ABSTRACT

The correlation between TNM classification and histological scores of malignancy, and the correlation of these parameters with the prognosis was evaluated in 16 cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue. The cases were selected from the files of "Dr. Luiz Antônio" Cancer Hospital, Natal, RN, Brazil. After analysis of the patients' records, the data concerning TNM classification and prognosis (in a 5-year-follow-up) were obtained. All cases were classified according to the histological malignancy grading system proposed by Anneroth et al. (1) [Scand Dent Res 1987;95:229-249]. There was no correlation (r = 0.3083) between TNM classification and histological scores of malignancy. There was significant correlation (r = 0.7206) between TNM classification and prognosis, but there was no correlation between the histological scores of malignancy and the prognosis. It was concluded that TNM classification is an important prognostic indicator of squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue

ABSTRACT

A correlação entre classificação TNM e escores histológicos de malignidade e a correlação destes parâmetros com o prognóstico foi avaliada em 16 casos de carcinoma epidermóide de língua. Os casos foram selecionados dos arquivos do Hospital Dr. Luiz Antonio, Natal, RN, Brasil. Após a análise dos prontuários foram obtidos os dados relativos à classificação clínica TNM e o prognóstico (seguimento de cinco anos). A classificação morfológica dos casos foi realizada de acordo com o sistema de gradação histológica de malignidade proposto por Anneroth et al. Não houve correlação (r = 0,3083) entre classificação TNM e escores histológicos de malignidade. Houve correlação significante (r = 0,7206) entre classificação TNM e o prognóstico, o mesmo não foi observado entre escores histológicos de malignidade e prognóstico. Diante destes resultados concluímos que o estadiamento clínico TNM constitui um indicador de prognóstico importante do carcinoma epidermóide de língua
