What is Factors Associated with Survival and Patient’s Quality of Life After Segmental Mandibulectomy about?

Aim This study aimed to explore the survival rate and quality of life (QoL) in patients who underwent segmental mandibulectomy and determine the associated factor with survival rate and QoL. Material and methods In this cross-sectional study, all patients who underwent segmental mandibular resection in the referral center of Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Iran, during 2015-2019 were included. Inclusion criteria were segmental mandibulectomy due to any pathology and age of more than 8 years old. Demographic, clinical data and patient survival were recorded. EORTC QLQ-HN43 was used to evaluate QoL. Results Totally, 82 patients were studied. The overall 3-year survival rate was 69.5% (57 patients) (mean ± SD: 1.35 ± 1.03 years). According to univariate analysis, age (p-value = 0.001), hospital lengths of stay (p-value < 0.001), gender (p-value = 0.014, OR = 4.143), education (p-value = 0.015, OR = 0.291), pathology (p-value < 0.001, OR = 17.000), metastasis (p-value = 0.018, OR = 4.894), neck dissection (p-value < 0.001, OR = 52.381), frozen margin (p-value < 0.001 OR = 8.000), recurrence (p-value = 0.001, OR = 6.273), and status of chemoradiotherapy (p-value < 0.001) were sig
