EPIDEMIOLOGIC SURVEY OF CAMPAIGN DATA FROM PREVENTION AND EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF MOUTH CANCER IN SALVADOR Bahia State - BRASIL
Introduction: Mouth cancer is considered a public health problem due to high rates of mortality and morbidity. Knowing about disease risk factors and clinical signs are the basis for prevention and early diagnosis. Public campaigns, such as screening and population awareness, were carried out, although studies challenged the reason for not reaching the main risk group. Methodology: This is a retrospective observational study, in which a survey of the epidemiologic data of public campaigns conducted by the Federal University of Bahia (FUBA) between 2005 and 2018 in Salvador and the metropolitan region was carried out.

Challenging the Requirement to Treat the Contralateral Neck in Cases With >4 mm Tumor Thickness in Patients Receiving Postoperative Radiation Therapy for Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Oral Tongue or Floor of Mouth
Conclusion:
While delivering postoperative RT for oral tongue or floor of mouth cancer with pathologic neck stage N0-2b, the risk of not irradiating the contralateral neck is very low when the primary tumor does not cross the midline, regardless of other factors at the primary site, such as TT and DOI.
