Abstract |
Although perineural invasion (PNI) has been a poor prognostic factor for head and neck cancers, few studies have focused on oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The independent significance of PNI in early T1-2 OSCC and the benefit of treatment modification based on PNI status have not been assessed. This study investigated the role of PNI in T1-2 OSCC patients, with focus on the controversial issues of neck management and postoperative adjuvant therapy. |
