title: [Treatment of mouth cancer. General principles as well as surgical aspects].
abstract: An overview is presented of the various treatment modalities in head and neck cancer, the emphasis being on oral cancer. Evaluation of the neck with regard to the possible presence of regional lymph node metastases is an integral part of the examination and treatment of patients with oral cancer. A strong plea is made for a multidisciplinary approach in the treatment and rehabilitation of this patient group.
