ABSTRACT Aim The aim of the study was to evaluate the proliferative index (PI) at their invasive front of oral cancer and their association with Bryne's grades of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and compare the PI with lymph node metastasis, site of involvement, and habits. Materials and methods The Ki-67 antigen expression was immunohistochemically evaluated in a total of 102 cases that included the histopathologically diagnosed archival specimens of OSCCs. They were subdivided by Bryne's histopathological grading into grade I (40 cases), grade II (32 cases), and grade III (30 cases). The nucleus with brown stain was considered positive. Cells were counted under 400× magnification. The proliferative activity thus determined was then expressed as a percentage of Ki-67 labeling index (Ki-67 LI) positive cells. Results A stepwise increase in the mean Ki-67 LI was found from grade I to III squamous cell carcinoma, thus correlating with the histological grading. In addition, there was a higher PI seen in cases associated with metastatic lymph node, which concords with the higher biologic aggressiveness and poor prognosis of the lesion. Conclusion The present study shows a definitive correlation of Ki-67 antigen with the Bryne's histological grading, all the parameters of Bryne's grading for OSCC and lymph node status of the patient proving its association as an effective tool to grade the tumors and finally read the prognosis of the tumor. Clinical significance Cell proliferation is regarded as one of the most important biologic mechanisms in oncogenesis. The role of cell proliferation in tumor progression has been inferred in studies concerned with human cancer by comparing the PI of normal tissue, preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions. The Ki-67 antigen-labeled cells can prove to be an effective aid to grade the tumors. It might be possible to standardize and objectify tumor grading among pathology laboratories.

Background and objective: Marginal or segmental resection of bone are often required for tumor removal in oral squamous cell carcinoma patients to secure adequate margin. The present study aims to evaluate the surgical outcome and post-operative complication of both group of patients and also assesses the local control of the disease in the oral cavity. Methods: In this prospective study, 32 patients who were treated with marginal or segmental jaw resection for oral squamous cell carcinoma of the lower part of oral cavity was undertaken within September 2008 to August 2013.There were 9 males and 23 females with a median age of 40.5 years. Twenty patients underwent marginal and 12 patients had segmental resection of the mandible. Distribution of the subject by age, sex, primary site of lesion, pathologic tumor stage, presence of mandibular invasion, pathologic cervical lymph node stage and feature of post- operative complications were analyzed prospectively. Results: According to this study, the mandible was involved in 83.3% of patient with segmental resection and 15% of patients with marginal resection. Buccal mucosa was mostly involved site in marginal group (60%) and retro molar trigon was highly involved site with segmental group (41.7%). In marginal group 30% cases was involved with stage1 and 70% was stage2; in segmental group 25% cases were stage2 and 67.7% were stage3. Statistically significant difference was exist in pathological cervical node stage(p<0.05). Mandibular invasion was significantly more in segmental group (p<0.05). Soft tissue surgical margins were positive in 4 patients (20%) in the marginal group and in 3 patients (25%) in the segmental group. Negative neck lymph node was found in 20 (63%) cases and positive neck node was found in 12 (37%) cases, of which four patients, including 2(15%) cases in the marginal group and 2(8.3%) cases in the segmental group was died. Trismus and mastication problems were found higher in segmental than marginal resection group. Conclusion: Marginal resection of mandible is effective for patient with oral squamous cell carcinoma in the early stage. Post-operative outcome and local control of disease in segmental group were slightly higher than marginal group. Positive surgical margin status and bone invasion was found as the most important predictor of local control of the diseases in patient with oral squamous cell carcinoma.

A cross sectional study of 29 cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma with or without  cervical lymph node metastasis was done among Bangladeshi patients from January 2006 to December 2007. Majority of the study subjects (34.5%) belonged to the age group of 40-49 years. 58.6% of the study subjects were male, while remaining 41.4% of them were female. 51.7% of the lesions were located in the alveolar ridge where the other common sites were buccal mucosa (27.6%) and retro molar area (13.8%). Half of the study subjects (51.7%) were habituated to betel quid chewing followed by 37.9% and 10.3% were habituated to smoking and betel quid-smoking respectively. Grade I lesions was most prevalent (75.9%) in the study subjects.  Majority of cases presented with Stage IV lesions (55.2%). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value & accuracy of clinical palpation method for determining metastatic cervical lymph nodes were 93.33%, 64.29%, 73.68%, 90% and 79.3% respectively. Careful and repeated clinical palpation plays important role in evaluation of cervical lymph nodes though several modern techniques may help additionally in the management of oral cancer.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/updcj.v1i2.13978 Update Dent.
