Abstract

Oral cancer includes a group of neoplasms affecting any region of the oral cavity, pharyngeal regions and salivary glands.This term is used interchangeably with oral squamous cell carcinoma which represents the most frequent of all oral neoplasms.Despite the advances of therapeutic approaches, percentages of morbidity and mortality of OSCC have not improved significantly during the last 30 years.Database search was done in Pubmed,Cochrane library.Grey literature was also included.Search terms such as oral squamous cell carcinoma, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, lymphocyte-monocyte ratio and platelet-lymphocyte ratio and prognosis were used.The aim of this review was to investigate whether haematological parameters can be used as an indicator for long term prognosis following treatment for oral squamous cell carcinoma.
