[The evaluation of radiotherapy in the treatment of epidermoid carcinoma of the oral cavity].

An effect of radiotherapy, in 442 patient presented with epidermoid carcinoma of the oral cavity was studied. No significant prolongation of life-span was observed in patients subjected to radiotherapy both prior and after surgical procedure. Reoccurrence of carcinoma was less likely and appeared later in patients treated with radiotherapy than in patients subjected only to surgery.

[Prognostic value of metastases to lymph nodes of the neck planoepithelial carcinoma of the oral cavity].

On the basis of 442 cases that had been subjected to a resection the neck's lymphatic system, we concluded, that metastases of the planoepithelial cancers into neck lymph nodes occurred in No-15.7%, N1-30.6%, N2-60%, N3-75.4%. The radical neck dissection on the tumor side, as well as on the opposite side helped to achieve the most better treatment results than after resection of the lymph nodous suprahyioidei only. The confirm metastases of the cancer into lymph nodous was observed in 18.3%. The surgery was the best way to treat it; 30% of the patients, who were treated in this way lived for a next 5 years.

[Treatment of open bite connected with tongue overgrowth by means of surgical-orthodontic method].

A case of 17 years old female patient with the open bite connected with dimension enlargement and changed function of the tongue has been described. After the operation of the tongue by means of Reinwald method an active upper base with barrier and rubber traction between paracentral upper and lower incisors have been applied. The open bite was eliminated within one year the speech and appearance of the patient improved at the same time.

[Electromyographic estimation of functional state of the mouth slit's muscles after the lip reconstruction by means of various methods].

The authors present the results of functional state examination of the orbicular muscle of the mouth in 28 patients operated by means of Abbe's and Karapandzicz's method because of vermilion border's carcinoma. It has been found that no features of neurogenic damage of the muscle were present in the group of patients operated by means of Karapandzicz's method and the return to its proper function was more frequent. It points out that Karapandzicz's method is less invasive in comparison with Abbe's method.

[Skin neoplasms of the face--diagnosis and possibilities of surgical treatment].

Experiences are presented based on the observation and treatment by surgical methods of 360 patients with facial cutaneous carcinoma in a period of 16 years. The group comprised 57% men and 43% women. Over half the patients had the lesions situated on the nose. In the remaining cases the tumour developed on the cheek (19%), temple (11%), eyelids (6%), forehead (5%) and skin of the lips (3%). Particular therapeutic difficulties were encountered in cases of lesions situated in the medial angle of the palpebral fissure. In 3 cases extensive craniofacial resection with orbitectomy was done for advanced malignant lesions. In 71% of cases basal cell carcinoma was the cause, and in 29% spinocellular carcinoma was diagnosed. Metastases to regional lymph nodes removed during the operation were demonstrated in 16 cases, exclusively caused by spinocellular carcinoma. The problem of surgical safety margin and the main problems of reconstructive procedures in surgical treatment of facial cutaneous carcinoma are discussed.

[Role of alcoholism in the development of upper gastrointestinal tumors].

A preliminary report on the results of studies on the relationship between alcohol abuse and upper gastrointestinal tumours is presented. Alcohol abuse was measured with the aid of a questionnaire. GGTP and mean MCV were determined. Within the 1st September, 1986--30th September, 1987, 75 patients with the cancer of the upper gastrointestinal tract and 107 patients with benign lesions to this area were examined. Alcohol abuse was found in 33% of patients with the cancer and 19% of patients with benign lesions to the upper gastrointestinal tract. This difference is statistically significant (p greater than 0.05). The results of GGTP and MCV values were statistically insignificant in both groups. The authors have found more marked correlation of alcohol abuse with the cancer of the upper gastrointestinal tract in relation to the oral cavity and pharynx than the stomach. Further studies including larger groups of patients are recommended.
