本文报告2,058例头颈部鳞状细胞癌。其中35%的患者在发病时颈部有结节。结节的水平由原发肿瘤决定：其他因素，如T或N状态，对结节水平没有显著的预测作用。结节水平与年龄、一般情况、结节状态和原发肿瘤的部位一起是生存的一个非常显著的预测因子。I级(颌下)淋巴结5年生存率为34%，IV级仅为4%。
Two thousand and fifty-eight patients with squamous carcinoma of the head and neck are described. Thirty-five per cent of these patients had a node in the neck at the time of presentation. The level of the node was dictated by the primary tumour: other factors such as T or N status were not significant predictors of node level. Node level was a highly significant predictor of survival, together with age, general condition, node status and site the primary tumour. The 5-year survival for nodes at Level I (submandibular) nodes was 34%, and only 4% for nodes at Level IV.
