Occult metastases of oral cavity cancers
Despite new approaches to treatment and lower mortality, malignant tumors of the head and neck, including the malignant tumors of the oral cavity, still represent significant oncological problem because long-term survival has not been significantly prolonged. The growth of tumors of this localization is fast and infiltrative.
