Introduction: Oral cancer continues to be one of the malignant neoplasms on the rise, according to its incidence and the significant number of deaths each year. In this sense, health programs have been developed for the population that guarantee screening, prevention and care of the diseases.
Objective: To characterize patients with oral cancer at the María Curie Oncological Teaching Provincial Hospital in Camagüey province during the period 2018-2022.
Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out in the María Curie Oncological Teaching Provincial Hospital of Camagüey province in a universe of 218 patients, who attended the Head and Neck Surgery Service from 2018 to 2022 and had oral cancer as diagnosis. The sample was limited to 113 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results: Oral cancer predominated in the male sex with 89 (78.76%) in the years 2019 and 2021. There was a higher incidence in patients with white skin with 97 (85.84%) and the year 2021 showed a higher number of these patients. The tongue was the most affected with 43 (30.05%) patients, followed by the floor of the mouth in 18 (15.92%) and the gums in 17 (15.04%) patients. According to stage there was a predominance of stage IV in 61 (53.98%) patients, followed by stage III with 18.58% of patients diagnosed.
Conclusions: Male sex prevailed in the 60 to 79 years age group and white skin patients were the most affected. The location of the lesions manifested with greater incidence on the tongue and stages IV and III of the disease are the most representative at the time of diagnosis.
