This study evaluates the effect of nodal examination on prognosis and survival in patients undergoing curative-intent resection of ACC. METHODS The National Cancer Database (2004-2015) was queried for patients undergoing margin-negative resection for ACC.

Factors associated with lymph node examination included increasing tumor size (P |
