[Prognosis factors analysis of 56 cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma originating from the nasopharynx].

Objective:To investigate the prognosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma originating from the nasopharynx.Method:The clinical data of 56 patients with a primary diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma originating from the nasopharynx treated between January 2010 and December 2015 were studied.The association between clinical parameters and survival rate was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model.Result:The 1,3,5-year overall survival were 91.1%, 73.1%,and 49.6% respectively.Single factor analysis displayed that age,Ann-Arbor staging,iactate dehydrogenase,combined with B symptoms at the time of diagnosis,international prognostic index and the expression level of Ki-67 were related to the prognosis factors.Multivariate analysis showed that the international prognostic index greater than or equal to 2 points and the positive rate of Ki-67 greater than or equal to 60% were the independent risk factors for the prognosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma originating from the nasopharynx.Conclusion:International prognostic index and the expression level of Ki-67 may be independent prognostic factors for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma originating from the nasopharynx.
