Oral cavity and oropharynx cancers develop in sites with visual access; despite that, most patients are diagnosed with advanced disease. Finding an ideal biomarker for disease early diagnosis may be challenging, due to the molecular complexity of head and neck carcinomas, in which carcinogenesis may be influenced by diverse risk factors, such as tobacco, alcohol consumption and HPV infect…
In 2010, Jaguar et al. showed the efficacy of the prophylactic use of bethanechol chloride (BC) during radiotherapy in the head and neck region, clinically reducing the intensity of xerostomia. However, its action in irradiated patients who present xerostomia has not yet been determined. The present study will evaluate the efficacy of BC in patients irradiated in the head and neck region.…
The intraoral-stent is a mouth-opening device which may be used during oral cancer radiotherapy (RT) with the intention of decreasing unnecessary irradiation in normal adjacent tissue. However, only few studies have reported the use this device up to now. To evaluate the impact of the intraoral-stent in order to spare normal adjacent tissue from the radiation dose and prevent oral complic…
