“…The main cause of the incidence of this cancer is the high consumption of tobacco, especially among consumers of smokeless tobacco, excessive alcohol consumption, and exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays (Ariyawardana and Johnson, 2013;Listl et al, 2013). Also infection of human papillomavirus (Dodd et al, 2016) has been reported a as risk factor for this cancer.…”

Introduction: According to the importance of knowledge about incidence and mortality of oral cavity and lip cancer in health planning, this study was performed with the aim of investigating the incidence and mortality rate of oral cavity and lip cancer and its relation with the Human Development Index in the world in 2012. Methods: The study was conducted based on data from the world data of cancer and the World Bank (including the HDI and its components). Data about the age-specific incidence and mortality rate (ASR) for every country in 2012 were getting from the global cancer project. To analyze data, correlation tests between incidence and death rates, and HDI and its components were employed with a significance level of 0.05 using SPSS software. Results: In 2012, 300373 cases of oral cavity and lip cancer and 145353 cases of death from it have occurred in the world. A positive correlation of 0.221 was seen between the standardized incidence rate of oral cavity and lip cancer and HDI but this correlation was not statistically significant (p=0.114). On the other side, a correlation of 0.295 was seen between the standardized mortality rate of oral cavity and lip cancer with HDI that this correlation was statistically significant (p<0.001). Conclusion: The incidence and mortality of oral cavity cancer is high in the Asian countries especially south eastern of Asia. Performing preventive plans in high incidence and mortality rate regions and also obtaining etiological studies in these regions is recommended for diagnosing the causes of high incidence and mortality rates.

“…1,11 In 2008 lip cancer incidence in Australia was 0.19 (males) and 0.26 (females) for the upper lip and 3.34 (males) and 0.9 (females) for lower lip. 12 In Saxony, Germany, 1997 to 2006 2,776 patients with lip cancer have been registered. The 5-year survival rate in Germany has been calculated as high as 86.5%.…”

Background: Nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) of the perioral region is not uncommon. Basal cell carcinoma is predominant in the upper lip area and squamous cell carcinoma in the lower lip area. While smaller lesions can be treated by excision followed by primary closure larger defects after tumor surgery can be challenging.Objectives: Analysis of outcome after complete surgical excision with micrographical control of excision margins (delayed Mohs surgery) of large NMSC's of the perioral region (lips and chin). Patients and methods:This is a retrospective, single-center analysis of patients with defects after delayed Mohs surgery of ≥ 3 cm of the perioral region. The study included a total of 25 patients (4 women and 21 men) with a mean age of 83.7 years. Twenty patients were diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma and five had basal cell carcinoma. The lower lip was affected in 19 patients, the upper lip in 4 patients and the chin in 2 patients. Tumor stage was either T1N0M0 or T2N0M0. The most common procedure for lower lip defect closure was staircase or modified staircase technique. Cheek advancement flaps were used for upper lip defect closure. Inferiorly based nasolabial rotational flap, cheek rotational flap and modified Webster flap were also employed. In one patient Webster flap and unilateral staircase technique were combined. Results:In all patients the tumor was removed completely with preservation of function and aesthetics. No local recurrence was observed after a median follow-up of 4.9 years. Conclusion:Perioral reconstruction after removal of large NMSC is a complex issue. The age group of over 70 years, frequently with comorbidities, requires a robust surgical technique with short operation times and tailored approaches for defect closure. (J Dermatol Case Rep.

“…Tobacco smoking: tobacco use is the single most important modifiable risk factor for upper aero-digestive tract cancer; a meta-analysis of data available worldwide has determined the relative risk in current smokers to be 2.56 (95% confidence interval, 2.20-2.97) for the latter (p<0.001) (Johnson et al, 2003).…”
