This review presents data on incidence, mortality, survival and trends in cancers of the lip, oral cavity and oropharynx using available recent data sources around the world. Oral and pharyngeal cancer, grouped together, is the sixth most common cancer in the world. The review focuses primarily on several high-risk countries in an attempt to gain insight into the geographic variations in the incidence of this cancer in the globe and to relate the high incidence in some populations to their life style. With an estimated half a million cases around the globe and the rising trends reported in some populations, particularly in the young, urgent public health measures are needed to reduce the incidence and mortality of oral and oropharyngeal cancer.
本综述利用全球现有最新数据源，介绍了唇癌、口腔癌和口咽癌的发病率、死亡率、生存率和趋势数据。口腔癌和口咽癌合在一起是全球第六大常见癌症。本综述主要侧重于一些高风险国家，试图深入了解全球范围内这种癌症发病率的地域差异，并将某些人群的高发病率与其生活方式联系起来。全球估计有 50 万例病例，一些人群的发病率呈上升趋势，特别是在年轻人中，因此需要采取紧急公共卫生措施来降低口腔和口咽癌的发病率和死亡率。
