Abstract
Severe malnutrition has an independent impact on overall survival of primary HNSCC patients. There is a clear distinction between patients with and without severe malnutrition from moment of diagnosis until 10 years after. This emphasizes the importance of identification and optimal treatment of malnutrition before, during and after cancer treatment.
