Abstract

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is sixth most common neoplasm worldwide and despite the progress made in the diagnosis and treatment, the survivalof these patients has not improved significantly^[1]. Therefore a vigilant search for newer diagnostic and prognostic markers along with fresh molecular targets is required for the prevention & cure of HNSCCs and related tumors.
