    Buccal mucosa carcinoma (BMC) is a subtype of oral cancer characterized by aggressive behavior and poor prognosis.

  • 2

    Traditional survival metrics like overall survival (OS) do not adequately reflect the dynamic nature of survival in BMC patients.

  • 3

    Conditional survival (CS) analysis offers a more nuanced view of survival probabilities over time, aiding in prognosis refinement.

  • 4

    A CS-nomogram was developed to integrate CS analysis into survival prediction, enhancing accuracy for clinical decision-making.

  • 5

    The study utilized the SEER database to conduct a comprehensive CS analysis and validate the CS-nomogram for BMC patients.
