Resumo

O carcinoma do bordo da língua é um dos carcinomas mais frequentes da cavidade oral, manifestando-se em 37 % dos casos. 90 % destes correspondem a carcinoma de células escamosas (CCE). A sobrevida é estimada em 5 anos, sendo inversamente proporcional à sua detecção. Daí a importância de detectar as lesões em fase inicial. O Objectivo deste trabalho é discutir qual o tipo de tratamento mais eficaz para os estadios iniciais do carcinoma da língua que permita uma sobrevida prolongada com o mínimo de sequelas.

Abstract

The carcinoma of the border of the tongue is one of the most common carcinomas of the oral cavity, makes up 37 % of all oral tumors. 90 % of these correspond to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The survival rate is estimated at 5 years and is inversely proportional to its detection. Hence the importance of detecting early-stage lesions. The objective of this paper is to discuss what type of treatment is more effective for the early stages of carcinoma of the tongue to allow a prolonged survival with minimal sequelae.
