Abstract

Lymph node involvement has been shown to be a critical prognostic factor in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Lymph node yield (LNY), which is the total number of lymph nodes retrieved, and lymph node ratio (LNR), which is the ratio of positive lymph nodes to the total removed, are measurable indicators with promising prognostic significance. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of LNY and LNR in predicting disease-free survival in patients with HNSCC undergoing

头颈部鳞状细胞癌患者淋巴结产量和淋巴结比例的预后价值：一项回顾性队列研究

淋巴结受累已被证明是头颈部鳞状细胞癌（HNSCC）的一个关键预后因素。淋巴结清扫率（Lymph node yield， LNY）即淋巴结清扫总数，淋巴结清扫率（Lymph node ratio， LNR）即阳性淋巴结与清扫总数之比是可测量的指标，具有良好的预后意义。本研究旨在评估LNY和LNR在预测HNSCC患者无病生存中的预后意义
