Angiogenesis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences, 2000Tumour angiogenesis has recently attracted a great deal of attention as a critical part of oncogenesis and a necessary prerequisite for a malignant phenotype. Research into this process not only offers new insights into tumour biology but is also leading to the development of realistic novel and minimally toxic anti-tumour therapies.

The economics of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head & Neck Surgery, 2007The current review presents a brief overview of the recent literature on the costs of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), one of the most common forms of cancer. SCCHN is a relatively deadly disease. Approximately 50% of patients survive to 5 years, and surgery and chemoradiotherapy can leave survivors with pain, disfigurement, and ...

Pharmacotherapy of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2009The clinical management of locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a challenging problem and requires a multidisciplinary approach. Historically, locally advanced HNSCC has been primarily managed with surgery and radiation (RT).

Pharmacotherapy for squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2011squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) is one of the most common malignancies, the treatment of which constitutes a therapeutic challenge.the purpose of this review is to provide an update on the pharmacotherapy for the treatment of HNSCC focusing mainly on molecular-targeted therapies.

Stem cells in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2011The existence of a small subpopulation of tumourigenic cancer stem cells in the bulk of human head and neck squamous cancers (SCC) has been recognised in recent reports. This subpopulation has self-renewal properties and is responsible for the production of differentiated daughter cells that form the bulk of the tumour.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: Better to be young
Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1997Most head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients are elderly, with few younger than 40 years. Controversy exists in the literature regarding outcomes for younger patients. The goal of this research project was to compare baseline features and outcomes for young patients (≤40 years), middle‐aged patients (41‐64 years), and old patients (≥65 years ...

Mucosal Adenoid Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1996Adenoid squamous cell carcinoma is an uncommon variant of squamous cell carcinoma. The lesion is histologically distinctive and it is usually localized on the skin of the head and neck region; it only rarely involves the mucosal sites. The differential diagnoses include adenosquamous carcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, mucoepidermoid carcinoma ...

Nivolumab in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2018The prognosis of recurrent/metastatic (R/M) squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) after failure of first line chemotherapy is dismal. Until the publication of the results of CheckMate 141, not a single agent provided any survival benefit as a second line treatment for R/M HNSCC. Areas covered: A comprehensive review of the literature was

Genetic Susceptibility to Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2014Head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, and its incidence is growing. Although environmental carcinogens and carcinogenic viruses are the main etiologic factors, genetic predisposition obviously plays a risk-modulating role, given that not all individuals exposed to these carcinogens experience the ...

Lateralization of Squamous Cell Carcinomas in the Head-Neck Region
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2005Earlier studies have shown the lateralization of several immune disorders, including herpes zoster infection and breast cancer. We investigated whether there is lateralization of squamous cell carcinomas in the head-neck region and a relation of handedness with this cancer. Analysis showed right-sided lateralization of head-heck cancers in right-handed
