BACKGROUND The oral cavity and pharyngolarynx is readily open to the environment, which provides a good atmosphere to viral infection and subsequently links to the local carcinogenesis. The aim of this study is to clarify the viral risk factors for tongue and pharyngolaryngeal squamous carcinomas and the oncogenic role of DNA viruses. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tongue, pharyngeal and laryngeal car...
Although easily examined, abnormalities of the tongue can present a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma for physicians. Recognition and diagnosis require a thorough history, including onset and duration, antecedent symptoms, and tobacco and alcohol use. Examination of tongue morphology and a careful assessment for lymphadenopathy are also important. Geographic tongue, fissured tongue, and hairy ...
BACKGROUND Recent studies have shown that salvage treatment may be effective for early tongue carcinoma with nodal failures after watchful waiting policy. We wanted to assess the efficacy of salvage neck dissection. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of all patients with pT1 and pT2 oral tongue cancer who underwent partial glossectomy without any neck surgery and determined the survi...
PURPOSE Despite advances in our understanding, prevention, and treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the 5-year survival rates for patients remain low. This poor prognosis for head and neck SCC and SCC of the oral tongue (SCCOT) in particular reflects a limited understanding of the mechanisms of local and regional metastasis, which accounts for a majority of deaths. To analy...
Autoamputation is an uncommon phenomenon that has been reported for the fingers, toes, appendix, ovary, spleen, etc. Autoamputation of the tongue has never been reported. An elderly man with carcinoma of lateral pharyngeal wall and tonsil presented with an autoamputated tongue that was attached to the oral cavity with a thin band. The patient required detachment of the tongue and tracheostomy f...
Objective: Systemic sclerosis (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of connective tissue, which involves skin and internal organs, and results in collagen deposition and fibroblasts activation. Studies have reported a higher risk of malignancy in patients with progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS).The aim of this study is to report a case of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in a patient with ...
BACKGROUND The incidence of oropharyngeal and oral tongue cancers has increased over the last 20 years which parallels increased use of marijuana among individuals born after 1950. METHODS A pooled analysis was conducted comprising individual-level data from nine case-control studies from the United States and Latin America in the INHANCE consortium. Self-reported information on marijuana smo...
PURPOSE Patients with oral tongue carcinoma treated by intraoral excision only should be followed up carefully for cervical lymph node metastasis and salvaged immediately if found, because some patients have a more aggressive clinical course. The purpose of this study was to find useful markers for predicting late cervical metastasis in patients with stage I and II invasive squamous cell carcin...
Oral squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common human neoplasms, and prevention of this malignancy requires a better understanding of its carcinogenesis process. To this end, we tried to establish an animal model using the human c-Ha-ras proto-oncogene-carrying transgenic (Tg) rats and the carcinogen 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4-NQO). 4-NQO (20 p.p.m.) was administered to Tg and non-Tg ra...
Spindle cell carcinoma (SpCC) is referred to as a variant of oral squamous cell carcinoma. It is also known as "sarcomatoid squamous cell carcinoma" because it consists of normal squamous carcinoma cells with spindle-shaped cells that appear similar to a sarcoma. The term, "second primary tumor" (SPT) or "double primary tumor", is proposed for a second tumor that develops independently from the...
