口腔鳞状细胞癌(OSCC)确实是最常见的口腔癌类型之一,通常影响50岁以上的人。它主要来源于口腔内的鳞状上皮细胞。虽然它在40岁以下的人中相对罕见,它仍然可能发生,虽然在这个年龄段不太频繁。发展OSCC的风险因素包括烟草使用(吸烟或咀嚼),过度饮酒,慢性刺激(如由于不合适的假牙),人乳头瘤病毒(HPV),感染,和某些饮食。早期发现和治疗对于改善预后和降低与此类癌症相关的死亡率至关重要。本报告描述了一个OSCC案例,分期T2N0M0,累及一名51岁男性患者的右侧颊粘膜。患者报告其脸颊右侧的溃疡剧烈疼痛。本报告着重于鳞状细胞癌的病因和简短的文献综述。
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is indeed one of the most common types of oral cancer, typically affecting individuals over the age of 50. It primarily originates from the squamous epithelial cells lining the oral cavity. While it is relatively rare in individuals under 40 years old, it can still occur, albeit less frequently in that age group. Risk factors for developing OSCC include tobacco use (smoking or chewing), excessive alcohol consumption, chronic irritation (such as from poorly fitting dentures), human papillomavirus (HPV), infection, and certain dietary foods. Early detection and treatment are crucial for improving outcomes and reducing the mortality associated with this type of cancer. This report describes a case of OSCC, staged T2 N0 M0, involving the right buccal mucosa of a 51-year-old male patient. The patient reported intense pain in an ulcer on the right side of his cheek. This report focuses on the etiological factors and a brief literature review of squamous cell carcinoma.
