| Abstract | Head and neck in situ carcinoma is seldom diagnosed. Our knowledge about in situ cancer is limited. This study describes the epidemiology and prognosis of head and neck in situ cancer in Thuringia, Germany. We analyzed the cancer data of the Thuringian cancer registry database from 1996 to 2005. The database contained 3821 patients with primary head and neck cancer. Thirty-four patients (0.88%) had an in situ carcinoma. They were evaluated for patient's characteristics, tumor stage, incidence, treatment and trends in overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). During 1996-2005, the average annual incidence of head and neck in situ carcinoma was 0.14 per 100,000 persons. Half of the cases were localized in the larynx. The patients were treated by local excision. Six patients (18%) developed a local recurrence. Only one recurrent tumor was diagnosed in early stage (rT1), but the other five tumors in advanced stage (rT3/rT4). The median time to recurrence was 27.43 months. For all 34 patients with in situ carcinoma, the 5-year OS was 84% and the 5-year RFS 60.4%. OS was better for laryngeal in situ cancer than for oral cavity or pharyngeal in situ cancer (p=0.031). The surveillance of patients with head and neck in situ carcinoma after treatment should be performed like in patients with invasive cancer, because nearly one fifth of patients developed a recurrence, predominantly in advanced stage. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
