    Tumors of the oral cavity and the throat represent with 3,8 %  of all cancer new illnesses the 6. most frequent tumor illness with men. In 2016, 4180 women and 9720 men in Germany were affected by this tumor entity. The most important risk factors for the development of squamous cell carcinomas in the oral cavity and throat are tobacco and alcohol consumption as well as chronic infections with human papilloma viruses.

    After radiological imaging, histological securing and performance of a panendoscopy to determine the tumor extent and to exclude a synchronous second carcinoma, the patient is presented in the interdisciplinary head and neck tumor conference and an individual therapy for the patient is defined. For larger tumors, in addition to primary radiochemotherapy, there is the option of surgical tumor resection including removal of cervical lymph nodes, plastic reconstruction and adjuvant radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy.

    In this movie we report on a 47-year-old patient with a cT3 cN2c cM0 oropharyngeal carcinoma of the soft palate. After enoral tumor resection and intraoperative frozen section analysis, functionally selective neck dissection of Level II-V on both sides and plastic reconstruction of the oropharynx with a microvascularly anastomosed fasciocutaneous flap of the forearm was performed. Adjuvant radiotherapy was accomplished 3 weeks postoperatively.

    The film illustrates the interdisciplinary oncological concept of therapy of an advanced oropharyngeal carcinoma consisting of surgical resection, plastic reconstruction and adjuvant therapy.
