ObjectivesThe purpose of the study was to assess the impact of a pretherapeutic Multidisciplinary Tumor Board (MTB) presentation on the prognosis and treatment outcomes in patients with primary oral cavity carcinoma.Materials and methodsThis single-center study included 630 patients diagnosed with oral cavity carcinoma treated between 2010 and 2020. The study cohort was divided in a group with and without pretherapeutic MTB presentation. Data on patient demographics, tumor characteristics, treatment and the time to treatment initiation (TTI) were collected retrospectively.ResultsPrimary findings revealed no significant difference in 3-year survival rate (3-YSR) and 3-year disease-free survival rate (3-YDFSR) for the non-MTB and MTB group. The 3-YSR was 73.1% in the non-MTB group and 67.1% in the MTB group (p = 0.112). The 3-YDFSR was 73.8% in the non-MTB group and 76.5% in the MTB group (p = 0.447). Estimated mean 5-year survival (5-YS) and 5-year disease-free survival in (5-YDFS) did not differ significantly between both groups, across the UICC stages I-IV, as well as for the entire cohort. The TTI was significantly longer in the MTB group (33.5 days, CI: 31.3;35.7) compared to the non-MTB group (20.1 days, CI: 17.9;22.4, p |
