SII = neutrophil count (109/L) × platelet count (109/L)/lymphocyte count (109/L). PNI = serum albumin (g/L) + 5 × total lymphocyte count (109/L).Results: High preoperative SII and low preoperative PNI were independent risk factors for tumor recurrence in OSCC patients of the stage of III/IV. The area under the curves (AUC) for SII was 0.69 (0.63 to 0.76), for PNI was 0.72 (0.67 to 0.78), and for joint model was 0.81 (0.76 to 0.85). Patients with low level of joint model had significantly higher overall survival rate for 5 years follow-up than those with high level.Discussion: Both preoperative SII and PNI are valuable independent tumor recurrence prediction index in patients with advanced OSCC. Meanwhile, the combination of preoperative SII and PNI is also valuable on OSCC recurrence and prognosis prediction.Keywords: oral squamous cell carcinoma, prognostic nutritional index, systemic immune-inflammation index, recurrence, prognosis
