Course Overview:

Oral Cavity Cancer

Although cancers of the head and neck region only account for five percent of all cancers reported yearly in the human body, 30 percent of these cancers occur in the oral cavity. That is roughly 22,000 new cases per year if cancers of the lip are not included. Between 6000 and 7000 deaths per year occur because of oral cavity cancer. Cancers of the oral cavity left untreated can have devastating effects on critical life functions for people who have this disease. The oral cavity cancer diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation is challenging because there are many different types of tissue located in this relatively small area and this area has numerous functions (speech, mastication, swallow, cosmesis).

The choice of treatment and rehabilitation must take into account the potential loss of function in this area. A well-coordinated multidisciplinary team is required to provide optimal cancer treatment outcomes and survivorship. The objective of this symposium will be to review all aspects of oral cavity cancer diagnosis, treatments and rehabilitation with presentations from all disciplines involved. Specific attention will be paid to the diagnostic difficulties of oral cavity lesions, cutting edge treatments of challenging cases and how to optimize the rehabilitation of these patients.

Objectives:

1.  Review basics of head and neck cancer risk, diagnosis and treatment

2.  Review multidisciplinary approach to head and neck cancer care

3.  Specific attention will be given to oral cancers including oral cavity and oropharynx cancers

4.  Review of the HPV cancer related epidemic

5.  Define cancer survivorship for head and neck cancer patients and the importance of oral health

6.  Review how head and neck cancer treatment can affect oral health
