In recent years, following the introduction of reconstructive procedures such as major pedicled flap or free flap transfer, an increase in the indications for surgery for treatment of oral cancer has resulted in a marked improvement of patient survival rates. At present it is no exaggeration to say that any tissue defects of the oral cavity following tumor ablation can immediately be reconstructed. However, functional deficit is one of the major factors that adversely affects patients' quality of life, simply because morphological reconstruction of the oral cavity results in restricted movement and lack of function. Thus, if possible, it is better that organ preservation surgery be tailored to suit individual patients.In this paper, we reviewed the clinicopathological studies on indications for organ preservation surgery for oral squamous cell carcinoma that have been performed in our department.
