Objectives: We sought to evaluate the impact of the time interval from surgical resection to local recurrence (TTLR) on clinical outcomes in head and neck soft tissue sarcoma (HNSTS). Methods: A total of 401 patients who underwent R0 resection for primary HNSTS were included in this study. Patients with local recurrence as the first event after their initial resection were divided into early local recurrence (ELR) or late local recurrence (LLR) groups according to TTLR. Multiple survival analyses were performed to identify the independent prognostic predictors of overall survival (OS) and survival after local recurrence (SAR). Results: Two hundred and nine of the 401 patients (52.1%) developed local recurrence during a median follow‐up period of 134.6 months. Patients in the ELR group had a shorter median OS time (35.0 vs. 120.6, p < 0.001) and lower 5‐year OS rate (47.7% vs. 80.9%, p < 0.001) than those in the LLR group. Moreover, the ELR group exhibited worse SAR (p = 0.001) than the LLR group, and multivariate analyses demonstrated TTLR as an independent prognostic factor for SAR (p = 0.048) and OS (p = 0.004). Additionally, re‐resection significantly prolonged SAR than other salvage interventions or no treatment (p < 0.001). Conclusion: In patients with HNSTS, ELR after R0 resection presents adverse effects on OS and SAR than those with LLR, and TTLR could serve as a promising predictor for survival. Salvage therapies, especially the re‐resection could improve SAR and should be recommended when there are surgical indications after recurrence.
