Contemporary Oral Oncology. Biology, Epidemiology, Etiology, and Prevention
Describes the histopathologic features of malignant and premalignant oral cavity neoplasmsProvides detailed advice on the early detection, prevention, and management of potentially malignant lesionsDiscusses oral carcinogenesis, tumor biology, and epidemiologyThis is the first of four volumes that together offer an authoritative, in-depth reference guide covering all aspects of the management of oral cancer from a multidisciplinary perspective and on the basis of a strong scientific foundation. This volume, on tumor biology, epidemiology, etiology, emerging role of cancer stem cells and prevention of oral cancer, opens by discussing oral carcinogenesis in general and the role of particular carcinogens and human papillomavirus. Global epidemiology and changes in disease prevalence are then addressed. Up-to-date information is provided on emerging cancer biomarkers, and the biologic basis of personalized therapy is explained. Histopathological features of malignant and premalignant neoplasms and their relevance to management are described. Further chapters focus on the current status of chemoprevention, the management of oral submucous fibrosis, and the value of various diagnostic adjuncts. The volume concludes by critically evaluating the efficacy of oral screening methods.Table of ContentsCarcinogenesis and Field Cancerization in Oral Squamous Cell CarcinomaAetiology of Oral Cavity CancerHuman Papillomaviruses and Squamous Cell Carcinomas of Head and Neck RegionEpidemiology and Site-Specific Risk Factors for Oral CancerHistopathology of Oral Cavity Cancer and Potentially Malignant Disorders Emerging Cancer Biomarkers for HNSCC Detection and Therapeutic InterventionOral Potentially Malignant Disorders Oral Submucous FibrosisAdvances in Early Detection and Diagnostic Adjuncts in Oral Cavity CancerScreening for Oral Cancerrevention of Oral CancerBiologic Basis of Personalized Therapy in Head and Neck Squamous Cell CarcinomaRole of Cancer Stem Cells in Oral Cancer
