Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a common cancer of the oral cavity. It mainly affects males more than females, with middle-aged to elderly people being the most susceptible. In this report, we present a case of an 88-year-old male with a mass on the posterior-lateral border of the tongue. After thorough clinical, histopathological, and imaging assessments, an SCC was confirmed. Because of the patient’s age, the oncologist has chosen immunotherapy over invasive options of surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy.
Keywords: cancer, oral, squamous cell carcinoma, tongue.
