Primary site surgical resection in <scp>cM1</scp> oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma
A minority of patients with cM1 OCSCC underwent primary site surgical resection. Despite the high rate of positive surgical margins, surgical resection + adjuvant chemoradiotherapy was associated with higher OS than chemotherapy alone, chemoradiotherapy, or surgical resection + adjuvant chemotherapy. Definitive local therapy may benefit select patients with cM1 OCSCC.Level of evidence: 4.
