Abstract
Squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity is the sixth most common malignancy worldwide. A skilled multidisciplinary team is required for effective management and the best results. The contemporary practice of managing oral squamous cell carcinoma often requires a multimodal approach of surgery and chemoradiation. But despite this aggressive multimodal treatment, 40% to 60% of the patients will have a relapse. This paper briefly outlines the recent advances and innovations in diagnosis, management strategy, and prognostic aspects of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The most crucial objective of a biomarker in cancer is the accurate detection of the tiniest amount of tumor cells prior to growth, when the patient's clinical prognosis and outcome are still favorable.
