ABSTRACT

PURPOSE:

Mucosal melanoma of the head and neck (MMHN) is a rare condition. This study aimed to investigate oncological outcomes of surgical intervention in patients with MMHN. MATERIALS AND

METHODS:

The study included 34 patients with MMHN who underwent surgical resection as initial treatment at 10 institutions in Japan between July 2005 and June 2015.

Results:

The 5-year overall survival (OS), local control rate (LCR), disease-free survival (DFS), and disease-specific survival (DSS) rates were 48.7%, 53.4%, 32.4%, and 55.1%, respectively. Based on multivariate analysis, no independent prognostic factors for the 5-year OS and DSS were found. Based on univariate analysis, the 5-year LCR was worse in patients with lesions in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses than in the oral cavity and pharynx. However, no differences in oncological outcomes were identified in relation to primary sites, and postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) and adjuvant systemic therapy did not contribute to improvements in the 5-year OS.

CONCLUSIONS:

No independent prognostic factors for the 5-year OS or DSS were identified. Regional or distant recurrences are often identified, regardless of local control with surgical resection. Difficult control of MMHN with conventional therapeutic strategies, such as surgical intervention, PORT, and systemic therapy, has been suggested.
