学分析。结果 :最终纳入36例患者,其中34例随访信息完整。随访患者中,男22例,女12例;年龄31~60岁23例,>60岁11例;有既往吸烟史13例,有既往酗酒史4例。瘤体最大直径中位值为4 cm,瘤体最大直径≤4 cm 21例,瘤体最大直径>4 cm 13例。病理报告提示9例存在同期淋巴结转移,所有术区切缘均为阴性。28例接受术后放疗,9例在随访期间死于肿瘤局部复发或肿瘤远处转移。结论:手术是治疗下颌骨中心性癌的主要措施。瘤体位于下颌骨体部以外,同期肿瘤淋巴结转移的患者具有较高的术后肿瘤局部复发几率。既往酗酒史对肿瘤术后远处转移有一定促进作用,瘤体最大直径>4 cm的患者,总体预后较差。
