Abstract

Oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC) is the epithelial tumor of oral cavity and is the most common malignant tumor among all. Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC) is more existing and occuring in old men. It may involve lip and internal structures and may show clearly with exophytic, endophytic, leukoplakic or erythroplakic act of appearing. Occurrence of oral squamous cell carcinoma is in mouth, lip, tongue, floor of the mouth, Sulcus, hard palate, tonsils and 95% squamous cells. There is low survival rate have reported in females, ascribed to delay in availing medical care and seeking less acceptance of treatment, although there are no predictive differences between males and females.
