State-by-State Reports Browse by Topic Oral Cancer Each year, more than 30,000 new cases of cancer of the oral cavity and pharynx are diagnosed and over 8,000 deaths due to oral cancer occur. The 5-year survival rate for these cancers is only about 50 percent. Mortality from oral cancer is nearly twice as high in some minorities (especially black males) as it is in whites. Methods used to treat oral cancers (surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy) are disfiguring and costly. Preventing high risk behaviors, that include cigarette, cigar or pipe smoking, use of smokeless tobacco, and excessive use of alcohol are critical in preventing oral cancers. Early detection is key to increasing the survival rate for these cancers.

According to WHO, more than 4,13,000 cancers of the mouth and pharynx were occuring per annum in 1998. Among oral cancer patients alone, only 53 percent of those will be diagnosed this year are expected to survive for 5 years. 3000-4000 registered full blown oral cancer cases are reported daily. These statistics make oral cancer one of the deadliest diseases , yet it can be 90 percent curable when detected early. The single most important factor in saving these lives is early detection. Figures in Pakistan are more alarming because of poor oral hygiene, un education, poverty,lack of professional facilities and public un-awareness. In Pakistan, younger generation is more at risk because of massive usage of smoking, pan, gutka and supari. Oral cancer lesions have been detected as early as 25 years of age.
