Abstract:

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has a remarkably high incidence worldwide, and a fairly serious prognosis, encouraging further research in to advanced technologies for non-invasive methods of making early diagnoses, ideally in primary care settings. Objectives: Our purpose was to examine the accuracy of TNMs classification system in assessment of OSCC. Data sources: MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHL were searched to identify prognostic factors of OSCC and other information published between 1985 and 10 August 2014; the searches of MEDLINE and EMBASE were updated to November 2015. The search was restricted to peer-reviewed articles published in English. Review Methods: In this review article, the factors of prognosis of OSCC which not included in TNMs staging system have been reviewed, their effect on the prognosis of the patients and survival rate have been discussed. Results: This study identified 196 studies of prognostic factors, evaluation and assessment of OSCC. Site of the tumour 38 studies, tumour’s thickness 52 studies, biological behaviour 26 studies, OSCC histological variant and effect in prognosis 38 studies, pattern of invasive front 19 studies, stromal lymphocytic infiltrations 23 studies. All previous factors are important in prognosis of OSCC and are not included routinely in oral cancer patient’s evaluation and assessment. Conclusion: The outcome of OSCC is greatly influenced by the stage of the disease. The TNMs staging system is not including many factors which are strongly contribute to prognosis of oral cancer and period of survival rate.
