“…3,5 In studies specifically reporting tumors from the tonsil, percentages varied from 4% to 13% in three different cities from Brazil to 30% in Central and South America. [6][7][8][9] HPV-associated oropharyngeal SCCs occur mainly in the tonsil of male patients, showing an increased survival rate compared with HPV-negative cases. This subset of carcinomas also show histologic and molecular features different from conventional SCCs, as these usually are nonkeratinizing, strongly express p16, and show a higher proliferation index and lower p53 expression.…”

The world's scientific literature is replete with present relevant researches on caries in children 4,5 . However, there is a big gap when we observe the low scientific productivity of oral lesions on soft tissue, affecting the oral health of pediatric patients 4,[6][7][8] .…”

However, there is a big gap when we observe the low scientific productivity of oral lesions on soft tissue, affecting the oral health of pediatric patients 4,[6][7][8] . It is essential to the affirmation of the high incidence of these lesions in children; and the certainty that, in most cases, these injuries do not get a quick diagnosis that enables a ready treatment 9,10 .…”
