“…This survival rate is comparable with that reported in the literature. 1,2,[6][7][8] The greater than 80% incidence of recurrent disease at this time period supports the conclusion that the majority of recurrences occur in the first 5 years after diagnosis.…”

The purpose of this study was to establish treatment criteria for patients with early-stage squamous cell carcinoma of the buccal mucosa. Thirty-one patients were analyzed in a retrospective fashion. Distribution of patients according to tumor stage was relatively even. Within 5 years recurrent disease developed in nearly 80% of evaluable patients. There was a 100% overall incidence of local disease recurrence for patients with stage I and II tumors treated with wide local excision alone and followed up for more than 2 years. On the basis of these data, we conclude that wide local excision for early-stage buccal carcinoma is associated with a high local failure rate. Possible causes for failure and alternative treatment approaches are discussed.

“…Approximately (60%) of patients had extensive disease beyond the cheek mucosa. This is comparable with the study done by Martin and P flueger (1935) [12], and O'Brien and Catlin (1965) [13].…”

“…According to Maccomb Fletcher [14] and O'Brien Catlin [13], in advanced stages of disease and clinically negative neck, the wide resection of the primary tumor should be combined with neck dissection, as the percentage of occult metastases in the neck is about (30%), for the oral cavity cancer. The issue is controversial.…”

Background: Cancers of the oral cavity present in a variable way but are often associated with persisting swelling or ulceration within the oral cavity. In the Indian subcontinent, oropharyngeal cancer is the common malignant tumour accounting for 40% of all cancers. Aims and Objectives:To study the principles and outcomes of flaps used in reconstruction of carcinoma of cheek in view of maintaining oral competence, facilitate swallowing, preserving speech, prevent aspiration and to achieve better cosmesis. Materials and Methods: A prospective, open label, randomized, hospital based, single centered study was conducted among 60 subjects attending Surgical Oncology OPD, K.R. Hospital attached to Mysore Medical College And Research Institute, Mysore meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria over a period of 24 months from January 2016 to December 2017. All patients who present with symptoms and signs of Carcinoma cheek, and confirmed by Edge Biopsy, FNAC of Nodes, X-Ray mandible and ortho pantamogram were included in the study. Patients suffering from Ca lip, Ca tongue, Ca oropharynx and Ca maxilla are excluded. Descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, Multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to analyse the results. Results: The mean age group of the study subjects was 52.63+7.48 (34-86) years. The gender distribution showed 52(86.67%) females as compared to 8(13.33%) males. Maximum number of 29(48.33%) patients presents in Stage-IV while minimum number of 8(13.33%) patients presented in Stage-II. 13(21.67%) and 10(16.67%) patients presented in Stage-III and Stage-I respectively. 15(25%) and 17(28.33%) of patients underwent reconstruction with the Pectoralis major myocutaneous flap(PMMC) & PMMC+DP Flaps respectively. 6(10%) patients underwent tongue flap while 5(8.33%) patients underwent forehead flap (p <0.0001). 4(6.67%) and 1(1.67%) patients underwent Deltopectoral (DP) and tongue +DP flap respectively. Postoperative complications like infection and necrosis occurred in 3(5%) and 1(1.67%) cases respectively, while orocutaneous fistula occurred in 1(1.67%) cases and 1(1.67%) case showed recurrence. Conclusion: Patients subjected to reconstruction of cheek defect with PMMC & PMMC + DP flap shows better results in terms of oral competence, speech, swallowing & cosmetic appearance when compared to other flaps.

In an attempt to extend and update information relating to oral cancer in Australia and to provide a basis for international comparison a group of 244 patients suffering from oral cancer have been studied in detail. These patients were all diagnosed in one Oral Pathology Biopsy Service used almost exclusively by oral surgeons and dentists, and although this introduced bias into the sample it had the advantage of standardising documentation. The male: female ratio (1.3 : 1) of patients with oral cancer was lower than that previously reported in Australia, but the average age of patients (60 years) was comparable with many previous reports. The floor of the mouth was the most common site of cancer. There was a significant over‐representation of tobacco and alcohol consumers amongst the patients, but a group of elderly females who had never used tobacco or alcohol, yet developed oral cancer, was identified. It was of particular interest that these elderly females had significantly lower haemoglobin and serum iron levels than a sex‐ and age‐matched control group.
