Clinical impact of lymphatic spread in patients with limited-stage upper aerodigestive tract NK/T cell lymphoma

We investigated whether distance , that is, the degree of distance between the upper aerodigestive tract (UAT) mass and the farthest pathologic lymph node, was significantly associated with survival in patients with limited-stage UAT natural killer/T cell lymphoma (NKTCL). A total of 157 patients wh...

Description
Summary:We investigated whether distance , that is, the degree of distance between the upper aerodigestive tract (UAT) mass and the farthest pathologic lymph node, was significantly associated with survival in patients with limited-stage UAT natural killer/T cell lymphoma (NKTCL). A total of 157 patients who received chemotherapy (CTx) with/without radiotherapy (RTx) were enrolled. In the survival analysis, an elevated lactate dehydrogenase level [progression-free survival (PFS): hazard ratio (HR), 2.948; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.606‒5.404;
