“…Altered hepatic and renal pharmacokinetics additionally have consequences for possible treatments. 5,6,7,8 Conversely, the effect the malignancy has on the pregnancy must also be considered as both conditions place extra nutritional demands on the patient. Tongue cancer by its nature can also affect the ability to take in nutrition secondary to pain and dysphagia.…”

“…Long-term alcohol and tobacco use have been identified as the traditional risk factors for oral cavity SCC (6). Interestingly, recent trends have shown an increase in the incidence of HNSCC in younger patients without these risk factors, and there is controversy over whether these represent a more aggressive form of cancer (7).…”

Oral skuamoz hücreli karsinoma, oral kavitenin en sık görülen tümörüdür. Gebelik sırasında, ağız tabanı karsinomu ise literatürde henüz bildirilmemiştir. 26 yaşında, 34 haftalık gebe hasta kliniğimize ağızda kitle şikayeti ile başvurdu. Yapılan KBB muayenesinde, sol ağız tabanında, ülsere, frajil, 2x1 cm genişliğinde ve 6-7 mm derinliğinde kitle izlendi. 8 günde, tümör iki katına çıktı. Median mandibulutomi yapılarak tümöre transmandibuler yolla ulaşıldı ve en blok olarak boyun disseksiyonu materyali ile çıkarıldı. Gebelik sırasında tespit edilen oral skuamoz hücreli karsinomalar hızlı bir şekilde tedavi edilmeli. Hasta ve yakınları, bekleme durumunda, hastalığın progresyonu konusunda uyarılmalıdır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Gebelik-ağız tabanı-skuamoz hücreli karsinoma Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most frequent malignancy of the oral cavity. Squamous cell carcinoma of floor of the mouth during pregnancy is not reported in the literature. 26-year-old female patient admitted to our clinic with a lesion in the mouth for 2 weeks. The patient was 34 weeks pregnant and non-smoker. ENT examination revealed that the fragile, ulcerated, 2×1 cm width and 6-7 mm depth lesion was on the left side of the floor of mouth. In eight days, the tumour was almost double in size. Median mandibulotomy was applied to facilitate the resection of the tumor via transmandibular way and the tumour was removed en bloc together with the neck dissection specimen. The patients with oral squamous carcinomas during pregnancy should be treated more quickly, patients and families should be informed about the tumor progression.

Introduction:Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has traditionally been known as a disease of older men with a history of tobacco and alcohol abuse. Recently, though, the incidence of this disease has been increasing in younger patients, especially women. This subset includes pregnant women. The purpose of this study was to investigate HNSCC in pregnant women, a population that represents a rare but therapeutically challenging patient subset. Methods: After obtaining IRB approval, the EMERSE search engine was used to identify all women treated at the University of Michigan from 1985-2010 who developed HNSCC during pregnancy. Four patients were identified who were diagnosed with oral tongue lesions between 1997 and 2007. Biomarker expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry and HPV was assessed by multiplex PCR/Mass spectrometry analysis.
