Risk factors for development of esophageal cancer and patients at risk have not been well understood yet. In this study we evaluated the association of ABO blood groups with incidence and clinicopathologic features of esophageal squamus cell carcinoma (SCC) in 375 cases treated in the referral cancer institute during five years period (2001-2006). Overall, the most prevalent blood group both in...

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common oral malignant neoplasm, mainly affecting individuals over 50 years old with a history of tobacco and alcohol use. The occurrence of this oral cancer in individuals under 40 years old is unusual and, when it does occur, shows a weaker relation to those risk factors and a more aggressive clinical course. Due to the paucity of reports in this...

Background: Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) of the tongue constitutes about 25% - 40% oral carcinomas. Most often, treatment failure occurs as local and regional recurrences. Currently, collection Lingual Lymph Nodes (LLNs) that are located on floor mouth has gained more attention. The lingual lymph nodes inconstant para intermediate appearing along course lymphatic vessels mouth. aim was to asse...

IMPORTANCE After surgical resection for oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma, adjuvant radiotherapy may be recommended for patients at higher risk for locoregional recurrence, but it can be difficult to predict whether a particular patient will benefit. OBJECTIVE To construct a model to predict which patients with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma would benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy. ...

In this study, the compounds having acrylophenone structure, 1-aryl-2-(N-methylpiperazinomethyl)-2-propen-1-one dihydrochlorides, were synthesized and their chemical structures were identified with (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR and HRMS spectra. The cytotoxicities of the compounds were tested towards Ca9-22 (human gingival carcinoma), HSC-2 (human oral squamous carcinoma), HSC-3 (human oral squamous carc...

Study design: cross sectional study Place duration study: Oral maxillofacial surgery Department King Edward Medical University from 5th November 2019 to February 2020. Methodology: A questionnaire was given practitioners respons...

AIM Altered lipid profile patterns have been associated with malignancies because lipids play a pivotal role in the maintenance of cell integrity. The present study evaluated alterations in serum lipid profile in oral squamous cell carcinoma patients as well as its association with the habit of tobacco consumption. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 30 oral squamous cell carcinoma patie...

Sonic hedgehog signaling is important for human development, and aberrant regulation of this pathway can result in the development of tumors. The aim of this study was to examine the expression of sonic hedgehog signaling molecules in oral squamous cell carcinoma. By quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, the expression of SHH, SMO, PTCH-1, and GLI-1 was analyzed in 30 oral squamous ...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection of the mouth and oropharynx can be acquired by a variety of sexual and social forms of transmission. HPV-16 genotype is present in many oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomata. It has an essential aetiologic role in the development of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma in a subset of subjects who are typically younger, are more engaged with high-...
