Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the results of surgery for buccal mucosa cancer at Vietnam National Cancer Hospital. Subjects and methods: A retrospective cohort study followed up on 50 patients with buccal mucosa cancer who were treated at K Hospital from January 2017 to June 2022. Results: The mean of age 55.6 ±  8.3; the male/female ratio: 1/1; 72.4% of the patients had a risk profile (consumption of alcohol, tobacco, and/or betel); 42.0% of the patients had a stage II; Histopathology: squamous cell carcinoma: 94.0%; 59.6% moderate differentiation; DOI >5 mm: 60%; 100% of the patients underwent peroral wide excision of the lesion with reconstruction by free flaps or pedicled flaps; selective neck dissection: 70.0%; Complications: submandibular palsy: 2.0%; flap necrosis: 2.0%; 82.0% had good surgical results. Conclusion: Buccal mucosa cancer occurs most commonly in older adults. risk factors such as alcohol, tobacco, or chewing betel nuts. Surgery was the mainstay of treatment for buccal mucosa cancer. Besides the fact that negative surgical margins can be achieved, the results of pedicled flaps or free flap reconstruction are a top concern that affect the patient’s quality of life.
