Tongue Cancer

Tongue cancer is one of the most common sites of head and neck malignancy. Smoking, drinking alcohol, and, more recently, human papilloma virus infection are recognized as the major risk factors for the development of tongue cancer. Most of the time, surgery is the recommended therapy, with radiation and chemotherapy also having important roles. This activity outlines the evaluation and management of tongue cancer and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in improving care for patients with this condition.
