This retrospective study of 173 Mongolian oral cancer patients found that male sex, lymph node metastases, and treatment were associated with increased cancer recurrence.

This study investigated risk factors for recurrence among 173 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the mouth in Mongolia treated at the National Cancer Center of Mongolia between 2008 and 2017, using a retrospective cohort design based on medical records. The analysis found that 63.0% of patients were men and that men had a 3.8-fold higher risk of recurrence than women (OR=3.79, CI=1.24–11.57). Lymph node metastases and the type of treatment were also linked to recurrence, though the abstract does not specify the magnitude or statistical details for these associations. This paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

Introduction: In Mongolia, there has been limited research on the posttreatment survival rate, recurrence, and occurrence of oral cancer. The goal of this study is to investigate the risk factors that contribute to the recurrence of oral cancer to increase survival rates, facilitate early detection, and improve treatment accuracy. Method: A retrospective cohort method was used, with medical records from 173 patients diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the mouth at the National Cancer Center of Mongolia's Department of Head and Neck Surgery, Radio, and Chemotherapy between 2008 and 2017. The Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences' Research Ethics Committee approved the project. Results: The findings revealed that 109 cases (63.0%) were men and 64 (37.0%) were females, with a large proportion of patients (28.3%) falling between the ages of 61 and 70. Men had a 3.8 times higher risk of cancer recurrence than women (OR=3.79, CI=1.24-11.57). Furthermore, lymph node metastases and treatment were linked to oral cancer recurrence. Conclusion: This study offers light on the factors that influence the recurrence of oral cancer, giving useful insights for improving patient outcomes through early detection and proper treatment.
