5-year disease-specific survival curve by treatment group. This survival curve depicts the 5-year disease-specific survival for all patients reported in this study, and is divided by treatment group, TLM and RT. No statistically significant relationship was observed between treatment group and 5-year survival (χ 2 < 0.001, p = 0.983). Censored patients are those whose did not die from their primary cancer but were lost to follow-up before the 5-year mark
