Patterns of oral squamous cell carcinoma among smokeless tobacco users: A clinical study

Year: 2025
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Subsite distribution, mandibular invasion patterns, nodal involvement and survival outcomes in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients with a history of smokeless tobacco (SLT) use is of interest. Gingivobuccal complex (GBC) subsites were predominant, with frequent mandibular marrow involvement. Two- and five-year overall survival rates approximated 95% and 79%, respectively. Thus, data shows the clinical behavior of SLT-associated OSCC and underscore the importance of targeted imaging and early detection.
