Squamous cell carcinoma radioimmunoassay in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

The American Journal of Surgery, 1989
Tumor-associated antigen has shown promise as a clinical aid in the detection and monitoring of uterine cervical squamous cell carcinoma. Antigen levels have been shown to reflect the extent of disease and response to treatment. These findings have suggested that measurements of tumor-associated antigen may be useful in monitoring other squamous cell ...

Oligometastasis in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2022
Up to 40% of patients who present with, or later develop, metastatic disease from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma have oligometastatic disease, defined as 5 or fewer sites of metastasis. Patients with limited number of metastases clearly have improved overall survival compared with those with more disseminated metastases, but the risk of, and ...

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in childhood

Medical and Pediatric Oncology, 1998
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck region is rare in young patients and even less frequent in children 15 years or younger children. The patients reported in the literature are isolated cases and their management is always difficult because there is no large experience or a convincing theory to support treatment decisions for every ...

Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 2004
Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma is an uncommon variant of squamous cell carcinoma and was first described as a distinct entity in 1986. Basaloid squamous cell carcinoma seems to have a poorer survival rate than classical squamous cell carcinoma. On the basis of a critical literature survey, we attempt to evaluate if basaloid squamous cell carcinoma is
