Abstract

The prognosis has been studied of 125 patients with squamous-cell carcinoma of the gums who were treated during the period 1958–1969 at the Karolinska Hospital. The material was classified according to the TNM-system (Geneva, 1968) and divided into 3 well-defined clinical stages. The determinate 5-year-survival rate was 73% in stage I (T1-T2), 41% in stage II (T3-T4) and 17% in stage III (patients with clinical metastases).
