“…24 Concerning HNC, several factors have already been identified as determinants in tumorigenesis, with tobacco and alcohol being the most prominent risk factors with mutagenic potential, accounting for 65 to 95% of these neoplasms. 16,[25][26][27] As marital status, most patients did not have a stable relationship (married/stable union), contrary to previous findings showing most participants had some type of stable relationship. 11,28 With regard to occupation and education level, only 28% of patients had a job, and 32% were illiterate.…”

Fron the individuals who participated in the survey, 75.44% used tobacco and 33.33% had the drinking habit.…”

“…Quando ocorre primariamente em tecidos epiteliais (pele ou mucosa) é denominado de Carcinoma, quando no tecido conjuntivo (osso, músculo, cartilagem, etc) é denominado Sarcoma O câncer de boca engloba um conjunto de neoplasias que acometem a cavidade bucal em suas mais variadas etiologias e aspectos histopatológicos, estando entre os dez tipos de neoplasias malignas mais frequentes na população brasileira, sendo o quinto mais incidente em homens e o sétimo em mulheres. As taxas de incidência e mortalidade são preocupantes, estando entre as mais elevadas do mundo, com o carcinoma de células escamosas (CCE) correspondendo de 90% a 95% dos casos de câncer de boca 3,4 . É considerada uma doença multifatorial decorrente de fatores genéticos, ambientais ou infecciosos, isolados ou em associação, causadores de alterações citogenéticas que progridem através de uma sequência de mutações somáticas, resultando em proliferação celular descontrolada.…”
