Carcinoma espinocelular do lábio: avaliação de fatores prognósticos

Abstract: Dentre os cânceres do lábio de 90% a 95% dos casos afetam o lábio inferior, sendo o carcinoma espinocelular o mais freqüente. A classificação TNM sintetiza as características clínicas do tumor, permitindo realizar um prognóstico e possibilitando comparações dos resultados. Relaciona três parâmetros: tamanho do tumor (T), propagação aos gânglios linfáticos regionais (N) e metástases à distância (M), mas estabelece padrões a partir de 2cm. Para o carcinoma espinocelular do lábio lesões com 2cm são extremamente g… Show more

“…The mean age was 63 years in female patients and 61.5 years in males; this diverges from other published results. [12][13][14][15][16][17] Cancer occurs when cell multiplication processes fail; there are indications that disease progression may vary depending on clinical or pathological features. Thus, the outcome of cancer in elderly patients may be different than that in younger patients.…”

“…This observation leads to the conclusion, as Chaves et al 17 that the imbalance in the immune system does not necessarily correlate with the number of defense cells that are present, but often results from failure in the function, regulation, or migration, of a population of immune cells to the tumor site. Similarly, Abreu et al 18 observed an inverse association between advanced tumors and degree of differentiation, and Costa et al 19 demonstrated worse prognosis in advanced tumors, considering metastasis as the main prognostic indicator.…”
