Many researchers have been reported recent trends for rising incidence particularly related to cancer of the tongue in young people. The purpose of this study is to exam the changes of OSCC(oral squamous cell carcinoma) incidence distribution. After InstitutionalReview Board approval, 1,345cases of OSCC were reviewed from 1993 to 2012 at the department of Oral Pathology at the Universityof Seoul National Dental Hospital with respect to gender, age, locations. As the results, the most prevalence ages were between 45-69years old(mean:59.68). There is a noticeable incidence on the eighth decade of life. There are no changes of incidence distributionon sex(male:female=69:31) at each year. The most common incidence area was tongue at 1993 but the mandible was the most popularsite after 2001. Comparing the incidence rates of the predilection sites over and under 44 years old patients, among patients under44 years old showed the tongue is the common site steadily. On the other hand, there is a significant increase on the mandible inthe over 44 years old patients. In conclusion, this study showed similar results on overall sex distribution and median ages. The trendsof locations over 20 years have been increased on the old adult’s mandible. Also, tongue is the common site for the young adultsconstantly. There are needs for further studies to elucidate the behind etiology. In addition, the true impact of young age on OSCCclinical behavior will remain difficult to determine unless intranational and multi-institutional databases will be combined. KCI Citation Count: 2
