OBJECTIVES: Head and neck adenosquamous cell carcinoma (HN-ASCC) is a rare, aggressive neoplasm, with limited data reported in the literature. The aim of this study was to assess tumour behaviour and prognostic factors impacting overall survival (OS) in a retrospective, single institution series.
METHODS: A retrospective study on patients affected by HN-ASCC who were treated surgically between 2002 and 2019 at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery of the University of Brescia was conducted. Demographics, clinical data, OS, and relative prognostic factors were analysed.
RESULTS: The study included 32 patients, with a median age of 66 years, mostly males (84.4%) and untreated (68.8%). Adjuvant treatments followed surgery in 28.1% of patients. Compared to conventional SCC, ASCC showed a higher proportion of cases arising in the larynx (40.6%); no difference was found in other features. Advanced (pT3-4) local stage at presentation (p = 0.023), perineural invasion (PNI, p = 0.01), and positive margins (p = 0.007) were independent negative prognostic factors for OS.
CONCLUSIONS: HN-ASCC is a rare, aggressive cancer, most frequently arising in the larynx of elderly males, usually diagnosed in an advanced local stage. OS is generally poor, affected by local advanced stage, PNI, and positive resection margins.
