“…LVI is a predictor of the progression of advanced-stage disease, as its presence is attributed to aggressive tumor behavior in head and neck cancer ( 109 ). The presence of LVI indicates that a significant amount of neoplastic cells have been accessing the lymphovascular flow to form tumor emboli, consequently increasing the chance of LNM, distant metastasis and recurrence ( 16 , 110 , 111 ). The present study demonstrated that the presence of LVI was significantly associated with LNM (OR, 8.96; P<0.0001).…”

“…Lymph node metastasis, even in early-stage tumours (T1/T2), is high and usually delineates between 27% - 40% due to the rich networks of lymphatics in the oral cavity [14-15]. Distant metastasis was reported to occur in 5% - 25%, most commonly in the extracapsular spread, Uncontrolled locoregional and N-stage diseases (especially N2/N3) are a very strong indicator of systemic spread [15]. BMSCC has shown to have distant metastasis most often in lungs and less commonly involving the heart, neck, thyroid, and vertebra [16].…”

“…Such high-risk habits are highly prevalent in India and throughout the Indian subcontinent and South-East Asia. [8] The combination chemotherapy using methotrexate, bleomycin, and cisplatin gave a significantly high rate of tumor regression, with a significant number of patients showing either CR or PR. These results are comparable by to those done by other researchers separately using these drugs.…”
