Marginal mandibulectomy for lateral sulcus tumours.
European Journal of Surgical Oncology 2004 September
OBJECTIVE: To report a retrospective series of marginal mandibulectomy for cancers of oral cavity, with special reference to squamous cancers of gingival buccal complex.
METHODS: Retrospective record review of 107 patients who underwent marginal mandibulectomy between 1994 and 2001.
RESULTS: Eighty-three marginal mandibulectomies were done for gingivo-buccal complex cancers. Local failure rate was 16%. The 2-year and 5-year disease free survival rates were 69 and 60%, respectively. The local recurrence free survival at the end of 2 and 5 years were 79 and 70%, respectively.
CONCLUSION: In carefully selected patients, marginal mandibulectomy is an oncologically safe procedure to achieve good local control.
