Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition that can have a profound impact on an individual's health and well-being. Its etiology is commonly known to be habit induced, such as tobacco consumption, smoking, or alcohol abuse. Apart from these etiologies, certain factors that lead to OSCC are also present but are less frequently encountered in hospitals and clinics. However, these non-habitual factors, with their pathogenesis, can lead to OSCC, which may be confusing to certain medical practitioners. This article discusses the various non-habitual causes that can lead to OSCC, as well as their pathophysiology, molecular expression, and related indicators and prognostic factors.
口腔鳞状细胞癌(OSCC)是一种严重且可能危及生命的疾病,会对个人的健康和福祉产生深远影响。其病因通常已知是由习惯引起的,如烟草消费、吸烟或酗酒。除了这些病因外,某些导致OSCC的因素也存在,但在医院和诊所中较少见。然而,这些非习惯性因素及其发病机制可导致OSCC,这可能会使某些医学从业者感到困惑。本文讨论了可导致OSCC的各种非习惯性病因,以及它们的病理生理学、分子表达、相关指标和预后因素。
