EPIDEMIOLOGY OF MALIGNANT TUMORS OF THE ORAL MUCOUS MEMBERS ACCORDING TO STATISTICAL DATA OF THE NATIONAL CANCER REGISTER (POLTAVA REGION 2019-21)

Abstract

The aim of the work was to study the dynamics of morbidity of malignant neoplasms of the maxillofacial site for 2019-2021 in Poltava and the region. Object and methods. The object of the study was statistical data on the incidence of malignant neoplasms of the maxillofacial region of the National Cancer Registry of the Poltava Regional Clinical Oncological Dispensary in the Poltava region for 2019-2021. Results. A study of the prevalence of malignant neoplasms of the oral mucosa in Poltava and Poltava region was conducted in order to assess the completeness and quality of registration of patients with primary and neglected cases, the number of fatal outcomes before one year and mortality. The types of complex treatment performed were studied. Cases in which patients were denied treatment were analyzed. According to the results of the analysis of morbidity dynamics we revealed that cancer of the oral cavity mucosa and cheek mucosa, alveolar growths, hard and soft palate, floor of the mouth occur most frequently. Lip cancer is 1.3 times less frequent, submandibular salivary gland cancer 1.8 times less frequent, submandibular salivary gland cancer 2 times less frequent. The incidence of malignant neoplasms of the oral mucosa has increased by 75.57%. The transmission of these diseases leads to the problem of disablement of patients and causes difficulties in the process of further rehabilitation. The reasons that influenced the abandonment of cancer patients with oncopathology of the maxillofacial region, most often are incomplete dispensary examination of patients, errors in the clinical examination. Due to creation of computer-assisted data system of the National cancer register, monitoring of malignant tumors of maxillae, mandible and facial area become possible as well as updating of data on each patient that is accounted for, treatment that he is being administered and the last date he was clinically examined. All that enables the rational supervision on the patients with pre-malignancies and planning of technical and staff supply of oncology service. Conclusions. Besides, in cases of early diagnosis, it is possible to administer complex treatment with primary modeling of operations that will be ensued by prosthesis installment for adequate patient rehabilitation.
