Head and neck cancer refers to a group of malignant diseases that originate from the oral cavity, nasal cavity, nose, paranasal sinuses, larynx, pharynx, salivary glands, or skin of the face. Some of the most prominent causes of head and neck cancer include consumption of alcohol and tobacco, betel nut, infection, gastroesophageal reflux disease, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and exposure to UV and certain chemicals. The most common symptoms are persistent pain in the throat, a sensation of pain or difficulty when swallowing, jaw pain, a change in voice, persistent pain in the ear, etc. Most of the head and neck cancers are caused due to squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs).

Treatment for head and neck cancer is planned as per the specific needs and general health of individual patients. Treatment and management may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex principles and practices in head and neck oncology. It will help the readers in keeping pace with the rapid changes in this field.
