چکیده
The anterior two thirds of the tongue lie in the oral cavity (mobile tongue). The posterior third (base of tongue) is in the oropharynx and the junction between the two is at the insertion of the anterior faucial pillar and the line of the circumvallate papillae. Eighty-five per cent of tumours arise on the lateral border of the oral tongue, 10 to 15% on the ventral surface and 5% or less from the dorsal surface. (21)
