A Study of Prognostic Significance of Perineural Invasion in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cancer of the oral cavity is a widely prevalent disease and has been listed as sixth most common cancer worldwide [1]. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) accounts for about 90% all these cases [2]. Despite tremendous research over last 70 years, overall prognosis remains at 50% with no gender difference [3].

Perineural invasion in oral squamous cell carcinoma: a discussion of significance and review of the literature.
Perineural invasion (PNI) is a tropism of tumor cells for nerve bundles in the surrounding stroma. It is a form of tumor spread exhibited by neurotropic malignancies that correlates with aggressive behavior, disease recurrence and increased morbidity and mortality. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a neurotropic malignancy that traditionally has been difficult to treat and manage. Evidence...
متن کاملA clinicopathological study of perineural invasion and vascular invasion in oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma.
The risk factors for recurrence of head and neck cancer are classified as being of high or intermediate risk. Those of intermediate risk include multiple positive nodes without extracapsular nodal spread, perineural/vascular invasion, pT3/T4 primary tumours, and positive level IV/V nodes. However, little evidence is available to validate these intermediate risk factors. We analyzed perineural/v...
متن کاملPredictors of Thyroid Gland Invasion in Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Introduction: Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can invade the thyroid gland leading to unnecessary thyroidectomies with subsequent hypothyroidism and hyperparathyroidism. Thus, clinicopathological variables should be defined in order to predict thyroid gland invasion preoperatively. Materials and Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of 1,465 patients with laryngeal SCC referr...
متن کاملClinical Significance of Salivary Biomarkers in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Review
Background and Aim: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) accounts for approximately 3% of all cancers worldwide, and if diagnosed early, it has a five-year survival rate of around 85%; however, a late diagnosis may decrease the survival rate to 50%. Aberrant expression of several genes is associated with the hallmarks of OSCC including uncontrolled cell proliferation, poor differentiation, invas...
متن کاملCircRNA_0109291 regulates cell growth and migration in oral squamous cell carcinoma and its clinical significance
Objective(s): Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a new class of non-coding RNAs, have emerged as important regulators during tumorigenesis. However, the functions of circRNAs have not been completely clarified in the progression of cancers. In our study, a novel circRNA hsa_circ_0109291 was investigated in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissues and cell lines. Materials and Methods: The expression ...
