唇癌应早期诊断和治疗。它最常出现在中老年男性的下唇。其病因类似于非黑色素性皮肤癌，即慢性日晒。尽管接受了治疗，仍有一部分患者将经历延迟复发，十分之一的患者将死于唇癌。临床医生需要了解这种疾病的自然病史。本文报告两例接受放射治疗的唇鳞状细胞癌病例，并对其进行讨论，以强调唇癌治疗中的重要方面。
Lip cancer should be diagnosed and treated at an early stage. It most often presents on the lower lip of middle‐aged to elderly males. The aetiology is similar to non‐melanona skin cancer, that is, chronic sun exposure. Despite treatment, a proportion of patients will experience delayed relapse and one in 10 will die from lip cancer. Clinicians need to be aware of the natural history of this disease. Two cases of squamous cell carcinoma of the lip treated by radiotherapy are presented and discussed to highlight important aspects in the management of lip cancer.
