BACKGROUND In an attempt to improve the prognosis of patients with head and neck cancer, it could be necessary to identify biomarkers in homogeneous subgroups of patients with head and neck cancer. METHODS We explored the necessity of human papillomavirus (HPV) status-specific biomarkers in patients with head and neck cancer and identified an HPV status-specific gene set. The identified gene ...
introduction: vascular abnormalities are relatively uncommon lesions, but head and neck is a common region for vascular malformation which is classified as benign tumors. in this paper, the authors report a rare presentation of vascular malformation in the tongue and its managements. case report: an 18 months 2 old child presented with a giant mass of tongue which caused functional and aestheti...
background : a head and neck (h&n;) cancer severely affect the voice and compromises the patient’s vocal independence. the present study proposed to investigate the difference in the three vital components of voice the pitch, jitter and shimmer in h&n; cancer patients and compared it with age matched healthy volunteers. methods : the voice parameters were ascertained in the freshly diagnosed h&...

BACKGROUND Tobacco use is a risk factor for head and neck cancer, but effects on postoperative outcomes are unclear. METHODS Patients with head and neck cancer (n = 89) were recruited before surgery. We assessed self-reported tobacco use status (never, former, or current) at study entry and recent tobacco exposure via urinary cotinine on surgery day. Outcomes included hospital length of stay ...
Head and neck cancer is traditionally thought of as being a disease associated with alcohol and tobacco abuse and deprivation. It was the fourth most common cancer in males in Scotland in 2000 and just over 1,000 cases were diagnosed in 2007.

Head and neck cancer is becoming a more recognizable pathology to the general population and dentists. The modes of treatment include surgery and/or radiation therapy. Pretreatment dental assessment should be provided for these patients before they undergo radiation therapy. There are occasions, however, whereby head and neck cancer patients are not prepared optimally and, as a result, they suc...
BACKGROUND Because survival differences between surgical and nonsurgical treatment for head and neck cancer (HNC) are hard to detect, increasing focus has been placed on quality of life (QOL) differences after treatment. Utility assessment provides insight into QOL. Evidence suggests that a patient's comfort with numerical concepts ("numeracy") may influence utility measures. We hypothesize tha...
