title: Recent advances in the molecular biology of head and neck tumours.
abstract: Our knowlcwdge about the genetic basis of head and neck tumours is accumulating fast. This article reviews the important advances in this area over the last decade and its implications for the future. Newer aspects of gene therapy, molecular staging and understanding head and neck carcinogenesis on a molecular level are outlined.
