Abstract:
ObjectiveTo explore factors related to dysphagia early after surgery for head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). MethodsA total of 80 HNSCC inpatients in Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, the Frist Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, from October, 2019 to April, 2021, were reviewed swallowing function with Kubota water drinking test, Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIs) and M.D. Anderson Dysphagia Inventory (MDADI), two weeks after radical surgery for the first time; while the related data were collected and analyzed. ResultsThe incidence of early post-operative dysphagia was 91.25%. The T stages of the tumor, the location of the primary tumor, simultaneous flap repairment and neck dissection were the factors related to dysphagia (P < 0.05), and T stages of the tumor was the independent factor (B = -5.092, t = -6.770, P < 0.001). ConclusionIt's necessary to evaluate the swallowing function of HNSCC patients after surgery, especially for those in worse stages, for early intervention.
