The term head and neck cancer refers to a group of biologically similar cancers originating from the upper aero digestive tract, including the lip, oral cavity, nasal cavity, Para nasal sinuses, pharynx, and larynx. Most head and neck cancers are squamous cell carcinomas, originating from the mucosal lining of these regions. Head and neck cancers often spread to the lymph nodes of the neck, and this is often the first manifestation of the disease at the time of diagnosis. Head and neck cancer is strongly associated with certain environmental and lifestyle risk factors, including tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, and certain strains of the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus. Head and neck cancer is highly curable if detected early, usually with some form of surgery although chemotherapy and radiation therapy may also play an important role. Head and neck cancer consists of tumors of mouth, throat, voice box and the associated structures such as sinuses, salivary and thyroid gland. It is now clearly established that multimodality treatment with surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy alone or in various combinations offer the best chance to cure the disease and to improve the quality of life of patients. Because of the involvement of multiple specialties, the treatment decision and monitoring is best carried out through a multidisciplinary head and neck oncology team, rather than by a single physician or a specialty. The surgical procedure involves some complications but if you have selected an experienced surgeon for your cancer treatment then all these complications can be avoided and the surgery could be performed safely with good success rate.
