ObjectiveTo determine the demographic characteristics, prognostic factors, and management for patients diagnosed with a malignant odontogenic tumor (MOT).Study DesignThe Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry was reviewed for patients diagnosed with MOT from 1973 to 2011. Kaplan-Meier and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed on patient demographic characteristics and pathologic variables.ResultsThe SEER database identified 295 MOT patients. The mean age at diagnosis was 50.5 years (range 5-89 years). Of these patients, 61.7% were male and 38.3% were female. The racial composition was 66.4% White, 22% Black, 6.1% Asian, 3.1% Pacific Islander, 0.3% Native American, and 2.1% Other/Unknown. Kaplan-Meier analysis found an overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) at 5 years of 54% and 67%, respectively. Multivariate analysis of the entire cohort found that age and stage were predictors of OS and that age was a predictor for DSS. For stage I/II MOTs, age and surgical therapy were predictors of OS and DSS, respectively.ConclusionsHere we report the largest study to date investigating demographic characteristics, prognostic factors, and management of MOT patients. Determinants of survival for OS and DSS include age, stage, and surgical therapy.
