大多数上龈和硬腭癌根据UICC标准被划分为T4期，因为它们容易侵犯底层骨组织。我们对43例上龈鳞状细胞癌患者进行了三种分类：(1)UICC的原始t分类，(2)日本头颈癌协会（JSHNC）的分类，(3)以上颌窦或鼻底作为T4的定义界限的新分类（MSF分类）。我们的研究表明，新的分类在T期患者分布、与预后的相关性和治疗方法的选择方面具有优势。
Most carcinomas of upper gingiva and hard palate are classified as T4 stage on the basis of the UICC criteria, since they easily invade the underlying bone tissue. We classified 43 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the upper gingiva in terms of three criteria: (1) the original T-classification by UICC, (2) the classification by the Japan Society for Head and Neck Cancer (JSHNC), and (3) a new classification in which the maxillary sinus or nasal floor is used as the defining borderline for T4 (MSF classification). Our study demonstrated that the new classification was superior with regard to distribution of patients by T stage, correlation with prognosis and choice of treatment method.
