Oral cavity and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma—an update (2015, background): “OC-SCC and HPV-negative OP-SCC are largely consistent with tobacco use trends.(21,22) Nevertheless, the underlying cause for increased tongue cancer in the United States and other regions is unclear.”
Cancers with increasing incidence trends in the United States: 1999 through 2008 (2012, background): “Despite the concerning trends in increasing incidence rates, survival rates from HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer are generally higher than those for HPV-unrelated oropharyngeal cancers.(7) By stage at diagnosis, 5-year survival rates for HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer increased over time (Table 3”
Incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV) positive tonsillar carcinoma in Stockholm, Sweden: An epidemic of viral‐induced carcinoma? (2009, result): “The proportion of HPV-positive tonsillar cancer was 23% in the 1970s, 28% in the 1980s, 57% in the 1990s and 68% in 2000–200212 A later similar report by Chaturvedi et al.13 showed an increase in the proportion of potentially HPV-related, oropharyngeal cancers in the United States between 1973 and 2”
