Abstract:Background
Current lymph node (LN) staging is controversial in predicting the survival of major salivary gland cancer (MSGC). Recently, a novel LN staging system for MSGC has been proposed.

Methods
A total of 4563 MSGC patients were identified from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database … Show more
