Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma in a Middle-Aged Patient: Case Report and Literature Review

Knowledge of the epidemiology of oral malignancies, especially of squamous cell carcinoma in the oral cavity, allows for lesser morbidity and mortality and the formulation of appropriate, prompt, treatment programs. These regional differences are of clinical interest as they often shape both diagnostic approach and therapeutic decision-making. Surgery relics the main procedure for oral cavity carcinoma, and reconstruction is necessary to repair the tremendous deficiencies that develop after the removal of the tumors themselves. Despite considerable advances in diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, oral cancer continues to present significant clinical and public health challenges. Initial recognition of oral cancer possibly malignant lesions has prevented effective treatment. This case focuses on the medical features of squamous cell carcinoma in the oral cavity, with strategies for primary detection in addition to prevention of this disease, and describes an early-stage squamous cell carcinoma in the oral cavity.
