This retrospective single-center study aimed to evaluate the relevance of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity as negative prognostic factors in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The study was performed on patients who underwent oral squamous cell carcinoma resection surgery. Patients' demographic and clinical variables were collected at diagnosis (sex, age, height, weight, comorbidities, smoke and alcohol consumption, HPV positivity, TNM-stage) and corrected for known prognostic factors (age, body mass index, TNM-stage). The Skeletal Muscle Mass (SMM) and the Cross-Sectional Area (CSA) on pre-treatment CT scans and Body Mass Index (BMI) were measured to assess sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity correlated to overall survival (OS). Chi-square statistics were used to analyze the differences between the frequencies of each categorical variable with the presence or absence of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity. The cumulative overall survival was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and the differences between curves were evaluated by the log-rank test. A Cox proportional hazard regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analysis of the overall survival. Within the limitations of the study, in this sample, sarcopenia did not seem to cause a statistically significant reduction in the overall survival in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (Log Rank χ2 = 3.67, p = 0.055; HR 0.996, 95% CI 0.732-1.354, p = 0.979), however, sarcopenic obesity showed a meaningful negative prognostic impact on it (Log Rank χ2 = 5.71, p = 0.017; HR 0.985, 95% CI 0.424-2.286, p = 0.972). Within the limitations of the study it seems that sarcopenic obesity, age, BMI, and TNM-stage are more relevant negative prognostic factors, influencing overall survival in surgically treated OSCC, than sarcopenia.
