Pre-Malignant Lesions/conditionsLeukoplakia - chronic, white, verrucous plaque with
histologic atypiaSeverity linked to the duration and quantity of tobacco and alcohol
useOccur anywhere in the oral cavity Lip, tongue, or floor of the mouth lesions are prone for progression
to SCCErythroplakia - non-inflammatory erythematous plaque
Analagous to intra-oral erythroplasia of Queyrat or SCC in situBiopsies - severe dysplasia and areas of frank invasion

Pre-Malignant Lesions…Submucous fibrosis
generalized white discoloration of oral mucosa with progressive fibrosis, painful mucosal atrophy and restrictive fibrotic bands
individuals who chew betel quid, a concoction of tobacco, lime, areca nut and betel leaves
Ultimately leads to trismus, dysphagia and severe xerostomia
5 - 10 % progress to SCC

INCIDENCEDemographic and clinical profile of oral squamous
cell carcinoma patients: a retrospective study ( Shenoi R, Sharma BK, et.al, Indian J Cancer. 2012 Jan;49(1):21-6:
Most common site: mandibular alveolusMajor cause: tobacco chewingMajority of patients presented in stage IIIMajority presented within 6 months of onset
![Page 13: Malignancies of Oral Cavity, Lip, Tongue](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a65c8be7f8b9aa4758b6d9d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Risk FactorsTobacco: About 90% of people with oral cavity
and oropharyngeal cancer use tobacco Alcohol: Drinking alcohol strongly increases a
smoker's risk of developing oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancer.
Ultraviolet light: More than 30% of patients with cancers of the lip have outdoor occupations associated with prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Irritation: Long-term irritation to the lining of the mouth caused by poorly fitting dentures
![Page 14: Malignancies of Oral Cavity, Lip, Tongue](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a65c8be7f8b9aa4758b6d9d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Risk Factors Cont…Poor nutrition: A diet low in fruits and vegetables is
associated with an increased risk Mouthwash: Some studies have suggested that
mouthwash with a high alcohol content Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection: Immune system suppression:Age: The likelihood of developing oral and oropharyngeal
cancer increases with age, especially after age 35. Gender: Oral and oropharyngeal cancer is twice as
common in men as in women

How tobacco affectsTobacco smoke contains >4000 chemicals, at least 60
shown to be carcinogens.Smoke less tobacco: main form: chewing, snuff at least 28 carcinogens found in smokeless form
![Page 16: Malignancies of Oral Cavity, Lip, Tongue](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a65c8be7f8b9aa4758b6d9d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

How Alcohol affectsChronic alcohol exposure results in increased
cancer incidence in animal model.Acetaldehyde , reactive oxygen species- main
mutagenAcetaldehyde: directly binds to DNA, alters
methyl transfer leading to hypomethylation leading to alerted gene products
Alcohol promotes cytochrome P450- which increases activation of procarcinogens( tobacco, alcohol).
Alcohol can act as solvent facilitating entry of carcinogens into cells

Role of HPV in Oral SCCRole of human papilloma virus in the oral carcinogenesis: an
Indian perspective (Chocolatewala NM, et.al. J Cancer R Ther. 2009 Apr-Jun;5(2):7-17).
Association strongest for Oropharynx, specially cancer of tonsils followed by base of tongue.
High risk HPV-16 predominate type.Commonly affects younger age groups , male, non smokers.Better outcomes, more responsive to RT, higher survival rate.

Standard treatment options for management of lymph node:Radiation therapy alone or neck dissection:
N1 (0–2 cm).N2b or N3; all nodes smaller than 2 cm. (A combined surgical and radiation therapy approach should also be considered.)
Radiation therapy and neck dissection:N1 (2–3 cm), N2a, N3.
Surgery followed by radiation therapy, indications for which are as follows:
Multiple positive nodes.Contralateral subclinical metastases.Invasion of tumor through the capsule of the lymph node.N2b or N3 (one or more nodes in each side of the neck, as appropriate, >2 cm).
Radiation therapy prior to surgery:Large fixed nodes.

EPIDEMIOLOGY
It is one of most common malignant tumor affecting
head & neck
Squamous cell Carcinoma is most common in India
Factors affecting are:
1. Solar radiation
2. Tobacco smoking
3. Viruses
LIP CANCER

Male:female ratio – 14:1
Lower lip > upper lip (solar radiation)
90% : lower lip
6%: oral commissure
4%: upper lip
![Page 67: Malignancies of Oral Cavity, Lip, Tongue](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051521/5a65c8be7f8b9aa4758b6d9d/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
1. Lip should have sensation, motion, prevent drooling, permit speech & resonable cosmetic appearance.
2. Full thickness skin flaps used whenever possible3. It should provide sufficient mucosa contiguous to
commisure to avoid contracture

FIGURE 2. Direct excision and repair of lower l ip lesions. Lesions up to one half of the l ip can be excised and repair primarily.Small lesions can be excised using the "V" excision, and can be angled to blend into the chin-lip crease. Larger lesions can beexcised using a "W" pattern. The "W" avoids crossing the chin-lip crease and retains an adequate margin of tissue around thelesion inferiorly. The largest lesions can be excised as a rectangle and incisions made in the chin-lip crease to allow advancementof lateral lip tissue for [email protected]

RADIOTHERAPYApplications: - Radical : early tongue cancer - palliative : advanced total control not possible: 20Gy
x5 daily fractions x 1 week. -combined therapy. -preoperative. -postoperative.

POST-OP RTIndications:-presence of nodal disease with exptracapsular spread.-presence of involved surgical margin-excision margin less than 5mm.-stage III/IV.-perineural or vascular invasion.-poor differentiation.-oral cavity primary.-multicentric primary.->4 nodes positive.-soft tissue invasion.-dysplasia or carcinoma insitu at resection margin.

IMMUNOTHERAPYHPV Vaccines
Estimated that 25% of HNSCC are HPV associated Tend to arise in younger patients Lingual and palatine tonsils Occur predominantly in non smoker/drinker Associated with a more favorable prognosis
HPV viral oncogenes E6 and E7 are consistently expressed in HPV associated cancers Thought to integrate into the host DNA, and when expressed, bypass
the regulation of cell proliferationBoth protein and DNA vaccines targeting HPV DNA are currently
in phase I and phase II trials

TARGETED THERAPYTargeted therapy in head and neck cancer: state
of the art 2007 and review of clinical applications( Langer CJ. Cancer 2008 Jun 15;112(12):2635-45:
-anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody(MoAb) cetuximab first targeted therapy to be developed
-single agent cetuximab confer clinical benefits in patient with cisplatin refractory metastatic disease.

TARGETED THERAPYMolecular targeted therapies in head and neck cancer - An
update of recent developments(Martin Goerner, et.al, Head & Neck Oncology 2010, 2:8):
-anti-EGFR MoAbs :cetuximab , pantimumab, zalutumumab -EGFR targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors: gefitinib, erlotinib - EGFR & HER-2 combined tyrosine kinase inhibitors: lapatinib, BIBW-2992. - VEGFR inhibitor: bevacicumab, sorafenib, sunitinib.

GENE THERAPYGene therapy for oral squamous cell carcinoma: An
overview( TR Saraswathi, et.al, Indian J Dent Res. 2007 Jul-Sep;18(3):120-3)
STRATEGIES: -genegene addition therapytherapy: reconstitution of wild type p-53 function
with p-53 expressing adenovirus-> led to inhibition of SCC cell lines.
- antisense RNA therapy: introducing a remedial gene that prevents expression of a specific defective gene: potential target E6 & E7 genes of HPV.
- suicide gene therapy: introduction of a gene into a cell inabling a prodrug to be activated into an active cytotoxic drug.
