Abstract
- OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS For early-stage oral tongue carcinoma and carcinoma in situ (ESOTCCIS), we evaluated patient-reported quality-of-life (QOL) outcomes following resection with primary closure (R-PC). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review at an academic cancer center. METHODS Thirty-nine ESOTCCIS patients (Tis, T1, T2) who underwent R-PC without radiation completed the University of Washington Quality of Life Questionnaire Version 4 (UW-QOL) at least 6 months since R-PC (mean = 2.39 years; range = 0.5-6.7 years). We compared UW-QOL scores for pain, swallowing, chewing, speech, and taste to established normative population scores. Multivariable regression analysis evaluated factors associated with QOL impairment. RESULTS ESOTCCIS patients who underwent R-PC in comparison to the normative population reported significantly worse mean speech (87.7 vs. 98, P
