Abstract
Introduction Oral cancers are malignant neoplasms that develop in the tissues of the mouth (1). Oral cancers are the [6.sup.th] most common malignancy worldwide. Despite the general global trend of [...]
The purpose of the study was to retrospectively analyze the prevalence of oral cavity, neck and head tumors recorded at our department over a period of 3 years. Retrospective analysis included archival data on cancer patients treated at our department during the 2015-2017 period. A total of 1005 patients with proven carcinomas were selected for final analysis. Cancers were detected by ultrasound, x-ray, biopsy and clinical diagnosis. The mean age of patients was 58.4[+ or -]19.3 years. The majority of cases (n=264; 26.3%) were detected in the [7.sup.th] decade of life. The most common cancers were basal cell carcinoma in 374 (37.2%) and squamous cell carcinoma in 228 (22.7%) cases. The male-to-female ratio was 1.7:1. There was no statistically significant age difference between genders. Recurrence of tumor occurred in 31 patients. The most common risk factor in both groups was sun exposure. The most common sites were lower lip, cheek and frontal region in men, and cheek region and nose in women (p Key words: Three-year data; Prevalence; Oral cancers; Risk factors; Retrospective analysis Cilj ovoga istrazivanja bio je analizirati ucestalost tumora usne supljine, vrata i glave u nasoj klinici tijekom trogodisnjeg razdoblja.
