Health‐Related Quality of Life in Patients With a Head and Neck Sarcoma: A Mixed‐Methods Study
HNS patients share symptoms with other cancers, but location-specific issues, such as lack of tongue mobility, require tailored measurement strategies. Combining generic (EORTC QLQ-C30), location-specific (EORTC QLQ-H&N43) questionnaires, and an HNS-specific item list provides a comprehensive HRQoL assessment for future research and clinical practice.
